EC-256 titanium dioxide and methanol respirable particles warning

I have recently seen the EC-256 FM cobalt blue and fell in love with it. It's an amazing guitar playability wise and tone wise. However, on the back side on the plate covering the wiring compartment of the guitar, it says the guitar has titanium dioxide and some other harmful chemicals such as methanol whose exposure is known to lead to cancer and birth defects in the state of California. Should I worry about this and leave the guitar? I love the guitar and really want to buy it. But this is really bothering me. Please throw some light on this. Thanks.

Respirable particles means breathed in particles. I think it would only be a problem if you sanded the finish and didn’t wear a mask. Spray paint can has similar warning. If you love it BUY THE GUITAR and throw away that stupid California sticker
