Do your paddles come with paint?
To be specific, our services are just for the wood only.
Paint jobs are optional for customers. If you need it partially painted, or fully painted, we can direct you to Painters that can help you bring your paddle to life! Please note that this is a separate service to the "wood work" order that you may have placed from us. "Dang Paddles In Color" is a community of talented artists that work with us that can help you guys paint your paddles if needed.
The painters are local to us, so they'll pick up your order, and return to us when completed
Paint Job Disclaimer
Completion dates may vary with the complexity of your paint job and your painter's schedule. Message them early, they can be busier than we are. So please confirm all the details and necessary to them, as you have done with me. Dang Paddles is not responsible for damages, finish date completion, and or shipping delays after the wood work has finished. Dang Paddles recommends assembling and painting these projects youselves.

Shipping & Pick up
Upon ordering, all shipping orders have shipping costs calculated. We usually ship with USPS, or UPS depending on how quick they can get it to you. There are days when USPS can get a paddle from CA to NY in 2 days versus UPS probably 4-5 days, and we'll go with that for you because we always want you guys to have the quickest turn around rate possible.
