NC-2009 IEQc4.1: Low-Emitting Materials—Adhesives and Sealants
What is the VOC limit for a Terrazzo Sealer? I'm a bit confused about which category it falls under (Sealer, Floor Coating, or other). Owner would prefer a high sheen product but wants to comply with LEED requirements. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Do products applied to the weather barrier need to comply with VOC thresholds?
How do I determine what application my product falls under?
How is VOC % less water determined for aerosol adhesives?
Do grout and caulking need to be included, and if so, what is the application category?

I would suggest you submit this product,
Under Rule 1113; Architectural Coatings:
