Adhere to the following precautions during thermoset plastic repair:

  1. Apply protective cream to any exposed skin in order to prevent skin irritation.
  2. Wear rubber gloves.
  3. Wear safety glasses when using compressed air and when sanding.
  4. Immediately remove any mixture that comes into contact with skin. The mixture hardens quickly.
  5. Wear an air supplied respirator or dust mask when grinding or sanding.
  6. Use a sander with a vacuum attachment whenever possible in order to control any dust.
  7. Wash skin with cold water in order to alleviate minor skin irritation from glass and resin dust.
  8. Do not get any of the repair material on clothing.
  9. Use repair materials in a well-ventilated area. The repair materials may produce toxic fumes.
  10. Follow the repair material manufacturer's instructions.
  11. Close all containers after use. Dirt or moisture contamination of the repair material can result in an unsatisfactory repair.
