The 2020 season marks the second consecutive season that Permatex has sponsored a StarCom Racing car. The car will be piloted by driver Quin Houff. 

“I’m very excited to have Permatex colors on our car for the first time this season,” said Driver Quin Houff. “It’s awesome to have such a well-known and respected company behind us!

Permatex Marketing Manager, Ashley Khan, spoke on the return to racing, noting, “Permatex couldn’t be more excited to kick off another season with StarCom Racing. Permatex products are widely chosen by professionals on and off the track, and the #00 Camaro gives us a great opportunity to showcase Permatex’s continued innovation in the automotive industry and bring awareness to our newest products. We look forward to connecting with our loyal customers who’ve trusted Permatex for many years and also introduce the Permatex brand to a newer generation of NASCAR fans.”
