The guitar manufacturer has decided to roll out a new, more affordable line of guitars with special paint and a polyurethane clear coat finish.  The manufacturer anticipates a high demand for this new, cheaper guitar.  
  2. Employees will apply the special paint and finish/clear coat via a pneumatic hand sprayer.   You have just received copies of the safety data sheets for both the paint and the finish/clear coat. You see that the paint and finish/clear coat both present hazards to the eyes as well as health hazards through inhalation. Additionally, both are relatively volatile and present fire/explosion hazards from vapors and/or particulates during a pneumatic spray application.   

  3. What will be the first course of action for you to take as the safety director?
