Hi, this is Old Village Paint. Pleasure to meet you! We are obsessed with making top quality and easy to use Paints and Finishes that will make your house and furniture painting easier and last longer. We believe in honesty, transparency, and testing of every batch we make. We use all the best quality ingredients available and are always searching for new and better ingredients to stay on top. Quality is our first goal ~ then price. Simply said, we strive to stay on top! We believe in exceptional Customer service and satisfaction. Over 200 years of manufacturing is our crown. Since 1816

 

 

Our original Factory was C. Schrack & Co. In downtown Philadelphia where the US mint now stands.  Just around the corner from Independence Hall.  Then thru a series of events we became Turco Paint & Varnish Co. Sometime in the 1950’s. And eventually we evolved into Old Village Paint in the late 1900’s.  All along the same family.
