It is owned by Berkshire Hathaway.

Paint is any liquid, liquefiable, or composition that, after application to a substrate in a thin layer, converts to a solid film.

It is most commonly used to protect, color, or provide texture to objects.

Paint can be made or purchased in many colors—and in many different types, such as watercolor, synthetic, etc.

Paint is typically stored, sold, and applied as a liquid, but most types dry into a solid.

Color (American English) or colour (Commonwealth English) is the characteristic of human visual perception described through color categories, with names such as red, yellow, purple, or blue.

This perception of color derives from the stimulation of cone cells in the human eye by electromagnetic radiation in the spectrum of light.

Color categories and physical specifications of color are associated with objects through the wavelength of the light that is reflected from them.

This reflection is governed by the object's physical properties such as light absorption, emission spectra, etc.

A wood stain consists of a colorant suspended or dissolved in an agent or solvent.

The suspension agent can be water, alcohol, petroleum distillate, or the actual finishing agent (shellac, lacquer, varnish, polyurethane, etc).

Colored or 'stained' finishes, like polyurethane, do not penetrate the pores of the wood to any significant degree and will disappear when the finish itself deteriorates or is removed intentionally.
