To the Members of the Commission:

       RE:  PPG Industries Employee Savings Plan/S-8 Registration Statement

       This opinion is submitted in connection with the Registration 
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") being filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission, under the Securities Act of 1933, as 
amended (the "Act"), in respect of 2,000,000 shares of the Common Stock, 
par value $1.66 2/3 per share, of PPG Industries, Inc. (the "Corporation") 
and an indeterminate amount of interests of participation in the PPG 
Industries Employee Savings Plan (the "Plan").

       I am Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Corporation 
and, in that capacity, I, or lawyers in the Law and Patent Department of 
the Corporation acting under my supervision, have examined the written 
documents constituting the Plan and such other documents and corporate 
records as I, or they, have deemed necessary or appropriate for the 
purposes of this opinion.

       Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that all of such shares 
and interests of participation, upon their issuance (or transfer in the 
case of shares acquired by the Corporation and held in its treasury) under 
the terms of the Plan and as authorized by the Corporation's Board of 
Directors, will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

       I am further of the opinion that the provisions of the written 
documents constituting the Plan comply with the requirements of the 
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, pertaining to 
such provisions.
