Our Process
White-Glove Coating,
Start to Finish
You ship us the part. We handle everything else, from inspection and stripping to abrasive blasting, base coat, and the final finish. No prep required on your end.
A question we hear every day
“Do I need to prep or strip my parts first?”
No. We do it all, from start to finish. Drop off or ship us your parts exactly as they are, coated, rusty, or raw, and we take it from there.
How It Works
Six Steps to a Finish That Lasts
Every part follows the same disciplined process, from a single custom piece to a full production run. It is how we deliver finishes that look right and stay that way.
Intake & Inspection
When your parts arrive, we log and inspect every piece, then confirm the finish, color, and any masking up front. Nothing moves forward until we know exactly what the job needs.
Strip the Old Coating
Old paint, powder, Cerakote, rust, and oil all come off first. We take each part back to clean, sound base material, because a new finish is only as good as what sits underneath it.
Abrasive Blast for Adhesion
We abrasive-blast every surface to a uniform profile, the tooth that lets the coating physically lock to the metal. This mechanical adhesion is the biggest reason our finishes hold up.
Manufacturer-Spec Base Coat
Where the finish calls for it, we lay the correct primer or base coat to each coating manufacturer’s specification. The right foundation keeps the topcoat even, durable, and true to color.
Coating Application
Our certified team applies your finish, Cerakote, powder coat, or hydrographics, to precise film thickness in a controlled booth. Even coverage, crisp masked lines, and the exact color you approved.
Cure, Inspect & Return
Each finish is cured at its specified temperature, then inspected one last time against your spec. We package everything carefully for pickup or shipping across the US, Canada, and overseas.
Why Surface Profile Matters
Coatings Fail When the Prep Is Skipped
A finish is only as good as the surface underneath it. Spray over a smooth, oily, or previously coated part and that coating will chip, peel, and lift.
We abrasive-blast every part to a uniform surface profile so the coating grips mechanically, not just chemically. That one step is the difference between a finish that looks good on day one and one that still looks good years of hard use later.
