We have a product that will be used on the metal piping of a power generator. The piping will become hot during use, therefore the coating needs to be resistant to the heat.
Not sure what would be the VOC ceiling limit for such product, couldn't find an appropriate category under IEQc4.1 where to fit it, since none of the categories address the "resistance to heat" function...
Ideas anybody?
Thanks!

HIGH-TEMPERA TURE INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE COA TINGS are industrial maintenance coatings formulated for or applied to substrates exposed continuously or intermittently to temperatures above 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Max VOC 420 g/l
Find the product you want to use on the Master Painters Institute http://www.paintinfo.com/
they should have the category, cross reference in their specify green section.
Good luck.

Hi John, I have the same understanding as you! However, there is no "High-temperature industrial maintenance coatings" category in the recent version of the template (V04).
Anyone can shed a light please? That's a tricky one!

We don't have a v4 form but in v3 there is an 'Other' category that you could use.

Hi Susan
Actually if you go in the Sample Forms Download inside LEED Online, there is a V4 form for IEQc4.2 which indeed is the form version that our Project will have to fill out.

Of course! I happened to be in LO at the time. Glad you found a work around.
