Walls. Provide soil and water resistant, easily-cleaned wall treatments at

least up to 1220 mm (48 in.) above the finished floor in children's activity rooms, toilets,

and child traffic areas (corridors). Vinyl wall coverings or hard, durable surfaces are

examples of acceptable treatments.

The Air Force and Marine Corps do not

permit paint below 1,220 mm (48 in.) The Navy will allow epoxy painted walls, but

prefers vinyl wall coverings at this height. Choose wainscot cap of a material other than

painted wood. Provide heavy vinyl bumper corners and continuous vinyl chair rail

bumpers to protect against cart damage. Use Class A fire-rated wall treatments in

corridors. Use Class A or Class B wall treatments in other areas..

7-1.5.1

Tile. Glazed ceramic tile is appropriate for adult toilets and kitchens. Use

ceramic tile that is durable, non-porous, and cleanable. Recommend using dark, epoxy

grout material. Do not use ceramic tile in areas where sound deflection may be a

problem.

7-1.5.2

Paint. Do not use lead- or oil-based paint. Use chromate-free paint. Test

existing paint for lead content (either by direct read-out, instrumentation, or chemical

analysis). In renovated facilities, remove lead paint in accepted manner or enclose in

new impervious construction. Use paint certified by the manufacturer to be non-toxic

with 200 grams/liter of VOC or less. Use paint containing a minimum of 50 percent post

consumer waste paint taken from community collections. In high-wear areas, use

durable and scrubable paint, i.e., a low maintenance solution.
