4.5.2 Soluble and total metal content. Asbestos, soluble and total metal content, except tantalum and tungsten,
shall be determined on a dry film of the enamel in accordance with the 40 CFR 261.24(a) and the appropriate test
listed below. Asbestos shall be analyzed in accordance with 29 CFR 1915.1001, Appendix K and the results shall
be recorded as percent by weight of the dry enamel film. Soluble metal content shall be analyzed as milligrams per
liter (mg/L) (see tables VIII and IX.). Total metal content shall be analyzed as percent by weight of the dry enamel
film. The test results for asbestos, each individual soluble metal, and total metal shall be as specified in 3.3.1, table
III, table IV, and table V. Tantalum and tungsten soluble metal content and total metal content shall be analyzed as
specified in 4.5.2.1.
