Answer 2

Paint should be stored and mixed in an OSHA-approved room with adequate ventilation, ventilation hoods, fire extinguishers except unshielded electrical devices.

Step-by-step explanation:

OSHA is responsible for the enforcement of health standards in rooms. In such rooms, adequate ventilation is required to pull harmful solvent vapors out. The electrical appliances like hoods, fans, and heaters are the only approved electrical devices in the room.

Fire extinguishers are to be placed near the areas where flammable liquids are stored. Unshielded electrical devices can result in short circuits and are not allowed in an OSHA-approved room.
