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.

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

Interior paint's VOC

According to Green Seal Standard GS-11, Paints, 1st Edition, May 20, 1993 the VOC limit for interior flat paint is 50 grams/liter of product minus water. We have a paint which falls under this category. The problem we have is the product's technical data sheet says the VOC is lower than 50 g/L. Therefore we have a doubt whether this is acceptable or not as it does not give the exact VOC.

Magda, this sounds okay to me. You just need to be under the limit.
