This product and some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other 

construction activities may contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause 

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

•  lead from lead-based paints,

•  crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products and,

•  arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. 

To reduce your exposure, work in a well-ventilated area and with approved safety equipment, such as 

a dust mask that is specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
