C. Terms defined.
"Airless spray" means a spray coating method in which
						the coating is atomized by forcing it through a small nozzle opening at high
						pressure. The coating is not mixed with air before exiting from the nozzle
						opening.
"Antique motor vehicle" means a motor vehicle, but not a
						reproduction thereof, manufactured more than 25 years prior to the current year
						that has been maintained in or restored to a condition that is substantially in
						conformance with manufacturer specifications.
"Automotive elastomeric coating" means a coating
						designed for application over surfaces of flexible mobile equipment and mobile
						equipment components, such as elastomeric bumpers.
"Automotive impact-resistant coating" means a coating
						designed to resist chipping caused by road debris.
"Automotive jambing clearcoat" means a fast-drying,
						ready-to-spray clearcoat applied to surfaces such as door jambs and trunk and
						hood edges to allow for quick closure.
"Automotive lacquer" means a thermoplastic coating
						applied directly to bare metal surfaces of mobile equipment and mobile
						equipment components that dries primarily by solvent evaporation and that is
						resoluble in its original solvent.
"Automotive low-gloss coating" means a coating that
						exhibits a gloss reading less than or equal to 25 on a 60 degree
						glossmeter.
"Automotive multicolored topcoat" means a topcoat that
						exhibits more than one color, is packaged in a single container, and
						camouflages surface defects on areas of heavy use, such as cargo beds and other
						surfaces of trucks and other utility vehicles.
"Automotive pretreatment" means a primer that contains a
						minimum of 0.5% acid, by weight, that is applied directly to bare metal
						surfaces of mobile equipment and mobile equipment components to provide
						corrosion resistance and to promote adhesion of subsequent coatings.
"Automotive primer-sealer" means a coating applied to
						mobile equipment and mobile equipment components prior to the application of a
						topcoat for the purpose of providing corrosion resistance, promoting adhesion
						of subsequent coatings, promoting color uniformity, and promoting the ability
						of the undercoat to resist penetration by the topcoat.
"Automotive primer-surfacer" means a coating applied to
						mobile equipment and mobile equipment components prior to the application of
						topcoat for the purpose of filling surface imperfections in the substrate,
						providing corrosion resistance, or promoting adhesion of subsequent
						coatings.
"Automotive specialty coating" means coatings including,
						but not limited to, elastomeric coatings, adhesion promoters, low gloss
						coatings, bright metal trim repair coatings, jambing clearcoats, impact
						resistant coatings, rubberized asphaltic underbody coatings, uniform finish
						blenders, weld-through primers applied to automotive surfaces and lacquer
						topcoats applied to a classic motor vehicle or to an antique motor
						vehicle.
"Automotive topcoat" means a coating or series of
						coatings applied over an automotive primer-surfacer, automotive primer-sealer
						or existing finish on the surface of mobile equipment and mobile equipment
						components for the purpose of protection or beautification.
"Automotive touch up repair" means the application of
						automotive topcoat finish materials to cover minor finishing imperfections
						equal to or less than one inch in diameter.
"Classic motor vehicle" means a motor vehicle, but not a
						reproduction thereof, manufactured at least 15 years prior to the current year
						that has been maintained in or restored to a condition that is substantially in
						conformity with manufacturer specifications and appearance.
"Mobile equipment" means equipment that may be driven or
						is capable of being driven on a roadway including, but not limited to,
						automobiles; trucks, truck cabs, truck bodies and truck trailers; buses;
						motorcycles; utility bodies; camper shells; mobile cranes; bulldozers; street
						cleaners; golf carts; ground support vehicles, used in support of aircraft
						activities at airports; and farm equipment.
"Mobile equipment repair and refinishing operation"
						means any facility that applies automotive pretreatment, automotive
						primer-surface, automotive primer-sealer, automotive topcoat, or automotive
						specialty or color matched coatings to mobile equipment or mobile equipment
						components.
