Industrial interior painting

No matter if your industrial equipment is working indoors or braving the elements outdoors, it has to be shielded from the tough conditions of a factory. Things like scorching heat, freezing cold, ash, acid rain, airborne debris, and more can really degrade industrial equipment over time. It is important to note that paint does more than just make your industrial equipment look good – it shields it from corrosion, rust, and other harm. It’s a smart move in any economic situation to prolong the life of your industrial gear through regular upkeep and a new paint job when necessary.

A quality paint job acts as a protective barrier against moisture & corrosive chemicals. This all simplifies the task of keeping machinery free from dirt, oil, debris, & grease. Shielding your equipment from wear and corrosion, along with the ease of maintaining cleanliness, will result in a long equipment operational life. It will lead to cost savings in the long term.

We employ a variety of methods, including;

  • Hand-cleaning & wiping (for minimal moisture)
  • Debris containment and removal through blowing or vacuuming, power washing, and other surface preparation methods.

Our paints are customized for your equipment’s function, location, and temperature requirements.

Pro-Level Surface Prep at GetPro

Getting the surface ready is a key part of painting industrial equipment like a professional. If you avoid skipping or overlooking this step, the outcome won’t have that polished look or endure as long. That’s why we’ve invested a lot of time and training over the years to nail down the preparation process just right.

Here at GetPro Painting, our technicians are skilled in using a range of techniques to thoroughly clean industrial equipment. For lighter cleaning needs, we might employ grease cutters, sanding, scraping, and other straightforward methods. However, when it comes to more demanding situations, like cleaning fuel & oil tanks, tractors, forklifts, portable heating units, light towers, and the various types of industrial equipment we paint regularly, we often need to use more robust cleaning methods.

If sandblasting can effectively clean away grease, oil, grime, and other debris without causing harm to industrial equipment, it’s our go-to choice due to its effectiveness and cost-efficiency. Nevertheless, we have an array of abrasive blasting techniques available. We deploy these methods as needed, always taking care to safeguard your industrial equipment.

We employ diverse methods such as almond or coconut shell blasting, walnut shell blasting, corn cob blasting, dry ice blasting, and more. For industrial machinery, vacuum blasting is often the optimal choice. This technique sucks up materials and debris into a specialized system, separating the debris and enabling the reuse of materials. Once all impurities are cleared and the industrial equipment is thoroughly sanded, we proceed to the painting phase.

Paints & Coatings

A meticulously prepared surface is crucial for optimal adhesion when we apply our top-notch primers, paints & coatings. As the foremost industrial equipment painting contractor, we prioritize the quality of the materials we use. At GetPro Painting, our focus is on delivering outstanding value. We understand that opting for cheaper materials might seem like a cost-saving move that delivers long-term value.

In truth, inexpensive materials often demand extra coats to achieve the same coverage as their higher-quality counterparts. Additionally, these budget-friendly products lack durability, leading to more frequent repainting. When you weigh these factors, it becomes evident that the most cost-effective approach involves using high-quality paints and relying on the expert application skills of GetPro Painting.

The preferred options for painting industrial equipment are enamels and powder coatings applied using electrostatic methods. These materials not only look good but also offer durability, and they come in a diverse range of colors. Typically, we apply them using powder coating methods or spray painting, and the selection depends on the size and purpose of the industrial equipment.
