actions:
❏ If fluid adheres to your skin, wash it off using large
volumes of soapy water. If you notice any reaction
developing in the affected area, consult with a
qualified physician immediately.
❏ If ink gets into your eyes, wash them out
immediately with water. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in bloodshot eyes or mild
inflammation. Consult with a qualified physician
if any other problems should develop.
❏ If fluid enters your mouth, consult with a
physician as soon as possible.
❏ If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Consult
