The given statement is true.

Paint and coating production procedures can generate hazardous air pollutants, incorporating heavy metals. The cleaning and mixing operations can discharge certain kinds of toxic air pollutants and VOC, that is, volatile organic compounds.

Till the time, the most harmful environmental influence from paints is the discharge of VOCs at the time of drying process, that is, after the coating is applied.
