ROT TERMINATOR

What this record means

The record shows that “ROT TERMINATOR” is a live Principal Register registration owned by Protective Coating Company, a Pennsylvania corporation, and it covers “epoxy consolidant for the restoration of distressed wood” in International Class 001. A similar name used on wood‑restoration chemicals or related epoxy products would create the closest record‑based concern, because the listed goods are narrowly focused on that specific type of consolidant. The registration does not give the owner control over every use of the words “ROT” or “TERMINATOR” in unrelated industries. The prosecution history shows a normal examination path—filing in 1998, allowance in early 1999, and registration on the Principal Register in September 1999—without any supplemental‑register steps. The most recent meaningful event is the second ten‑year renewal filed and accepted on October 6 2019, and the supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market a wood‑restoration epoxy under a similar name.
