Here is the contact information. >snip< Actually all two-part urethanes and most one-part urethanes contain isocyanates which are very bad for you. The lack of odor of some of these urethanes is because of the high solids content - i e the more solids the less solvent content (VOC). Naturally, low VOC coatings are a big plus but to limit your exposure you should try not to get any on your skin and have lots of ventilation and/or a respirator. I believe the stuff Corey uses is nearly 100% solids, hence the lack of fumes. Very durable stuff too.
