Liquid finishing, tuned to your part.
Wet finishing with automated or handheld application — engineered around your material, part size, protection requirements, and the weatherability your product demands.
The process
Every variable, accounted for.
Liquid coating uses a wet finishing process applied with automated or handheld equipment. Getting it right means balancing the substrate, the environment, and the finish your customer expects.
We take into account product material, weight, size, protection needs, and coating weatherability to engineer a tailored liquid coating solution — application, flash, and cure included.
What we engineer for
Built around your requirements.
Material & Substrate
Steel, aluminum, plastics, and mixed assemblies — application matched to what you're finishing.
Part Size & Weight
Booth envelope, conveyance, and flow designed for your largest and heaviest parts.
Protection Needs
From decorative topcoats to heavy corrosion protection, specified to the duty your parts will see.
Weatherability
Indoor or outdoor exposure, UV and chemical resistance — coatings chosen for the real world.
Automated or Manual
Reciprocators and robotics for volume, or skilled handheld application for variety and complexity.
Spray Booths & Ovens
Liquid spray booths, flash zones, and curing ovens engineered as one continuous line.
Line stages
Six stages. One integrated system.
Pretreatment & Wash
Multi-stage washers and pretreatment clean, degrease, and prepare the substrate for coating adhesion and corrosion resistance.
Application
Liquid spray booths with automated reciprocators or skilled handheld guns — matched to your part mix and finish quality requirements.
Flash-Off Zone
Controlled flash-off areas let solvents evaporate evenly before curing, preventing runs and defects.
Curing Ovens
Gas or electric curing ovens engineered for precise temperature control and the throughput your line demands.
Conveyance & Controls
Material handling, control systems, and spiral ductwork that tie the line together and keep it running.
Retrofit & Upgrade
Improve, expand, or modernize an existing liquid line — without replacing what already works.
Every stage is fabricated in-house — see our product catalog for booths, ovens, and washers, or explore our service and retrofit capabilities for existing lines.
