About Us
Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are. After all, in the beginning, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn’t particularly care about paint. He just wanted to keep his ship intact. That’s why, when he noticed that an accidental splash of fish oil had stopped the relentless spread of corrosion on his rusty metal deck, he immediately recognized it for what it was: A valuable solution. Rust-Oleum was founded on the principle of providing innovative products that protect surfaces from the elements. Welcome to Rust-Oleum, home of trusted quality - and powerful solutions - since 1921. Rust-Oleum is manufacturer of premium consumer and industrial paint and coating products.
