Industrial Painting Services
Northern Indiana’s industrial facilities demand durability, safety, and coatings that can handle nonstop use, and that’s exactly what we deliver. Custom Paint & Finish works inside the factories, warehouses, and production plants that power Goshen, Elkhart, and the surrounding region.
Our team understands the unique challenges that come with the constant motion of industrial spaces, equipment wear, humidity, and chemical exposure, and we design coating solutions that stand up to it all.
We work around your schedule, coordinate with your team, and keep disruption to a minimum. When your facility needs long-lasting protection and a professional finish, we’re the trusted local choice.
Industrial Coatings That Last
Industrial painting focuses on protecting your facility, extending your equipment's lifespan, maintaining safety and compliance, and enhancing overall aesthetics. At Custom Paint & Finish, we work inside factories, warehouses, and production plants that drive Northern Indiana’s economy.
From Goshen’s manufacturing districts to Elkhart’s industrial parks and the busy logistics centers around South Bend and Mishawaka, we provide coating systems designed to endure real-world conditions.
Our team brings years of hands-on experience in industrial environments, where every surface, every deadline, and every safety requirement matters. Whether you’re refreshing a production line or tackling a full facility repaint, we treat your space like a mission-critical asset.
Built for Harsh Conditions, Not Just Pretty Walls
Industrial buildings face far more abuse than the average office or retail space. Forklifts bump columns, chemicals splash onto floors, steam and humidity attack ceilings, and exterior structures take a beating from UV, snow, and Midwest temperature swings.
We don’t just “paint", we design coating systems tailored for your environment. We use zinc-rich primers to prevent corrosion on steel, two-part epoxies for durable floors, and urethane topcoats to prevent fading and peeling. For steel requiring a fire rating, we apply intumescent coatings that expand upon exposure to heat, providing extra protection during emergencies.
Every recommendation we make is tied to your building’s actual use. A warehouse with heavy forklift traffic needs something different from a food-processing plant with constant wash-downs or a fabrication shop with high airborne dust. We evaluate your surfaces, exposure, and workflow so you end up with a coating system that performs, not just one that looks good on day one.
Prep Work That Makes All the Difference
Prep work is crucial. A perfect coating fails if applied over grease, rust, dust, or failing paint. We prioritize surface prep for durability and value.
Our process typically starts with deep cleaning, removing oil residue, grime, and loose coatings using high-pressure washing and degreasing solutions. In older buildings around Elkhart and Goshen, where layers of outdated paint and rust buildup are common, we use power-tool cleaning or media blasting to restore steel to the profile recommended by the manufacturer.
Cracks in masonry walls, damaged concrete, and worn expansion joints are repaired before any coating is applied. We also check film thickness as we use each layer to ensure your new system is built exactly to spec.
Full-Facility Solutions, Inside and Out
No two facilities are alike, and no two industrial painting projects follow the same blueprint. One week, we may be coating rafters and bar joists in a high-bay distribution center; the next, we’re applying epoxy floors in a Goshen machine shop or repainting exterior silos along U.S. 6.
Our capabilities include structural steel, tanks, mezzanines, process equipment, loading docks, warehouse walls and ceilings, mechanical rooms, and interior production areas. We also assist with OSHA color-coding for pipes, walkways, and safety markings, especially in facilities with complex systems.
We Work Around Your Production, Not Against It
We know downtime costs money, so we plan industrial painting projects around your schedule. For many local plants and warehouses, that means working nights, weekends, or during scheduled shutdowns. We coordinate closely with your operations team to ensure our work never disrupts production flow or safety protocols.
Our crews are trained in lift operation, fall protection, and facility-specific safety requirements. Before we begin, we walk the site, identify access points, and develop a staging plan that keeps your people and our people safe.
Dust control, overspray containment, and daily clean-up are baked into our process. You’ll receive progress updates, clear timelines, and open communication from start to finish.
