My name is NOT Ralph
Next time you’re bored, go to Google and type in “ralph lauren paint.” Yep, we’re usually near the top under that topic. Why? Because we wrote a couple of articles about the RL Paints we used successfully, and we keep a message board specifically devoted to that paint and the topics and problems associated with it. The odd thing is the number of folks who seem to think that we, the Fix Chicks, ARE Ralph Lauren. Truth be told, I have no idea if there even IS a real Ralph Lauren. Have you ever seen him? I haven’t. And besides, I think he was supposed to be a clothing designer. How his name got stuck on a can of paint, I don’t know.
Guys and gals, let’s put this in perspective - first of all it’s only paint. If you don’t like it, paint over it. It’s not PLAIN paint - it requires technique and patience to apply, but it’s not real texure. If you think you got ripped off, talk to the paint store where you bought the paint - perhaps they’ll be willing to exchange it for regular paint. If you’re really PO’d about it, call the customer service number on the paint can and ask for Ralph… I dare ya. 
Yes, there is a real Ralph, just as real as Mr. Calvin Klein and Mr. Tommy Hilfiger. But unlike his other two colleagues in the rag trade, he gave up his original name, maybe because he figured not too many people would want to buy clothes with a Ralph Lifshitz label (true name!). He is 69 years old and has plenty of houses of his own to try his paint on. His dad actually made a living painting houses, although I’m sure Ralph has not personally blended any more gallons of paint than Martha Stewart has (the other celebrity name on paint cans).
It’s the first time I commented here and I should say you provide us genuine, and quality information for bloggers! Great job.
p.s. You have a very good template for your blog. Where did you find it?
It’s a difficult problem. I understand both sides of the argument because of how fairly you have presented them here. I look forward to your updates on the subject.
If this is true, then it’s really good that you actually said it. On the other hand, I’m sure other people should be hearing about it.
