Chemsol announced Mr. Kevin Cundiff has joined the team as Vice President of Aerospace coatings, and will lead Chemsol’s military and aerospace paint initiatives. Chemsol recently partnered with Sherwin-Williams Aerospace Coatings and is now an authorized distributor of Sherwin-Williams’ military-specification primers and topcoats as well as their general and commercial aviation paints (https://chemsol.com/brands/sherwin-williams/military/). “I am so excited to be a part of the leadership team at Chemsol and there could not be a more opportune time for Chemsol and Sherwin Williams to supply the needs of the military aerospace market,” says Mr. Cundiff, a 14 year veteran of the aerospace and defense industries.
“The market dynamics resulting from recent acquisition activity present critical supply chain challenges. Chemsol is dedicated to putting the right people in place and providing the right direction to tackle this very important task“. Mr. Cundiff most recently was with Deft Finishes.
While at Deft, he led the successful introduction of the first total non-chrome system applied to a military aircraft. He then led the non-chrome testing on other military platforms. He can be reached at kbcundiff@bellsouth.net or (859) 539-9545.
“We are delighted to partner with Sherwin-Williams and represent an American brand that is known for quality, innovation and excellence,” says Mike Toribio, President of Chemsol. “As a small business with longstanding ties to the defense industry, this partnership is highly beneficial for our customers. The end users get the absolute best paint technology and the taxpayers enjoy the best value. Kevin is the right fit for our Company and the right person to lead this initiative – he shares our devotion to and respect for the defense industry – his motivation is contagious.”
The partnership with Sherwin-Williams stems from Chemsol’s aim at aligning an American coatings manufacturer with the military-specification paint demands of the defense aerospace market.
