Before you call

Industrial painting: the short version

Wet paint, epoxy or ceramic coatings like Cerakote, sprayed on metal as a service.

When you need it

  • Exhaust headers, manifolds and turbo parts
  • Machinery, frames and steel that's too big for an oven
  • Parts that need a wet paint finish
  • Touch-up and repaint after a repair

What to send the shop

  • Photos and sizes of each part
  • Metal and current coating
  • How hot the part runs, for exhaust parts
  • Colour or coating you want
  • Quantity and your target date

Typical lead time

Turnaround depends on the number of parts at one Hamilton coater. Single parts can be quick.
