CI-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatings

intumescent paints

Has anyone had any experience about VOC limits for intumescent paints for EQc4.2 (i.e. paints for fire-proofing steel)? We have these paints on the project, but cannot decide how to classify them or whether they are subject to LEED VOC limits at all.

What would be the allowable VOC limit for Intumescent Paint? I couldn't find the baseline. Appreciate your kind advice. Thanks much!
