Mark is also on a boat GFX: Mark Shultz Sherwin Williams Protective & Marine Mark [00:00:10] When you do dry docking or new construction to your vessel, the products that are used are two-component, highly durable high-performance products, epoxies, urethanes. Man touching up a boat Tug boat moving in the water When you go do touch-up and repair, we use a lot of single-component products like alkyds. Matt [00:00:24] My customers get really frustrated with alkyds. They just don't last very long. Mark [00:00:27] They don't have the same color, the gloss, the durability. Two tug boats side by side Fishing boats Matt [00:00:30] Two-component products can be very tricky, especially for a deckhand. Their job isn't to mix paint for a living. You don't have enough A or you don't have enough B and the result is sometimes you don't know for a couple hours whether that material is mixed correctly or not. Ship docked at night So what my customers want is something that's easy to use, lasts a long time and saves them money.

Mixing the burst pouch Mark [00:01:15] Self-contained, easy to use, easy to mix, one-time use packet that they can go out and do touch-up and repair with and there's no excess left over.
