			  NR
			  400, 419, and 421 apply to the terms used in this
			  chapter. In addition, except when another definition is specifically made
			  applicable, in this chapter:
(1d)
			"Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene welding" or "ABS welding" means any process to
			weld acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene pipe.
(1h) "Adhesion primer" means a coating that
			is applied to a polyolefin part to promote the adhesion of a subsequent coating
			and that is clearly identified as an adhesion primer or adhesion promoter on
			its accompanying material safety data sheet.
(1m) "Adhesion promoter" means a coating
			designed to facilitate the bonding of a primer or topcoat on surfaces such as
			trim moldings, door locks and door sills, where sanding is impractical, and on
			plastic parts and the edges of sanded areas.
(2) "Adhesive" means any substance that is
			used to bond one surface to another surface by attachment.
(3) "Adhesive primer" means a coating that is
			applied directly to a substrate in order to seal the substrate and to provide a
			bonding surface for an adhesive prior to the application of the
			adhesive.
(3g) "Aerosol adhesive"
			means an adhesive or adhesive primer packaged as an aerosol product in which
			the spray mechanism is permanently housed in a non-refillable can designed for
			handheld application without the need for ancillary hoses or spray
			equipment.
(3r) "Air assisted
			airless spray" means a spray coating method that combines compressed air with
			hydraulic pressure to atomize the coating material into finer droplets than is
			achieved with pure airless spray. Lower hydraulic pressure is used than with
			airless spray.
(4) "Air dried
			coating" means coatings which are dried by the use of air or forced warm air.
			Forced warm air includes processes whereby the coated object is heated above
			ambient temperature up to a maximum of 90°C (194°F) to decrease drying
			time.
(4g) "Airless spray" means a
			spray coating method in which the coating is atomized by forcing it through a
			small opening at high pressure and in which the coating liquid is not mixed
			with air before exiting from the nozzle.
(4r) "Antifoulant coating" means any coating
			applied to the underwater portion of a pleasure craft to prevent or reduce the
			attachment of biological organisms and that is registered with EPA as a
			pesticide under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
			Act.
(5) "Anti-glare safety
			coating" means a low gloss coating formulated to eliminate glare for safety
			purposes on interior surfaces of a vehicle, as specified under the U.S.
			department of transportation standard for reflecting surfaces in
			49 CFR
			571.107, as in effect on October 1,
			1994.
(6) "Application area" means
			the area where a coating is applied by spraying, dipping or flow coating
			techniques.
(7) "Asphalt" means a
			dark-brown to black cementitious material (solid, semisolid or liquid in
			consistency) in which the predominating constituents are bitumens which occur
			in nature as such or which are obtained as residue in refining
			petroleum.
(7c) "Automatic blanket
			and roller wash" means any cleaning solution used by the automatic blanket and
			roller wash cleaning systems associated with lithographic printing
			presses.
(7e) "Automobile
			refinishing coating component" means any portion of a coating, such as a
			reducer or thinner, hardener, additive, etc., recommended, by its manufacturer
			or importer, to distributors or end-users for automobile refinishing. The raw
			materials used to produce the components that are mixed by the end-user to
			prepare a coating for application are not considered automobile refinishing
			coating components.
(7m)
			"Automobile refinishing coating importer", "coating component importer" or
			"importer" means any company, group or individual that brings automobile
			refinishing coatings or coating components from a location outside the United
			States into the United States for sale or distribution in the United
			States.
(7s) "Automobile
			refinishing coating component manufacturer" or "manufacturer" means any
			company, group or individual that produces or packages automobile refinishing
			coatings or coating components for sale or distribution in the United States,
			including an entity which produces or packages such coating or coating
			components under a private label for another party.
(7v) "Automotive/transportation plastic
			parts" means the interior and exterior plastic components of automobiles,
			trucks, tractors, lawnmowers and mobile equipment intended for primary use on
			land.
(7y) "Baked coating" means
			any coating which is cured or dried in an oven where the temperature of the
			coated object exceeds 90 oC (194 oF), or any other coating which is not an air
			dried coating.
(8) "Basecoat" means
			one of the following:
(a) For the purpose of
			wood furniture coating, a coat of colored material, usually opaque, that is
			applied before other inks, coatings or opaque finishing materials and which
			usually has a topcoat subsequently applied for protection.
(b) For the purpose of plastic parts coating,
			a coating applied after the prime coat and prior to any other
			coatings.
