PITTSBURGH – PPG Industries’ protective and marine coatings business (PPG-PMC) has received The Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC) 2012 George Campbell Award during SSPC 2012 at the Tampa Bay Convention Center in Florida. The honor recognizes the performance of PPG-PMC’s spot primer and finish coatings used in the restoration of the U.S. Capitol Dome in Washington, DC.
The renovation project included two 100-percent acrylic, waterborne enamel coatings from PPG: PITT-TECH® exterior spot primer and Pitt-Tech exterior finish DTM (direct-to-metal) satin industrial enamel, which was tinted to color-match the dome.
