Per addenda number 100000419, interior flat coatings voc allowance has drop down to 50 gr/lt, but what about interior aplications on ceiling?
Is it still allowable to have 250 gr/l on flat paints or ceiling or is it also 50?
Thank you

If you're talking about flat paint on the ceiling (e.g. on gyp board), then the limit is 50 g/L. If it's a different type of coating then it would follow whichever category is appropriate.

Thank you Mara.
Before the addenda the VOC allowance was split in wall and ceiling application. By now, should I assume this split was eliminated and either wall of ceiling application the VOC allowance is the same.
Is this correct?
