Acquired by Quest Specialty Chemicals in October 2011, Patriot Paint was founded in 1980 by Mr. Burnie Humphrey as a manufacturer of industrial anti-corrosive coatings. Patriot Paint exists as one of the industry’s distinctive producers of coating systems for metal substrates.

Patriot Paint production includes a large volume of waterborne and high-solids technology. This attribute not only minimizes Patriot’s operational impact upon the environment, but also differentiates its product set from a competitive base that is substantially more rooted in solvent borne formulation.

From zero V.O.C., anti-corrosive transportation coatings to multilayer decorative systems for metal caskets, Patriot Paint has become recognized for its specialized, environmentally-sensitive, low-cost solutions for almost any metal substrate application.
