The GSA Federal Supply Service has a free paint brochure available by
calling l-800-241-RAIN or FAX requests to (206) 931-7544.
Specifications: (1) EPA recommends that procuring agencies use GSA
specification TT-P-2846, Paint, Latex (Recycled with Post-Consumer
Waste). This specification applies to interior, exterior, and interior/
exterior latex paints intended for use on wallboard, concrete, stucco,
masonry, and wood.
(2) GSA specification TT-P-2846 requires high content levels (50-
90% postconsumer paint). EPA recommends that procuring agencies refer
to the requirements and quality assurance provisions in TT-P-2846 when
purchasing reprocessed latex paint containing lower levels of
postconsumer paint (e.g., whites, off-whites, and pastel colors).
