    Laurie E. Clark

    Today’s architectural paint and coating products do so much more than protect a substrate and provide color! Recent technological advancements have produced coatings that can also solve problems for commercial and residential interiors as well as exteriors. Today’s coatings must also meet stringent VOC regulations and offer material transparency for those seeking sustainable building certifications. This course will provide you with the fundamentals of different paint systems and the latest technologies so that you can specify coatings that will provide the best outcome for your client’s commercial and residential projects.
