VERSATILE: even to carpet & upholstery to remove not only chewing gum but oil,
tar, most resins, adhesives, printing inks, decals, tire marks, asphalt,
& most soils. Often used to de-laminate carpet backing & remove
carpet glue after carpet removal & glue remnants after sticker
removal.
EXCELLENT DEGREASING Excellent for the removal of oil & grease from equipment, trucks,
PROPERTIES: motors & metal surfaces
MADE WITH ORGANIC Chewing Gum Remover is made using d-Limonene, the major
SOLVENT: component of the oil extracted from the citrus rind during the citrus
juicing process, therefore it is much safer than other solvents.
EXCELLENT DEODORIZER: As the raw material used in this product is derived directly from
citrus fruit rind it contains a strong, natural citrus fragrance.
BIODEGRADABLE: 100% biodegradable product.
BETTER FOR THE As this product uses naturally derived solvents, this is considered
ENVIRONMENT: the ultimate in source reduction.
___________________________________________________________
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
If possible pierce the surface of the gum/tar/glue to be removed & apply by cloth or sponge. Allow time
to penetrate & gently peel back the gum/tar/glue from the surface. For stubborn adhesive markings a
nylon pad or scraper may need to be used. Wipe away residue with a damp cloth & dry off wet
patching with a dry cloth. Always test the product on an inconspicuous area of the surface to be
cleaned before use. Not suitable for use on plastic surfaces as can attack most plastics.

SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1. Description of first aid measures
Inhalation: Remove immediately from source to fresh air. Obtain medical attention if any
discomfort continues. Provide rest, warmth & fresh air. When breathing is
difficult, properly trained personnel may assist affected person by administering
oxygen.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing & wash skin with soap & water. Obtain medical
attention if irritation persists.
Eye Contact: Remove any contact lenses before rinsing. Promptly wash eyes with plenty of
water while lifting the eye lids. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes.
Immediately call a poison centre or doctor/physician.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! NEVER MAKE AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON
VOMIT OR DRINK FLUIDS! If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach
content doesn’t get into the lungs. Drink plenty of water. Get medical attention
immediately. Provide rest, warmth & fresh air.
Protection of
first aider: Avoid ingestion, contact with skin and eyes (see Section 8.)
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Inhalation: Irritation of nose, throat & airway. In case of overexposure, organic solvents may
depress the central nervous system causing headaches, fatigue, dizziness,
nausea, & intoxication.
Ingestion: May cause stomach pain or vomiting. Entry into the lungs following ingestion or
vomiting may cause chemical pneumonitis & may be fatal if enters airways
Skin contact: Prolonged contact may cause redness, irritation & dry skin.
Eye contact: Causes serious damage to eyes & mucous membranes.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
The severity of the symptoms described will vary dependant of the concentration and the
length of exposure.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam. Dry chemicals, sand, dolomite etc.
5.2 Unsuitable: N/A
5.3 Specific Hazards: Vapours are heavier than air and may spread near

vapours. Cool containers exposed to flames with
water until well after the fire is out. Keep run-off water
out of sewers and water sources.
5.4 Special Equipment for the
protection of Fire Fighters: Wear full protective clothing & breathing apparatus
