Auto Painter Invents Linear Blocking Tools While Looking for a Better Paint Job

Colten-Davidson-Linear-Blocking-Tools
Colten Davidson invented Liner Blocking Tools to make his job easier every day, and now they’re a hit.

Linear blocks have slits in them that distribute the pressure from your hand to the entire block evenly. They create something like a slinky effect. In addition, all our blocks don’t have sharp edges. They cost a little more because there's a lot of machine time going into them, but you get what you pay for, like anything else.

We did over $1 million in sales in our first year, which was pretty good. We have a distributor in the U.S. and Australia, and are currently working with a few in Sweden, Germany and from other parts of Europe. We have been getting awesome feedback from painters all over the world, so we are excited about more international distribution.
