He has expanded the Baynum brand over the years to include much more than the Amusement Industry market. Offshoot BPI Painting Company, formed in 2011 to cultivate a growing commercial and industrial clientele, has gone on to accumulate thousands of satisfied customers on painting projects across nearly every spectrum of the business world.
