The company focused on using shellac, lacquer, varnishes, and polyurethanes for floor finishes for almost 95 years, and its founders were dedicated to producing the best products possible.

In the 1990s, the company moved to a larger facility in New Rochelle, NY, with +/- 50,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing and office space on two acres of land. It became the producer of POR-15, a specialty paint designed to protect rusted metal surfaces, marketed to automotive customers as a restoration and corrosion prevention coating.

Tin covers up to 12sq feet. Perfect if you don’t finish all in once. Another thing I've been curious about is "sealing" metal. Rust is oxidation, which needs oxygen to happen. Let's say you have a rusty piece of sheet metal, just a square chunk for ease of conversation, and coat each side completely. I don't care if you use POR-15, epoxy primer, whatever, but each side is coated. Now, this is where I may be off, since the rust is sealed from oxygen, how is it able to continue rusting?
