See moreHow a steel coating job goes
The same four steps on every piece, whatever the size.
Look at the steel
What it is, where it lives and how it fails today: rust, peeling paint, chemical splash, or bare metal that has not been protected yet.
Prepare the surface
Coatings hold or fail on the prep. Rust, mill scale, oil and old paint come off down to clean, profiled metal.
Prime
A primer goes on bare steel to bond to it and slow rust from starting underneath the finish.
Topcoat and cure
A hard, washable topcoat in the color you choose, left to cure fully before the steel goes back to work.

Why Austin steel gets a real coating
Texas sun, sudden storms and gravel roads wear on bare or lightly painted steel. A primer-and-topcoat system is built for that, and a repaint-it-yearly routine isn't.
- Built for sunA UV-stable urethane topcoat holds color and gloss where plain epoxy would chalk.
- Sealed against weatherPrimer bonded to clean steel keeps rain and humidity off the metal.
- Prep firstRust, scale and old paint come off before anything is applied.

Questions about steel coating
What coating holds up to Austin sun on steel?
A UV-stable urethane topcoat over an epoxy primer is the common choice. The primer bonds to the steel and the urethane keeps its color and gloss in strong sunlight.
Can you coat steel that is already painted?
Often, yes. The old finish is checked and scuffed or removed depending on its condition. Anything peeling or bubbling comes off completely first.
Do you work with fabricators and builders around Austin?
Yes. Fabricated parts, frames, stairs, gates and building steel are all the kind of work this page is for. Send photos and rough quantities.
Which towns near Austin do you serve?
Austin and nearby towns including Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Pflugerville, Lakeway, Leander, Kyle, Buda and San Marcos. Ask if yours isn't listed.
Is a coating better than paint for steel?
A properly prepared primer-and-topcoat coating is built to bond and seal in a way ordinary paint usually isn't, which is why it tends to outlast repainting. The prep matters as much as the product.
