Removal.
CARC paint contains isocyanate (HDI) which is highly irritating to skin and respiratory system.
High concentrations of HDI can produce symptoms of itching and reddening of skin, a burning
sensation in throat and nose and watering of the eyes. In extreme concentrations, HDI can cause
cough, shortness of breath, pain during respiration, increased sputum production and chest
tightness. The following precautions must be taken whenever using CARC paint:
NEVER weld or cut CARC-coated materials.
