(UUU) Specialty coating--A coating that, even though
it meets the definition of a primer, topcoat, or self-priming topcoat,
has additional performance criteria beyond those of primers, topcoats,
and self-priming topcoats for specific applications. These performance
criteria may include, but are not limited to, temperature or fire
resistance, substrate compatibility, antireflection, temporary protection
or marking, sealing, adhesively joining substrates, or enhanced corrosion
protection.
(VVV) Specialized function coating--A coating that
fulfills extremely specific engineering requirements that are limited
in application and are characterized by low volume usage. This category
excludes coatings covered in other specialty coating categories.
(WWW) Structural autoclavable adhesive--An adhesive
used to bond load-carrying aerospace components that is cured by heat

cured under ambient conditions that is used to bond load-carrying
aerospace components or other critical functions, such as nonstructural
bonding in the proximity of engines.
(YYY) Surface preparation--The removal of contaminants
from the surface of an aerospace vehicle or component or the activation
or reactivation of the surface in preparation for the application
of a coating.
(ZZZ) Temporary protective coating--A coating applied
to provide scratch or corrosion protection during manufacturing, storage,
or transportation. Two types include peelable protective coatings
and alkaline removable coatings. These materials are not intended
to protect against strong acid or alkaline solutions. Coatings that
provide this type of protection from chemical processing are not included
in this category.
(AAAA) Thermal control coating--A coating formulated
with specific thermal conductive or radiative properties to permit
temperature control of the substrate.
(BBBB) Topcoat--A coating that is applied over a primer
on an aerospace vehicle or component for appearance, identification,
camouflage, or protection. Topcoats that are defined as specialty
coatings are not included under this definition.
(CCCC) Touch-up and repair coating--A coating used
to cover minor coating imperfections appearing after the main coating
operation.
(DDDD) Touch-up and repair operation--That portion
of the coating operation that is the incidental application of coating
used to cover minor imperfections in the coating finish or to achieve
complete coverage. This definition includes out-of-sequence or out-of-cycle
coating.
(EEEE) Volatile organic compound (VOC) composite vapor
pressure--The sum of the partial pressures of the compounds defined
as VOCs, determined by the following calculation:

(FFFF) Waterborne (water-reducible) coating--A coating
which contains more than 5.0% water by weight as applied in its volatile
fraction.
(GGGG) Wet fastener installation coating--A primer
or sealant applied by dipping, brushing, or daubing to fasteners that
are installed before the coating is cured.
(HHHH) Wing coating--A corrosion-resistant topcoat
that is resilient enough to withstand the flexing of the wings.
(2) Can coating--The coating of cans for beverages
(including beer), edible products (including meats, fruit, vegetables,
and others), tennis balls, motor oil, paints, and other mass-produced
cans.
(3) Coil coating--The coating of any flat metal sheet
or strip supplied in rolls or coils.
(4) Fabric coating--The application of coatings to
fabric, which includes rubber application (rainwear, tents, and industrial
products such as gaskets and diaphragms).
(5) Factory surface coating of flat wood paneling--Coating
of flat wood paneling products, including hardboard, hardwood plywood,
particle board, printed interior paneling, and tile board.
(6) Large appliance coating--The coating of doors,
cases, lids, panels, and interior support parts of residential and
commercial washers, dryers, ranges, refrigerators, freezers, water
heaters, dishwashers, trash compactors, air conditioners, and other
large appliances.
(7) Metal furniture coating--The coating of metal furniture
(tables, chairs, wastebaskets, beds, desks, lockers, benches, shelves,
file cabinets, lamps, and other metal furniture products) or the coating
of any metal part which will be a part of a nonmetal furniture product.
(8) Mirror backing coating--The application of coatings
to the silvered surface of a mirror.
(9) Miscellaneous metal parts and products coating.
(A) Clear coat--A coating which lacks opacity or which
is transparent and which may or may not have an undercoat that is
used as a reflectant base or undertone color.
(B) Drum (metal)--Any cylindrical metal shipping container

liters) but equal to or less than 110 gallons (416 liters).
(C) Extreme performance coating--A coating intended
for exposure to extreme environmental conditions, such as continuous
outdoor exposure; temperatures frequently above 95 degrees Celsius
(203 degrees Fahrenheit); detergents; abrasive and scouring agents;
solvents; and corrosive solutions, chemicals, or atmospheres.
(D) High-bake coatings--Coatings designed to cure at
temperatures above 194 degrees Fahrenheit.
(E) Low-bake coatings--Coatings designed to cure at
temperatures of 194 degrees Fahrenheit or less.
(F) Miscellaneous metal parts and products (MMPP) coating--The
coating of MMPP in the following categories at original equipment
manufacturing operations; designated on-site maintenance shops which
recoat used parts and products; and off-site job shops which coat
new parts and products or which recoat used parts and products:
(i) large farm machinery (harvesting, fertilizing,
and planting machines, tractors, combines, etc.);
(ii) small farm machinery (lawn and garden tractors,
lawn mowers, rototillers, etc.);
(iii) small appliances (fans, mixers, blenders, crock
