Medical Conditions Aggravated by OverExposure: epoxy remover is irritating to the eyes and may cause burns if not promptly removed. Prolonged or repeated contact with the skin may cause reddness, irritation, dermatitis, frostbite burns. It may also be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts. Ingestion of methylene chloride causes irritation of the gastrointestinal tract and systoms resembling those from inhalation of vapor. Damage the the liver, kidneys, and blood may result.
Eyes: flush holding eyelids open with water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician immediately.
Skin: wash affected areas with large amounts of soap and water while removing contaminated clothing. If irritation persists call a physician.

Measures to be Taken if Released or Spilled : supply maximum ventilation. Confine spill to small area; use proper protection from liquid contact and vapor inhalation. Pick up spill with absorbent. Place in a covered container for disposal.
Waste Disposal Methods: dispose of in accordance to federal, state, and local regulations.
Precautions to be taken in handling and Storage: store in closed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from fire hazards. Open containers slowly and with caution.

Larc review (1979) listed animal carcinogenic determination as indefinite for methylene chloride. A substantial risk NOTICE: to epa (TSCA, 8e) reports ahigh incidence of lung and liver tumors in mice in long-term inhalation studies-1984 NIOSH has recommended that perchloroethylene be handled as if it were a human carcigen
