I sure wouldn't use it.

Principal hazards
Toluene is toxic if swallowed or inhaled. It is also harmful in contact with the skin.
Toluene is very flammable, so presents a significant fire risk.
There is some evidence that repeated exposure to toluene may cause reproductive harm.
Safe handling
Wear safety glasses.
The working area must be well ventilated to prevent the build-up of toluene vapor.
Make sure that any sources of ignition, such as Bunsen burners, hot plates and hot air guns, are removed before you start work.
Emergency
Eye contact: Immediately flush the eye with plenty of water. Continue for at least ten minutes and call for medical help.
Skin contact: Wash off with soap and water. Remove any contaminated clothing. If the skin reddens or appears damaged, call for medical aid. Note that clothes soaked in toluene will be very flammable, so should be removed in an area in which there is no risk that they might catch fire.
If swallowed: Call for immediate medical help.
Disposal
Toluene should be stored in a "non-chlorinated waste" container for subsequent disposal.
Protective equipment
Safety glasses. If gloves are required, polyvinyl alcohol is recommended.
