Leigh - very few products like that have MSDS sheets because they're not targeted to a regulated market. Garrett hit the nail on the head. And even industrial products which do have MSDS sheets aren't required to list every ingredient, but only hazardous ones; and even some of those can be left out if they're classified as a trade secret. Gosh, until we had all this stuff on software, we kept two entire trailers of MSDS sheets just outside the warehouse due to all the military business we did. We were also surrounded by big pharmaceutical and biotech labs who also required everything up front, documented. I know the ropes. And the number on rule is, that if you don't know the effect of something, thoroughly test it first! And even if it works, make sure the next time around, the product hasn't changed due to aging or storage issues, which has also been pointed out above. Back when I was doing faux
finishing on remodels of historic homes - having to match wood grain on access holes or panels for rewiring, plumbing acess etc, I learned how various oils and shellacs age-polymerized, and induced that kind of thing to create
special matching effects.
