Professional Service
The Coatings Group offers a full range of services to the Refining, Petrochemical, Marine, Power & Utility, and Offshore production industries. Our unique mix of coating crafts offered includes but is not limited to thermal spray metalizing, industrial floor coatings, internal lining, and special application blasting.

Flexibility and Choice
Superior quality craftsmanship and materials are always demonstrated, whether your coatings requirements are fulfilled at our blast yard, on your job site or during large-scale jobs such as outages, turnarounds, maintenance painting or capital projects.

Blastrac Shot Blasting
Shot blasting is a method used on concrete and steel surfaces which prepares the surface for the application of a coating, paint or sealer. The shot blast machine works by propelling steel shot at a high velocity onto a surface. This creates the proper profile on the surface layer of the concrete or steel, taking dirt, coatings, paint or other contaminants with it. A vacuum system in the machine pulls the debris into a chamber where an air wash system separates the debris from the shot. The debris is sent to the dust collector and the reusable shot is recycled.

Thermal Metalizing Spray
The metalizing process always begins with proper surface preparation. Next, aluminum wire or zinc wire is continuously melted in an electric arc spray gun. Clean, compressed air strips droplets of molten metal from the wire depositing these particles onto the steel forming the protective coating. This sprayed metal coating is both a barrier coating and a galvanic coating in one. A single metalized coating protects steel for 30 years or longer depending upon the application, coating thickness and sealing.
