STICK-IT

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “STICK‑IT” is no longer active; it was cancelled on October 16, 2015 because the registrant, Complementary Coatings Corp., did not file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register in 2005 for the specific goods of primer and sealer coatings used on interior drywall before wallpaper. A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for products or services that involve interior wall preparation or similar coatings, because that is the exact scope listed. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the federal protection for that particular class of goods. The prosecution history shows a straightforward registration and later cancellation, with no opposition or court actions recorded. Since no enforcement activity appears in the supplied history, there is no visible signal of the owner actively protecting the mark. For someone thinking of a similar name, the risk is that using it for drywall primers or related coatings could still be problematic, while other unrelated uses would be farther from the recorded concern.
