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.

The same passion that drove the Captain to spend his next few years creating the rust-preventative paint. When we see a problem, we work diligently until we’ve perfected a solution - which has led to some of the cutting-edge, durable and innovative products.

Pretty much satisfied with the results. It binds with the surface very well, you have to keep a little patience, the instructions says that we should wait for 48 hours for hardening, give it a little extra time to dry.
