Theparticular designation selected
37、 is related to the expected performance of the exterior exposed building product. Although there areexceptions based on the type of environment where the building is erected, the recommended minimum coating mass designationsfor use in exterior exposed building applications are:Metallic Coating Minim

39、zed) G90 Z275These minimum coating weight mass designations are important to attain the normally expected long-term product life in theapplication. Exceptions to these minimum designations can be considered when the environmental conditions are of low corrosivepotential, such as a very dry climate.
40、In these cases, a lower coating weight mass, for example, G60 Z180 may be appropriate.Similarly, for very corrosive environments, the user should consider specifying a coating designation with a heavier coating weightmass.4.2 The organic coating typically consists of a primer and a topcoat on the to
