CertaPro Painters® of Federal Way, WA recently transformed the exterior of a commercial Marina’s metal exterior using Sherwin Williams Industrial Coatings.
This marina warehouse had endured years of harsh waterfront conditions, leaving the metal siding badly faded with heavy oxidation and surface wear. The client wanted the metal wall to look new and that matched the vibrant blue of their branding while also protecting the building from continued weather and moisture exposure.
Because of its location directly over the water, the project demanded extra safety precautions to protect the surrounding environment and ensure the safety of our crew.
CertaPro Painters® of Federal Way implemented a comprehensive preparation and coating plan:
- Surface Preparation: The team used specialized cleaning methods to safely remove oxidation, residue, and chalking without contaminating the water.
- Rust & Oxidation Treatment: Areas of oxidation were neutralized and treated with appropriate primers to create a stable surface for new coatings.
- Environmental Safety: All work was performed with strict adherence to safety protocols, including containment measures to prevent debris or paint runoff into the marina.
- Industrial Coatings: Applied Sherwin-Williams industrial-grade coatings designed for metal structures in marine environments, ensuring long-lasting protection.
