RPM International Inc. announces the acquisition of Ready Seal Inc., a Texas-based manufacturer of exterior wood stains, for its Rust-Oleum business in the Consumer Group. Ready Seal’s high performance and user-friendly “Goof-Proof” stain-and-sealer-in-one can be applied in hot or cold conditions, does not show lap marks, and does not require back brushing.

Ready Seal generated calendar year 2024 sales of approximately $45 million. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

This strategic acquisition strengthens Rust-Oleum’s portfolio of exterior wood care products, a segment that continues to gain traction among professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts. Additionally, Rust-Oleum is positioned to leverage its sales force and distribution channels to accelerate sales of Ready Seal’s products.

“We welcome Ready Seal’s employees and easy to use ‘Goof-Proof’ products to RPM,” said Frank C. Sullivan, CEO of RPM. “This acquisition strengthens our offerings in the attractive exterior wood care category and Rust-Oleum is well-positioned to leverage its competitive strengths to accelerate Ready Seal’s growth.”
