Structural Steel & Weldments
Frames, beams, bases and fabricated assemblies coated for corrosion resistance in service.
Batch work for manufacturers, fabricators and OEM shops in Stanton and across Mid-Michigan. Repeatable color, corrosion resistance that holds up in the field, and a turnaround that lines up with your ship date.
Industrial & Production Runs
Production coating is a different problem than one-off work. The finish still has to be right, but now it has to be identical across every part in the run, it has to survive whatever the field throws at it, and it has to be back on your dock when you said it would be. Miss any one of those and it's a scheduling problem for someone downstream.
We partner with manufacturers, fabricators, machine shops and OEM suppliers across Mid-Michigan on exactly that kind of work: racks, frames, brackets, enclosures, structural pieces, tooling, guarding and replacement components. Every part runs the same documented sequence — blasted, degreased, profiled, masked, coated, cured and inspected.
Because we're a family-run shop, you deal directly with the people doing the coating. When you call about a run, you're talking to John or his son — not a queue — and if there's a problem you hear about it from us before it becomes a surprise.
Stanton is about 16 miles northwest of the shop, roughly 20 to 25 minutes door to door. Stanton is the Montcalm County seat — a small city surrounded by the lakes, farmland and cottage country of central Montcalm, where a lot of what needs coating spends its life outdoors. We get a steady stream of brackets, racks, weldments and production batches from Stanton and the surrounding Montcalm County towns, and most of those customers make the drive because there isn't another shop nearby running blasting, prep, coating and curing under one roof. Call ahead on 989-289-2298 and we'll have a quote ready before you load up.
Small design details make a big difference in coating — drain and vent holes, hanging points, sharp inside corners, tight blind pockets and where masking lands. Ten minutes on a first article can save rework across an entire run.
Volume, repeatability and parts that have to perform.
Frames, beams, bases and fabricated assemblies coated for corrosion resistance in service.
Material handling racks, carts, cabinets and enclosures finished to hold up to daily plant use.
High-count batch runs of brackets, mounts, clips and hardware coated to a consistent color and film build.
Guards, panels, housings and machine parts coated for wear, chemical exposure and cleanability.
Frames, ramps, mounts and hardware built for road salt, spray and constant loading.
Jigs, fixtures and tooling coated for identification, corrosion protection and shop durability.
Coating as a step in your production flow, scheduled against your build and ship dates.
Field replacement components finished to match the original equipment they're going onto.
Set it up once, then repeat it exactly.
Part count, geometry, substrate, color, film requirements and your delivery date — settled before anything gets scheduled.
We coat a sample so you can approve color, coverage and masking before the rest of the run goes through.
Parts are blasted, degreased and profiled in controlled batches so surface condition is consistent from the first piece to the last.
Threads, bores, ground points, machined faces and any surface that has to stay bare are masked the same way on every part.
Consistent application and a controlled cure across the run — same powder, same process, same result on every piece.
Parts are checked for coverage and finish, then packed to reach you undamaged and ready to install.
Same powder, same prep, same cure on every piece, so part number 400 matches part number 1 — which is what matters when they're going into the same assembly.
No account layer between you and the shop floor. Questions about a run get answered by whoever is actually running it.
Short hauls, quick turnarounds, and it's easy to drive over and look at a first article instead of approving it off a photo.
Indoor equipment, outdoor exposure, chemical contact and wear all call for different finishes. We'll spec the coating for where the part actually lives.
Stanton is a fraction of the drive to Grand Rapids or Lansing, and you're dealing with the same veteran-owned, family-run shop from quote to pickup. Blasting through curing all happens in one building — your parts never leave Montcalm County's back yard mid-job.

Custom fabrication deserves a nice powder coat and these guys rock. Very happy with the work, I'll be back again.
I had four wheels powder coated — excellent work, fast turnaround. Very friendly people to work with. Great price!
Straight answers to what customers ask us most. Anything not covered here, just call the shop.
Yes. Our shop is at 7883 South St. in Carson City, about 16 miles northwest of Stanton — roughly 20 to 25 minutes door to door. Customers from Stanton and across Montcalm County bring us brackets, racks, weldments and production batches regularly. Call or text 989-289-2298 and we'll quote the job before you make the drive.
About 16 miles northwest, which is about 20 to 25 minutes of driving depending on where in Stanton you start. We're open every day from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, so a drop-off is easy to fit around work.
Yes — batch and production work is a core part of what the shop does, alongside personal projects. Call 989-289-2298 with your part count, size and timeline and we'll tell you honestly what we can schedule and when.
We can. Give us the powder specification, a color chip or an approved sample part and we'll match to it and note it for future runs so repeat orders stay consistent.
That's our standard approach on production work. Coating a sample first lets you sign off on color, coverage and masking before the whole run goes through — it's the cheapest place to catch a problem.
It depends on part count, size and what else is on the schedule, so we quote lead time with the job rather than promising a blanket number. Tell us your ship date up front and we'll tell you whether we can hit it.
Tell us where the part lives — indoors, outdoors, chemical exposure, abrasion, UV — and we'll recommend a coating suited to it. If you're working to a specific written spec, send it over and we'll confirm we can meet it before you commit.
Regularly. Fabricators, machine shops, OEM suppliers and equipment builders across Montcalm, Gratiot, Ionia and Clinton counties use us as the coating step in their process. Being local keeps freight cheap and turnaround short.
