(2) Beginning September 1, 2014, no person shall sell supply or offer for sale any adhesive, sealant, adhesive primer or sealant primer with a VOC content in excess of the limits in Table 1 and that was manufactured on or after September 1, 2014.
(3) Beginning September 1, 2014, no person shall apply any adhesive, sealant, adhesive primer or sealant primer with a VOC content in excess of the limits in Table 1 unless that person uses an add-on control device as specified in R307-342-8 or unless the adhesive, sealant, adhesive primer or sealant primer was manufactured before September 1, 2014.
(4) The VOC content limits in Table 1 for adhesives applied to particular substrates shall apply as follows:
(a) If a person uses an adhesive or sealant subject to a specific VOC content limit for such adhesive or sealant in Table 1, such specific limit is applicable rather than an adhesive-to-substrate limit; and
(b) If an adhesive is used to bond dissimilar substrates together, the applicable substrate category with the highest VOC content shall be the limit for such use.
