SANDBLASTING & PAINTING SERVICES

SANDBLASTING & PAINTING SERVICES

As part of our comprehensive job shop services, at Signal Metal Industries, Inc. we offer coating services that cover everything from small parts to our specialty, which are large, oversized weldments. Our NACE-certified coating service department is anchored by a large, state-of-the-art steel grit blasting booth with dimensions of 50' in length x 20' in width x 20' in height, followed by an even bigger paint booth with 70' x 20' x 20' capacity. We are capable of building customized racking systems for parts of any size as well as transport fixtures to facilitate the processing of large fabrications.

Pre-coating preparation ensures uniform coating adhesion. We can remove old coating layers as well as wash and degrease parts prior to coating application. Using various sizes of steel grit, we can alter the surface profile to accommodate a range of coating types. We also mask off portions of a workpiece for selective coating applications or to protect sensitive machine surfaces.

Along with zinc enriched epoxy, polyurethane, and enamel coatings, we also spray on oil-based alkyd and chemical-resistant aliphatic formulations. We use airless and air-assist nozzles as well as air-assist agitated pot painting methods for ensuring consistent distribution of coatings with suspended pigments. Numerous quality checks include monitoring and adjustment of the booth atmosphere as well as digital profiling of the workpiece surface and coating layer, both in-process and upon completion. We issue NACE certified paint reports as necessary.
