WCCO is coming - Help Paint The Town!

 
 
In preparation for Waterama & WCCO visiting, MECO7 would like to help local businesses get into the spirit with custom painted windows! Simply pay for the cost of the Chalk Paint® and we will help put together a design and do the painting for you with pricing starting at $40. For more information, contact Karina via email at karina@meco7.com

Please note: Chalk Paint® is made to withstand the elements, so your design will stay on your windows for weeks unless scrapped off.
