If a lacquer or varnish meets the low VOC criteria required by IEQc4.2 but does not state that it qualifies to meet LEED requirments.
aerosol line saver
NC-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatingsposted by Lyle Axelarris on
Has anyone considered reporting the use of aerosol "line saver"? This is the stuff sprayed over chalk lines during construction to preserve construction reference lines for layout.
VOC Limit for anticorrosive paints
NC-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatingsposted by Kerem Mavioglu on
Is there any other restrictions for anti-corrosive paints other than 250 g/l VOC limit in Leed V4? Is it enough for a paint product to have lower VOC value than 250 g/l to be leed V4 compliant?

we are using polyurethane and silicone sealants and gaskets in fire barriers and glazing works. which LEED standards should I refer to? is VOC a concern? thanks
VOC Limits
NC-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatingsposted by Albert Sagrera on
Hi, I have the next question, is specified in IEQ Credit 4.2 which may not exceed the VOC that indicated in tables with dates 1993, 1997 and 2004.
LEED Silver

Are there any LEED credits for exterior paint/coatings? We are building a retail center (shell) & we have an exterior high performance exterior coating.
Form Releasing Agents VOC Requirements
NC-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatingsposted by Samantha Nourse on
I have a subcontractor proposing to use a Form Releasing Agent with a VOC level of 445 g/L. I have yet to find a hard-fast requirement for a VOC max. content for this LEED Credit.
Putty in Paints

Good day everyone. I just wanted to ask in what product type is the putty that is being used in painting to level the surface. Thanks for the response
