It is there that the company received significant notoriety when Fox TV put them on the big screen during the NASCAR® Nextel Cup with over nine (9) million people watching to demonstrate the leading-edge fire extinguishing capability.

The water based, one part coatings comply with Green product requirements and water based paint environmental initiatives....
