Surface Preparation in San Francisco & the Bay Area
Blast or grind to the exact profile your coating spec requires.
Most coating failures are prep failures. We prepare substrates to the profile your product spec calls for — ICRI CSP 2–6 on concrete, SSPC-SP6 commercial or SP10 near-white on steel — so the coating you're paying for actually bonds.
We work directly for coating contractors, general contractors and facility managers who need the prep done right on schedule, usually 2–3 days out.
Documentation available on request: profile tape readings, photos and a prep report for your closeout package.
