NIGP 63179: Recycled Paints, Lacquers, Shellacs, Varnish, Primers, Coatings, Sealers, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 63179 Recycled Paints, Lacquers, Shellacs, Varnish, Primers, Coatings, Sealers, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure exterior and interior painting services, including surface preparation, application of new coatings, caulking, and related architectural finishes for public facilities and housing. Recent solicitations show demand for full-scope painting projects where contractors supply labor, materials, equipment, and oversight to complete interior and exterior work on public buildings, apartments, and multi-facility portfolios. Issuing bodies include municipal development authorities, county facilities-management divisions, and city departments overseeing capital projects. Work often triggers prevailing-wage requirements and bonding thresholds, particularly when federal funding (such as Davis-Bacon Act compliance) is implicated or when projects exceed modest dollar thresholds.

Geographic activity in 2026 centers on Wisconsin and Florida. The Community Development Authority of the City of Madison, Wisconsin solicited bids on the Karabis Apartments Painting and Siding Project (RFB #15051-0-2026-AH, due July 17, 2026) covering exterior surface preparation, gutter and downspout installation, soffit and fascia replacement, painting, caulking, and disposal under Davis-Bacon Act prevailing-wage rules. Orange County, Florida issued a concurrent RFQ for Commercial Interior & Exterior Painting Services for Facilities Management (Y26-1008, due July 7, 2026) spanning multiple county and City of Orlando facilities via electronic submission through OpenGov. Both opportunities required detailed product specifications, proof of insurance with $1,000,000 general liability minimums, and references for similar work; both imposed electronic submission and tight question-deadline windows typical of local procurement cycles.
