Caution: PrimeLock® EPDM Primer is a water-based product which will freeze and become unusable at temperatures below 32°F. Keep EPDM Coatings containers covered when not in use. Dispose of all containers in accordance with state and local environmental regulations. Keep away from children. If ingested, DO NOT induce vomiting. Call Physician immediately.

Handling: Thoroughly read MSDS for "Disposal Considerations" in case of spills of undiluted EPDM Primer. These undiluted spills are different from the rinsate defined as the roof washings composed of diluted EPDM Primer that result from the proper use of the product according to the application guidelines. In general, during the pressure washing of a roof, one part of EPDM Primer is diluted with 300 parts of water.

Ensure proper drainage: EPDM Coatings advocates the use of prudent judgment regarding the release of roof rinsate containing EPDM Primer into the environment. Based on aquatic toxicity data, EPDM Primer is classified as of LOW CONCERN to aquatic invertebrates and fish, according to the USEPA TSCA classification criteria, i.e., the LC/EC50 > 100 mg/L. Specific for EPDM Primer, the results indicate that the lethal or effective (functional) concentration affecting 50% of the tested population is greater than 220 mg/L of EPDM Primer for fish, and aquatic invertebrates. EPDM Primer is classified as of moderate concern to algae according to USEPA TSCA classification criteria, i.e. the LC/EC50 is between 1 mg/L and 100 mg/L. Dilution of the primer with rinsate and subsequent added dilutionary capacity of receiving streams, rivers or ponds would likely buffer any potential for adverse effects.
