IdeaPaint has been one of the most successful startups in Boston. They recently received $3.3 Million in their second round of founding and they are one of the companies being celebrated at Venture Development’s NEXT: A Celebration of the Commonwealth’s Emerging Entrepreneurs. Now IdeaPaint is being featured on ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, this Sunday at 8pm.

IdeaPaint’s revolutionary invention allows you to paint dry-erase boards on any surface. We can only imagine what they’ve got planned for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

But wait, what is Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and why is it such a big deal? It’s a national television show that builds homes for people who otherwise couldn’t afford it. They usually work with families who are huge contributors to the community; oh and it’s a primetime, national television show. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is known to bring tears, hugs and corny one-liners from host Ty Pennington.

IdeaPaint won’t be the only guest featured on the show, they’ll be joined by KISS. Yes, the rock band KISS. Do you think ABC planned that? A band who’s members paint their faces featured with a company who paints white-boards onto walls. It might be a stretch, but we think it’s more then just a coincidence.

Make sure you tune into ABC, Sunday night at 8pm to support your fellow entrepreneurs. It will be exciting to see what they’re going to do with the IdeaPaint. Maybe they’ll make KISS, dry-erase board rock stars.
