CARC is a paint used on military vehicles.  This coating system provided surfaces that are easily and effectively decontaminated after exposure to liquid chemical agents. The CARC system contains solvents and isocyanate (HDI). Exposure to CARC paint may occur during indoor painting operations if proper personal protective (PPE) equipment and engineering controls are not instituted.
