The world’s most famous roller coaster, built in 1927, received some special attention from Baynum Painting’s crew. With 88 years of neglect and damage from the elements our team worked hard at prepping and removing worn paint and corrosion. The iconic ride has been restored to a beautiful new white finish and we are honored to have had a hand in the ride’s remarkable renovation.

This is Baynum Painting’s second SSPC award, in 2008 having been a recipient of their William Johnson Award for painting Six Flags Scream at Fiesta Texas.

"Over the past 30 years, in my role as the Purchasing Agent/Facilities Manager with the City of Newport, as well as, in my current role, as the Chairperson of the Campbell County Courthouse Commission, I have had the opportunity to work with Baynum Solutions of Newport, KY. Our most recent collaboration, which was completed at the historic Campbell County Courthouse, involved the complete restoration of the clock and bell tower that sits atop the courthouse, a project that was long overdue adn much needed. The existing clock, prior to the restoration, were nonfunctional adn the tower was unsafe to enter due to the deteriorated flooring. I worked direction with Mr. John Andrews, Senior Vice President of Baynum Solutions, on this project, and the professionalism and attention to detail, provided by both John, and his team, far exceeded my expectations. I found that, as I had experienced previously during our many projects together over the years, Baynum Solutions' main focus remains quality work and complete customer satisfaction."
