I have noticed an increase in the use and the common acceptance of profanity and vulgarity on many sites. As a moderator on two construction related forums, I hear (see) […]

We love what we do!
Rob and I were talking about our business, RC Painting this weekend. The economy has presented many challenges to small businesses in the past year.

The Erecta Rack
We recently had the opportunity to try the Erecta Rack System. This allowed us to stack the doors in one central area in a space no larger than one door.
Hinge Magnets
Another product RC Painting likes to use is hinge magnets. These flexible magnets cover the hinge on a door and allow us to spray the door and the trim in place. Many painters use braces or stands to spray the doors all in one room and that can work as well, but we prefer not […]

Social Media Part 2
