No Per-User Fees. No Payment Cut.

The painting app that remembers every color — and keeps you compliant

Most paint apps only count gallons. Cutting In: The Brush Slinger figures your labor the way the expensive estimating software does — surface by surface, at rates you tune to how fast your crew actually paints. It also remembers the exact brand, color, and sheen you used in every room, checks the weather before you schedule exterior work, and walks you through EPA Lead Paint RRP compliance on pre-1978 properties. Works offline. Your data stays on your phone.

Why Cutting In: The Brush Slinger

Estimate by production rate, not guesswork

Paint is the cheap part of a job. Labor is where painters win or lose money.

Surface-by-surface labor. Walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and windows each estimated at their own rate and coats — honest labor hours, not a flat guess.
Your own production rates. Set your crew's real pace once and the app remembers it, so every estimate reflects how fast you actually work.
Gallons figured for you. Wall and ceiling paint calculated from area and coats, with your waste factor.
Quote on the spot. Turn the takeoff into a branded estimate before you leave the driveway.

What No Other Painting App Does

Built for painters, not retrofitted from a generic job-tracker

Four things a painting contractor actually needs that a generic field-service app never will.

🎨

Paint Color History

Record the brand, color, code, and sheen on every surface. Look up what you painted a client's living room years later, and hand them a branded Paint Card for future touch-ups.

🔒

Lead Paint EPA RRP Compliance

A real checklist for pre-1978 properties — assessment, pamphlet delivery, containment, cleaning verification, and the 3-year record retention EPA requires. Not legal advice, but built from the actual rule.

🌤️

Weather-Day Suitability

Before an exterior job, see the forecast temperature and rain chance — including the 24–48 hour cure window after, not just the day of.

⏰

Repaint Reminders

Get nudged when a client's exterior or interior paint is estimated to be due for a refresh, built right from your own color history — so you reach out before they call someone else.

New — Now Included

Everything you need to close the job and get paid

The features the $40–80/month platforms charge for — now built into every KGKV app, at a flat price with no cut of your payments.
