Built in 1871, the St. Augustine Lighthouse is an important landmark in Florida. Located 165 feet above the United States’ oldest port, the lighthouse receives hundreds of visitors everyday.

The newly-renovated Charlevoix South Pier Lighthouse’s once bright red paint was nothing more than a faded coating, so Charlevoix Historical Society and the City of Charlevoix set out to find a new coating system. The new system would not only restore the lighthouse’s historically-correct shade of red, but would also ensure the color and gloss retention of the coating.
