FRANKSVILLE, WISCONSIN, UNITED STATES, June 1, 2023
CPV Paint & Graphics (Custom Painted Vehicles, Inc.) recently celebrated the groundbreaking of their new 26,000 square foot facility expansion project. This impressive addition will be seamlessly connected to their existing 34,000 square foot facility, amplifying the company's ability to serve their customers efficiently and take on new projects. For over 40 years, CPV Paint & Graphics has been committed to delivering high quality paint applications and the organization has continued to evolve with the demands of the market. “Since moving into our current building in 2017, we have experienced tremendous growth and identified the need for additional space to accommodate increasing customer demand,” said CPV’s owner Steve Wright.
"Today, CPV is one of the few operations that not only works directly with manufacturers on various low-volume programs, but also with individuals looking for unique custom motorcycle paint finishes.” - Steve Wright
In the late 1970s, the Wright family started CPV in the era of custom conversion vans. These attention-getting vans were rolling works of art, displaying complex murals and two-tone graphics designed by CPV's founder Jay Wright. Jay's intricate airbrushed artwork became recognized across the nation and put CPV on the map. Jay's son Steve alongside his wife Dana, have continued to grow the business as they follow the same core values of high quality and excellent customer service. Over the years, trends have changed as well as new challenges in the automotive and motorcycle paint finishing business. Painting custom conversion vans is no longer needed, but the proprietary methods and techniques developed over the years at CPV are currently in very high demand. “Today, CPV is one of the few operations that not only works directly with manufacturers on various low-volume programs, but also with individuals looking for unique custom motorcycle paint finishes,” said Wright.
Working alongside other world-class paint operations throughout North America, CPV developed its proprietary production masking systems for two-tone automobiles and special vehicle graphic applications. This innovative and technical product from CPV not only sets them apart from others in the industry, but also demonstrates their commitment to growing through versatility and strategic partnerships.
Although most of CPV focuses on new paint finishes, they also serve individuals and dealerships across the globe with a variety of paint and graphic repairs. Accidents happen, and with decades of expertise, they’ve helped thousands of customers get back on the road. In 2021 CPV was named the only paint shop in the world that is a Licensed Preferred Provider of Harley-Davidson motorcycle parts that are no longer available through the motor company—helping CPV to once again serve their customers and get their motorcycles back to factory original condition.
