IEQ 4, Low-Emitting Materials – Group 2: Wall and Ceiling Finis

Susan Walter HDR LEEDuser Expert 1296 thumbs up July 5, 2012- 4:00 pm Assuming that this is the product that gets applied to existing ceiling tiles, I read it the same way you are, that this restoration system is a coating.

Glad you found the HC forum and hope to have you contributing.
