Painting Metal Is a Special Skill

Not all professional painters in Tempe are skilled at painting metal. It requires a specialized process that is different than painting more porous surfaces. As with most painting projects, preparation is still the most important step in painting metal. Before even beginning the actual painting process, there are several steps that are critical to the quality of the finish.

  • Use the right products to clean the metal surface of grease and grime buildup.
  • Sand down the surface of glossy metal finishes, as well as to remove flaking paint and rust spots. Extreme cases will need to be sandblasted.
  • Apply industrial grade metal primer appropriate for the type of metal. This protects the metal surface so it will last longer.

ACP Painting uses an airless sprayer to paint all metal structures in Tempe. The paint we use is specifically made for metal structures to protect them from the weather. The finish is smooth and attractive, while also being visually appealing. Painting bridges, pedestrian walkways and overpasses has its own special challenges. During the paint project, most bridges remain open to traffic. This requires traffic control and employing extra safety precautions to avoid injuries and accidents.

FAQs About Our Metal Painting Services


How Do You Prime Metal Surfaces Before Painting Them?

To ensure the metal surface is properly prepared, we use mineral spirits to remove grease, buildup, and rust. Next, we use a rust-inhibitive primer before applying the actual paint to ensure the surface is completely clean and ready to bond with the paint. If the surface is already painted and in sound condition, it is de-glossed and wiped carefully.

What Should You Do With Rust Before Painting A Metal Structure?

All rust must be thoroughly removed to ensure lasting results and complete adhesion with the paint. Our contractors will first coat any deeply rusted areas with a special primer that is designed to convert rusty surfaces to a paintable. Next, we apply a thick coat of rust-inhibitive primer before painting.

How Long Does Paint Usually Last On A Metal Surface?

The actual time varies depending on factors such as the initial condition of the metal, exposure to elements, wear and tear, type of paint used, and more. While you can generally expect paint on a metal surface to last anywhere between 5-20 years, the best option is to speak directly with your contractor for a specific estimate.

What Kind Of Paint Do You Use On A Metal Surface?

The best choice of paint for a metal surface is usually enamel or an oil-based paint. Each of these options can be extremely difficult to find, but they deliver a tough, hard finish that will protect the surface for many years. At ACP Painting, we can help you find the best type of paint for your project.

Are There Any Other Products You Must Use On Metal Before Painting It?

The first step to any painting project is to thoroughly clean the surface before applying anything to it. Though it may appear clean, there can be grease, dirt, or rust on it that is not easily visible. Use a solvent such as acetone or mineral spirits to dissolve any buildup, and be sure to use a high-quality primer.

What Color Should I Consider Painting My Metal Structures In Arizona?

The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Arizona is the dry heat and constant sun exposure. It is important to use either a specialized UV-protective paint, or a color that will reflect the heat rather than absorb it and quickly become dangerously hot. This is particularly important when considering playground structures or other areas that will be touched frequently.

How Can I Make The Paint On A Metal Surface More Durable?

After deep cleaning and priming the surface to prepare for paint, the best thing you can do to ensure lasting results is to apply an intermediate or finish coat. This is a special coat of sealant designed to decrease the permeability of the paint to moisture, and enhance its protection against environmental factors.
