Quantum Paint

Quantum Paint QUANTUM was developed over a decade ago and is the most advanced marine finish system on the market.

Quantum Paint began over 10 years ago when University of South Carolina grads were cleaning up a secondhand 17-foot day boat. The paint on the boat was peeling, dirty, and chalky, and the craft needed some serious TLC to get back in the water. The duo wasn’t satisfied with their available paint options, and Martin, already familiar with current aerospace coatings, started tinkering in his garage t

o combine the aerospace technology with marine paint. The finished product —now EMC2’s signature Quantum technology—inspired Boswell to launch a company to meet the need for better marine coatings. They started EMC2 while both working other full-time jobs, and sunk $1,500 and a whole lot of nights, weekends, and lunch breaks into getting it off the ground. After graduating from Charleston, S.C.’s Harbor Accelerator Program, they teamed up with industry vet Steve Schultz to produce and distribute the Quantum Paint product line.

Would you believe this a 10 year old paint job one of our customers Albert did himself? When we say long lasting we mean looooong lasting. No wax, no ceramics needed, just some soap and water. After 10 years he had a couple of dings and scratches so he ordered some of our fairing compound and a spray can to touch it up. We pulled his retain and matched his specific batch, to make sure the color matched.
This commitment to excellence and service is what we mean by the .

You spent real money on a paint job. Three years later you're wiping your hand across the hull and coming away with chalky residue.
Most people blame the color. Most people are wrong.
The real cause of early marine paint failure is almost always baked into the paint before the first coat ever hits the hull — and it comes down to a number most boat owners have never heard of.
We just published a full breakdown which you can access below. It focuses on the science behind why marine topcoat fails early, the 5 most common causes, and exactly what to look for in a finish that actually lasts in South Carolina salt water.
