Purpose: Spill Guard is formulated to neutralize formaldehyde in liquid form (not vapors).
Directions
-
Contain the spill. Stop the source and keep the liquid from spreading.
-
Apply Spill Guard (1:1 by volume).
Example: for 0.5 gal of formaldehyde solution, apply 0.5 gal of Spill Guard evenly over the spill. -
Allow to dwell 15–30 minutes.
Do not disturb during this time; neutralization will occur and off-gassing may be noticeable. -
Absorb and collect. Use appropriate absorbent/pads, then place waste in a sealed, labeled container.
-
Clean the area. Wash the surface with water/detergent as appropriate and dispose of waste per local regulations and your facility’s SOP/SDS.
Safety
-
Wear required PPE (gloves, eye/face protection, protective clothing/footwear, respirator).
-
Ventilate the area; increase local exhaust and keep others clear until odors dissipate.
-
Do not mix with other chemicals (e.g., bleach or other oxidizers).
For large spills or uncertainty, follow your spill response plan and contact your safety officer.
