CEO & Founder

David Bayouth

David is the CEO of Bay Island Media, Inc, the parent company of Old Guys Painting. He is born and raised in Wichita and has vast painting experience of residential and commercial properties spanning over 45 years. He also has experience as a nautical painter, painting boats and ships.

David's approach to painting is:

  • Properly prepare the surface. Sometimes this means scrapping, sanding, and filing. Sometimes structural repair is necessary (i.e. replacing wood rot). The surface should have some roughness so paint will properly bond to it.
  • Properly clean the surface. Dirt, dust, resin, oil, loose matter... all must be removed.
  • Properly prepare the surface for final paint coat. Sometimes requires primer, like on unpainted wood or metal.
  • Use the best paint for the job. Discuss carefully with owner to discuss brand, color, finish, and specific paint type.
  • Properly apply final paint coat (or coats). Make sure to use the right amount of paint on surface. May require more than one coating. Do not use too much paint either. In most cases, it is necessary to work the paint into the surface by use of a roller or paint brush. In most situations, using a spray gun without back rolling or brushing will guarantee paint popping off later. Paint MUST be worked in to the surface to bond properly!
