How 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 ranch steel is worth a real coating
Weather and animals are hard on steel. A bonded primer and a tough topcoat stand up to both better than a can of spray paint ever will.
- Weather resistantSun, rain and dust meet a sealed surface instead of bare metal.
- Real prepRust and scale come off before priming, which is what makes it last.
- A tougher finishA hard topcoat takes rubbing and scrapes better than thin paint.
- Looks well keptA uniform color across gates and pens is noticed from the road.

Questions about steel coating
Can you coat pipe gates and cattle pens?
Yes. Gates, pens, chutes and rail can be prepared, primed and topcoated. Send photos and rough footage.
Does steel have to be taken down to coat it?
It depends on the steel and the access. Send photos showing where it stands and we'll talk through what's practical.
What is the best coating for outdoor ranch steel?
An epoxy primer with a UV-stable urethane topcoat is a common choice for steel that lives outdoors, since it bonds, seals and keeps its color.
Will it hold up with animals around?
A hard topcoat takes rubbing and scrapes better than thin paint. Heavy-contact points are always the first place wear shows.
Do you serve ranches outside the cities?
Yes, in the areas around Houston, Austin and San Antonio. Tell us where the property is.
