Paintmaker Nights

As our Paint Maker youre there toassure product quality by setting up operating or tending machines to mix or blend materials such as solvents resins pigments latex and other chemical additives in a safe consistent and efficient manner to ultimately provide paint to the customer.

Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are. After all in the beginning our founder sea captain Robert Fergusson didnt particularly care about paint. When he founded our company in 1921 he just wanted to keep his ship intact and stumbled upon a valuable solution. Today that discovery is Rust-Oleum Corporation.

The same passion that drove the Captain to spend his next few years creating the worlds first rust-preventative paint still drives us today. When we see a problem we work diligently until weve perfected a solution which has led to some of the most cutting edge durable and innovative products in the industry. Our creative and talented team of over 2000 people across every corner of the world help us remain the global leader in protective paints and coatings for both home and industry.
