Axalta Coating Systems (formerly known as DuPont Performance Coatings) are a coatings company that develops and manufactures coatings for light and commercial vehicles, industrial, and refinish applications. They sponsor the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet driven by William Byron in the NASCAR Cup Series.

The company previously sponsored four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon, a relationship which dates back when Gordon first debuted in 1992. ACS was originally the coatings division of DuPont, with which HMS had a contract. In 2013, DuPont sold its coatings division to The Carlyle Group, where it became Axalta.
