Firstly, I would attempt to contact the manufacturer and request the VOC content in g/l.
If not, see if you can do the math with one of these VOC calculators:

Hi Guillermo,
Sounds like an aerosol. Under adhesives, this kind of percentage is permitted. I have never seen it in a coating. Is this an interior product? Applied on-site? If not, you can exclude it.

Thanks for your help guys, Michelle the product is an aerosol coating that will be used to cover the welding of the union between galvanized unistrut elements and the steel columns for instance is in the interior of the warehouse.
John, I've tried filling that calculator prior this comments and sadly nor the msds and the technical data sheet have the information enough to perform such calculation.
I'll try contacting the manufacturer to request it on g/l.
Cheers.
