MR2.2 - Table 24 and Table 25 for Paints and Coatings. On Table 24 is describes Interior Walls AND Ceilings AND Millwork. The description on Table 24 under Emission Specs says refer to Table 25, but when you get to Table 25, Millwork is not mentioned. I am assuming that the Nonflat: 150g/l is the one that would set the limit for Millwork, but just need clarification.

Ruling

Table 25 describes the requirements for each type of paint, not the application. If the millwork is painted with nonflat architectural paint, then the VOC content should not exceed 150g/L. The heading on Table 25 should be changed from "Component" to "Paint Type". Also, the first row should not only apply to interior walls and ceilings. The description should be changed to "Architectural paints, coatings, and primers applied to interior elements".
