Industrial Sandblasting Contractor For Coating-Ready Steel

Industrial Sandblasting Contractor For Coating-Ready Steel

Ohio-based abrasive blasting crews for tanks, structural steel, equipment, facilities, and infrastructure across the Midwest and nationwide.

SSPC/NACE Surface PrepContainment PlanningNationwide Service

MPC provides industrial sandblasting contractor services for commercial and industrial assets that need old coating, corrosion, mill scale, or contaminants removed before inspection, repair, painting, or lining.

Our crews prepare tanks, structural steel, heavy equipment, machinery, fabricated steel, and facility surfaces to the SSPC/NACE profile and cleanliness requirements in the project specification.

Containment, dust control, access, safety, cleanup, and coating-ready handoff are planned before mobilization. This is contractor-grade industrial blasting, not equipment rental, DIY blasting, consumer auto/frame work, powder coating, or pressure washing.

Industrial Sandblasting Scope

Industrial Assets We Blast

Industrial Assets We Blast

Commercial and industrial surfaces prepared for inspection, repair, coating, or return to service.

  • Storage tanks and process tanks
  • Structural steel, beams, columns, and platforms
  • Heavy equipment, machinery, and crane frames
  • Manufacturing, utility, public works, and infrastructure assets
Coating-Ready Surface Preparation

Coating-Ready Surface Preparation

Blast planning focused on the coating system, profile requirement, and field conditions.

  • SSPC SP5, SP6, SP10, or project-specific requirements
  • Surface profile verification for primer and topcoat adhesion
  • Dust, salt, chloride, and cleanliness checks where required
  • Blast-and-paint coordination when coating is part of scope
Commercial Mobilization

Commercial Mobilization

Crews mobilize with the equipment and controls needed for commercial job sites.

  • Ohio-based crews serving the Midwest and nationwide projects
  • Containment and dust-control setup
  • Access, shutdown, and active-facility scheduling
  • Cleanup and documented handoff

Our Process

We evaluate the asset, coating condition, substrate, access, schedule, and specification before recommending the blasting method and media.

On-site inspection of tanks, steel, equipment, or facility surfacesIdentify coatings, contaminants, and corrosionReview containment, dust-control, and access needsConfirm SSPC/NACE or project-specific requirements

We select the media and equipment needed to remove coatings or corrosion while achieving the required surface profile.

Abrasive, wet abrasive, dry ice, soda, shot, bristle, or water-jetting optionsPressure and media matched to substrate and coating systemSurface profile targets such as 2-3 mils when specifiedZero-silica media options including crushed glass and garnet

We set up containment, collection, ventilation, and safety controls appropriate for the site and scope.

Scaffolding, tarps, and containment barriersDust collection and industrial vacuum systemsFull PPE and respiratory protection for crewOSHA, EPA, and DOT regulatory compliance

Our operators blast to the required cleanliness and profile while monitoring conditions that affect coating readiness.

Blast to SSPC SP5, SP6, SP10, or required specContinuous monitoring of surface profileDFT inspection equipment for precision measurementMinimal disruption to surrounding operations

We verify the prepared surface, clean the work area, and coordinate the next coating step when painting or lining is part of the project.

02

SSPC/NACE Profile Control

Surface profile, cleanliness, dust, salts, chlorides, and coating readiness are checked against the project specification.

03

Containment & Dust Planning

Containment, collection, wet abrasive options, and site controls are planned around active industrial environments.

04

Method Matched To The Asset

Abrasive, wet abrasive, dry ice, soda, shot, bristle, laser, and water-jetting options are selected for the substrate and coating system.

05

Zero-Silica Media Options

Recycled crushed glass, garnet, and other silica-free media options support safer work areas and cleaner project closeout.

06

Blast-And-Coat Coordination

When coating is part of the scope, blasting and painting can be scheduled together to reduce downtime and flash-rust risk.

07

OSHA, EPA & DOT Awareness

Safety, environmental controls, access planning, and site documentation are part of the commercial project workflow.

08

Ohio, Midwest & Nationwide

Ohio-based crews mobilize for commercial and industrial sandblasting projects across the Midwest and the United States.

Yes. MPC is based in Ohio and mobilizes for industrial sandblasting work across the Midwest and nationwide when the project scope warrants a traveling commercial crew.

What Our Clients Say

Markley Precision Company was easy to work with and the quality of their work is second to none. I have used them on three separate projects and have been very pleased with the quality of work each time. No job seems to be too big or too small. I have used them to blast and paint a 30,000 gallon propane tank, and to blast and paint our vertical bulk storage vessels for nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. They've even done work for me on the Lake Erie Islands, as well, which presented logistical challenges, but MPC didn't miss a beat. I would recommend MPC 100 out of 100 times.

Matt Drennen

Very happy with the work completed so far with MPC. Last year, I had them paint 5 of our 30,000 gallon bullet tanks. The work was completed quickly and professionally. With a years worth of age on them now, they still look as good as new! I was so pleased with their work on the tanks, I hired them to complete an even larger, more complex project blasting and recoating a natural gas processing mechanical refrigeration unit. Even when some concerns came up, they quickly remediated the situation. Extremely happy with the work they've performed!
