WORK INSTRUCTIONSHow to Recondition Used Paint • Materials Needed • protective gloves • chemical-resistant gloves • chemical splash goggles • glass jar with tight-fitting lid www.pfaet.com
WORK INSTRUCTIONS *Do not recondition used paint thinner in a beverage or other container that may be mistaken for food or drink. *Recondition paint thinner in a well-ventilated area inaccessible to workers. *Keep lids tightly sealed. *Do not smoke or drink alcoholic beverages while working with paint thinner. *Recondition paint thinner in an area away from sources of heat, spark, flame or ignition. www.pfaet.com
WORK INSTRUCTIONS *Avoid inhalation of vapors. *If you can smell it, you are breathing in paint thinner vapors, so increase the amount of ventilation in the work area. *If possible, work outdoors. *If working outdoors is not possible, wearing an appropriate respirator is recommended. *Always handle the glass jar containing paint thinner with caution to avoid breakage. www.pfaet.com
Procedures to Recondition Used Paint Thinner • Store the glass container away from sources of heat, spark, flame or ignition for several weeks to months until the paint sludge settles to the bottom. • Carefully pour the clean solvent off the top. This solvent can be reused. www.pfaet.com
Procedures to Recondition Used Paint Thinner • Small amounts of used paint thinner can be poured into oil-based paint or stain of the same tint. Mix the thinned paint or stain for a second coat or another project. • For larger quantities, pour the used paint thinner into a glass container. Fasten the lid tightly. Label the container with the type of paint thinner and the date. Write a clearly visible warning, such as the words "DANGER," and "DO NOT OPEN." www.pfaet.com
Procedures to Handle Paint Thinner Sludge • If possible, save the sludge in the tightly-sealed glass container for a household hazardous waste collection. • If a household hazardous waste collection is not available, remove the lid and allow the remaining paint sludge to dry completely. This option should only be recommended if local air pollution officials approve. www.pfaet.com
Procedures to Handle Paint Thinner Sludge • Do not solidify paint thinner sludge in the house, garage or where there is source of heat, spark, flame or ignition. These sources include water heaters, light switches, pilot lights and motors. Volatile and flammable chemicals can concentrate in an inadequately ventilated room and explode or cause a fire. www.pfaet.com
Procedures to Handle Paint Thinner Sludge • When all of the liquid has evaporated, the hardened sludge may be discarded in the trash destined for the landfill. This option should only be recommended if local solid waste officials approve of this type of waste going to the sanitary landfill. www.pfaet.com
Procedure for storing and handling oil and grease products • Always follow the manufacturers’ instructions for use and disposal. • Ensure that spills from broken containers are cleaned up using absorbent materials. • Which are disposed of correctly. Do not hose them down drains. www.pfaet.com
Procedure for storing and handling oil and grease products • Ensure that spills and drips from handling and transfer activities are cleaned up using. • Absorbent materials which are disposed of correctly. Do not hose them down drains. www.pfaet.com
Empty packages should be disposed of to an appropriate waste-disposal facility. On sites which have reticulated trade waste sewers, ensure that the utility network. www.pfaet.com
Operator will accept any material planned to be disposed of to the sewers. On sites which do not have reticulated trade waste sewers, collect and retain the waste for off-site disposal to an appropriate waste-disposal facility. www.pfaet.com
Site operators should provide training for all site staff in the handling and disposal of these products. www.pfaet.com
