Paint/Pinto ... Genetics & Such
A Paint is essentially a quarter horse with "extra" white / pinto genetics expressed, and the horse's bloodlines reflect that QH lineage, perhaps with some TB lines included. A Pinto has the pinto pattern but has mixed breed bloodlines ... for example a Half Arab Pinto.
