The Paint Center has been serving Abilene and the "Friendly Frontier" for over 35
years. We were founded in 1971 by Dean Hagler, under the name T.C.I. Paint
Center. Our initial location was on North 6th. We later moved to the North 1st
location. In 1983, we purchased land on South 1st and built our present
building. We have gone through several remodels, and now have what we feel
is one of the nicest, cleanest, most exciting paint stores in Texas. Our decorative
painting showroom is unique, treating faux finishes like a work of art and then
displaying them like real art. We feel that if you can see it, feel it, and learn how to do it--you'll want it! Our staff is creative, knowledgeable and fun. We try and build
relationships with our customers, not just sell them something. We are
fortunate to have many third generation customers. We invite you in to
experience the difference a dedicated group of people can make in you painting
and decorating projects. |

Here is an old photo
showing our location on
North 1st.
It was taken
shortly after our opening
in
1972. |

This photo show the store on North
1st after the strip center remodeled
the exterior. The painting in the
foreground was the largest painting
we had ever framed. We no longer
do framing. Circa 1979. |

This is how our store looks today.
The exterior was repainted in 2006
with the help of all our guys. The
top section features a faux finish
effect glazing a dark brown over
a
burnt orange base. This took
some time but was well worth
the
effort. |

This is our wall of faux finish ideas.
We treated the finishes like
art--which
they are. We can show you the
actual colors used and tell
you how
to do the technique. We are the faux
finish experts! |

This is a shot of our color center
area. We sell both Coronado and
Pittsburgh Paints small color
samples, so you can buy a few and
test the colors in your home at, in
your light, and determine if the color
works for you! |

This is our "faux" koi fish pond.
The rocks are real, everything
else is paint. No feeding or cleaning
is necessary! |
