Natural ambering or discoloring in the can may occur over time. Although there may be changes of color in the can as the product ages, this will have little to no effect on the product during application. Storing in locations above recommended room temperatures could accelerate ambering.

Ammonia cleaners should not be used for cleaning the finish surfaces. This may accelerate discoloration. Please note that, as with any other pre-catalyzed product this material contains, and has the potential to emit, formaldehyde (CAS# 50-00-0). As per the US Department of Labor Standard 29 CFR 1910.1048 covering formaldehyde, section (d)(1)(i) states that "Each employer who has a workplace covered by this standard shall monitor employees to determine their exposure to formaldehyde."
