Painting Advice and Premium Products from Experienced Professionals.

The Paintsource Mission

The PaintSource Network serves as a central resource for Painting and Wood Coatings projects.
We seek to increase awareness of the superior-performing methods, tools, products, and solutions we have tested over the years. We seek to give you unbiased and valuable advice.

We are a network of experienced industry professionals, paint tech representatives, certified coatings consultants, specialty contractors, and wood coatings specialists who share a passion for educating our clients.

Our team has been providing painting and wood care advice for over 25 years. During that time we have tested and evaluated most available wood coatings on the market. Many paints, wood stains, and coatings available in the big warehouses and national chains demonstrate repeated failure and preventable maintenance. Our experience has shown that only a few select coatings offer the level of performance, beauty, and durability that we demand for our clients.  We feature those select products here.

We offer a variety of resources and services including online project consultation, video project guides, and numerous articles to help you choose the right product for your project. We feature our best-performing products and methods proven to achieve the easiest and best looking results for a variety of projects. Our body of information includes articles and Project Guides at PaintSource.net, as well as our featured videos.

We are not obligated to any product manufacturer. We share what we have learned from our team's diverse experience in the Paint and Wood Coatings industry. We feature wood coatings, painting tools, supplies, and solutions for both contractors and do it yourselfers. We serve as a link between a growing network of independent paint and decorating retailers, wood coatings manufacturers, certified contractors, and our clients.













SPARE TIME:

My wife and I support and serve Central Kentucky Riding for Hope. CKRH is a non-profit therapeutic riding program based at the Kentucky Horse Park. Hundreds of volunteers help provide diverse therapy to thousands of children and adults using the unique bond between man and horse.

Central Kentucky Riding for Hope is dedicated to enriching the community by improving the quality of life and the health of children and adults with special physical, cognitive, emotional and social needs through therapeutic activities using the horse.

We hope you will visit the CKRH site for information about this special program. The new covered arena for the program that was a dream several years ago became a reality in 2009. Therapy can now continue year around, even in rain, heat, and snow, with added classes all day long, allowing the program to assist many more students. More details here.
