Of course, you are correct, Rich, but unfortunately, there appears to be no
such information on the label and the place where it was sold is a kind of
five-and-dime store so I'm sure they have no MSDS's, though they probably
should. There is a barcode on the side, if anyone is interested, the
numbers are 6 908137 000112. Beyond that, there is not even a
manufacturer's name.
