Carlton and Megan's work in West Palm Beach
Carlton and Megan Jones run Divine Wall Murals in West Palm Beach. The brick break-through up top is theirs. So are a graduating class across the side of a building, a classroom reading corner, giraffes in a home office and elephants at life size. One machine, a lot of different walls.

What new owners ask
What does it cost to start?
New printers start at $39,995 for the Tech Series or the Floor Series, the Pro Series is $44,995, and certified reconditioned printers start at $29,995. Add a van, ink and a computer. Financing is available for qualified buyers.
How soon am I printing for clients?
Training is one full day in Wilmington, NC. We give you the delivery date with the quote, and most owners are quoting jobs before the printer arrives.
Do I need design skills?
No. You need to be organized and good with files. Artwork comes from the client, a designer, an image library or AI, and training covers the file types the printer needs.
What do I charge?
Most owners charge $20 to $40 a square foot. Ink is about a dollar. The payback calculator runs a month on your own numbers.
Do I own it outright?
Yes. Your company, your name, your prices and your customer list. No royalties, no revenue share, no license to renew.
