S?CU? I - Products containing not more than. 1 percent of lead, as metal (Fb), and not containing compounds of antimony, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, selenium, or barium 'when soluble by stirring for 10 minutes with 5 percent hydrochloric acid at room temperature) introduced as such in the formulation of these products, and. a solvent flashing below ISO0?,

-2(a) "Do not take internally" nay be emitted from Group I except in the case of
clear liquids, such as thinners. Regardless of flash point, these clear liquids should bear appropriate Group 1 label plus warning "Do not take internally", because clear liquids may be attractive nuisances or mistaken for beverages.
(b) Flash point determinations, in all cases, refer to Tag. Open Cup Method, as specified in ASTM Method D 1311-511.
(c) Products classified in Group I which contain "odorless" solvents must be labeled with the appropriate Group I labels, but the warning worcs "Use with adequate ventilation" must be in type two points larger than the type used for the rest of the appropriate caution label and the label placed in a prominent position on the container.
(d) The percent of lead is determined as lead metal (Pb) based on the total solids of the paint.
GROUP II - Products containing more than 1 percent of lead as metal (Pb) in a compound (see i?ote (b) below), or containing a compound of antimony, arsenic, cad mium, mercury, selenium or barium (when soluble by stirring for 10 minutes with 5 percent hydrochloric add at room temperature) introduced as such in the formula tion of these prodicts, and containing solvents of the following flash points t
Flash Point above 80F.

(a) The percent of lead is determined as lead metal (Fb) based on the total solids of the paint*
(b) When more than 1 percent of lead is the only harmful compound used in the prodict, the words, "Contains lead or other compounds harmful if eater." in the ^jpllcable Group II label may be changed to "Contains more than 1 percent lead (Fb)". Furthermore, when this wording is used, the words "Harmful if eaten" cuat appear in the text of the label.

when harmful substances, other tiian those included in Group II are used in paint, due to for:.:ulation variables, it is impossible-to establish a general warning label. The paint manufacturer is cautioned to alert himself to such hazards and use an appropriate precautionary label,
