12. Ecological Information

BODY FILL 4:1 LOW V.O.C. 308 TINTING PASTES are almost insoluble in water and will float on the surface. They could cause a fire or  explosion if a large spill drained into a sewer system and would be slightly toxic  to fish if discharged to natural waters.       

Avoid discharge to sewers or waterways! At very low concentration in water (about 10 ppm) they are biodegradable in       

biological wastewater treatment plants.
