Mix a little water with potasium permanganate crystals (from drug store) and paint on untill desired depth of color. Don't freak out when it goes purple, it will go brown. Wash of excess, seal with wax or mineral oil. I use sandlewood oil,
love the smell. by Peter Del Raso

Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation:
Causes irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing,
shortness of breath. High concentrations can cause pulmonary edema.
Ingestion:
Ingestion of solid or high concentrations causes severe distress of
gastro-intestinal system with possible burns and edema; slow pulse; shock with
fall of blood pressure. May be fatal. Ingestion of concentrations up to 1%
causes burning of the throat, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain; 2-3% causes
anemia and swelling of the throat with possible suffocation; 4-5% may cause
kidney damage.
Skin Contact:
Dry crystals and concentrated solutions are caustic causing redness, pain,
severe burns, brown stains in the contact area and possible hardening of outer
skin layer. Diluted solutions are only mildly irritating to the skin.
Eye Contact:
Eye contact with crystals (dusts) and concentrated solutions causes severe
irritation, redness, blurred vision and can cause severe damage, possibly
permanent.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged skin contact may cause irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Chronic
manganese poisoning can result from excessive inhalation exposure to manganese
dust and involves impairment of the central nervous system. Early symptoms
include sluggishness, sleepiness, and weakness in the legs. Advanced cases have
shown symptoms of fixed facial expression, emotional disturbances, spastic
gait, and falling.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
No information found.
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never
give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention
immediately.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention immediately.
Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Fire:
Not combustible, but substance is a strong oxidizer and its heat of reaction
with reducing agents or combustibles may cause ignition. Contact with
oxidizable substances may cause extremely violent combustion.
Explosion:
Strong oxidants may explode when shocked, or if exposed to heat, flame, or
friction. Also may act as initiation source for dust or vapor explosions.
Contact with oxidizable substances may cause extremely violent combustion.
Sealed containers may rupture when heated. Sensitive to mechanical impact.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray to blanket fire, cool fire exposed containers, and to flush
non-ignited spills or vapors away from fire. Suffocating type extinguishers are
not as effective as water. Do not allow water runoff to enter sewers or
waterways.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved
self-contained breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure
demand or other positive pressure mode.
Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Clean up spills in a manner that does not disperse dust into the air. Use non-sparking tools and equipment. Reduce airborne dust and prevent scattering by moistening with water. Pick up spill for recovery or disposal and place in a closed container. US Regulations (CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number for the US Coast Guard National Response Center is (800) 424-8802.
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage and moisture. Isolate from any source of heat or ignition. Avoid storage on wood floors. Separate from incompatibles, combustibles, organic or other readily oxidizable materials. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
Airborne Exposure Limits:
- OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL): 5 mg/m3 Ceiling for manganese
compounds as Mn - ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV): 0.2 mg/m3 (TWA) for
manganese, elemental and inorganic compounds as Mn
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is
generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at
its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please
refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded, a half-face dust/mist respirator may be worn
for up to ten times the exposure limit or the maximum use concentration
specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or respirator supplier,
whichever is lowest. A full-face piece dust/mist respirator may be worn up to 50
times the exposure limit, or the maximum use concentration specified by the
appropriate regulatory agency, or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. For
emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a
full-facepiece positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING:
Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient
atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron
or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing
of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench
facilities in work area.
