(1) Applying either waterborne topcoats or a combination of sealers and topcoats and strippable spray booth coatings with a VOC content equal to or less than the standards specified in Table IV:

Table IV
Emission Limits of VOC for Wood Furniture
Manufacturing Sealers, Topcoats and Strippable Spray
Booth Coatings As Applied, in Pounds of VOC Per
Pound of Coating Solids (kg VOC/kg of Coating
Solids), by Category
(1) Waterborne Topcoats 0.8
(2) High solids coating systems
Sealer 1.9
Topcoat 1.8
(3) Acid-cured alkyd amino systems
(i) Acid-cured alkyd amino sealer 2.3
Acid-cured alkyd amino conversion varnish topcoat 2.0
(ii) Other sealer 1.9
Acid-cured alkyd amino conversion varnish topcoat 2.0
(iii) Acid-cured alkyd amino sealer 2.3
Other topcoat 1.8
(4) Waterborne strippable spray booth coating 0.8

(2) Using an emissions averaging program which meets the requirements in § 129.107 (relating to special provisions for facilities using an emissions averaging approach).
(3) Using a control system that will achieve a reduction in emissions equivalent to 0.8 lb VOC/lb solids for topcoats or 1.8 lbs VOC/lb solids for topcoats and 1.9 lbs VOC/lb solids for sealers.
