FAQs about IEQc4.2 :

How should graphic arts paint or coatings be categorized?

The standards referenced for this credit have been updated since those listed in the LEED Reference Guide – does our project need to follow the latest SCAQMD Rules and Green Seal editions, or the ones listed in the reference guide?

How should handheld aerosol spray paints be handled?

What are the VOC limits for primers? They seem to be listed in both GS-11 and SCAQMD Rule 1113.

According to credit language, does it mean, that paints and coatings not applied on site (steel structure painted somewhere elese - in a workshop) do not need to be evaluated?

Petr, You are correct - only site-applied paints and coatings need to be low-emitting to gain the credit. It would be good for the indoor air quality though if even the off-site applied paints and coatings were low-emitting.
