If you are placing an order with us online, you must
be on file with us, regardless of what your first order is. This means that we have
to have a signed in ink order form and a copy of your driver's license on file. If you do
not have these things on file with us, it will just delay your order. You only have to do
it once and then you can order whenever you would like. Go to our order form page to print
out the order form there. Then you can use that to fill out
and send in.
For the MSDS information buttons, please
realize these may or may not be the same ones that come with your order. We have them
included here for your convenience and they are pulled from the internet, not necessarily
from the manufacturer that we get the material from.
