Steps

  1. Open SCAQMD Rule 1113 Table of Standards at aqmd.gov/home/rules-compliance/compliance/vocs/architectural-coatings/tos or its linked PDF
  2. Match the coating type to its category code (e.g., Flats = category 13, Nonflat Coatings = categories 26/27/28, Primers/Sealers/Undercoaters = category 30, Industrial Maintenance = category 19)
  3. Read the current VOC limit in grams per liter, less water and exempt compounds, for that category, noting the effective-date column since limits stepped down over 2014/2016/2019
  4. Check the small-container-exemption column, since some categories lost that exemption on later effective dates
