Fuel, Oil & Diesel Tank Coating Contractors
Exterior coating, corrosion prevention, and lining support for fuel, oil, diesel, and petroleum storage tanks across Ohio, the Midwest, and nationwide.
MPC provides fuel, oil, diesel, gasoline, waste oil, and petroleum storage tank coating services for aboveground storage tanks, fixed roof tanks, horizontal tanks, active fuel assets, and related industrial storage infrastructure.
Our crews specialize in protective coatings that extend tank life, prevent corrosion, support SPCC and environmental risk reduction, and help facilities keep fuel assets safer, cleaner, and more durable.
We handle exterior fuel tank coating, abrasive surface preparation, coating-system selection, DFT verification, and interior lining coordination where needed. Propane and LPG tanks remain part of our dedicated propane tank painting process.

Benefits of Professional Tank Coating
Professional coating protects fuel and petroleum tanks from corrosion, coating failure, contamination risk, and costly outage events.
- Corrosion protection for aging steel fuel tanks
- Petroleum-compatible coating and lining support
- Reduced contamination risk from rust and coating failure
- UV-stable exterior topcoats for outdoor tank farms
- Surface preparation and DFT checks for specification compliance
- SPCC-aware planning for regulated fuel storage sites
- Asset-life extension without unnecessary tank replacement
Fuel Tank Coating Systems
We select coating systems based on stored product, substrate, exposure, surface profile, temperature, and facility requirements.
- Zinc-rich primers for corrosion protection
- Epoxy intermediate coats for fuel and oil service environments
- Polyurethane topcoats for UV stability and gloss retention
- Polyurea or epoxy interior lining coordination where required
- High-heat resistant coatings for elevated-temperature applications
Our Process
Inspection & Assessment
We evaluate your tank's current condition, identify corrosion, coating failures, and environmental factors to recommend the right coating system.
We evaluate your tank's current condition, identify corrosion, coating failures, and environmental factors to recommend the right coating system.
Proper surface prep is the foundation of a lasting coating. We blast surfaces to the required SSPC profile to ensure maximum adhesion.
Our SSPC-certified crews apply the specified coating or lining system in controlled layers, verifying thickness and conditions at every stage.
We perform a thorough final inspection, provide documentation, and hand off a tank prepared for years of service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. MPC coats aboveground fuel storage tanks, diesel tanks, oil tanks, waste oil tanks, fuel depot tanks, and petroleum storage assets for commercial and industrial facilities in Ohio, the Midwest, and nationwide.
For exterior fuel tank coating, we typically recommend a zinc-rich primer, epoxy intermediate coat, and polyurethane topcoat for corrosion and UV protection. Interior linings depend on the stored product, tank condition, and compatibility requirements.
Yes. MPC handles exterior fuel tank painting and coating, corrosion-prevention systems, abrasive surface preparation, and interior lining coordination where the stored product and tank condition require it.
Exterior coating can often be done while a tank remains in service. Interior lining requires the tank to be emptied, cleaned, and properly ventilated. We work with your operations team to schedule downtime efficiently — for a typical 30,000 gallon tank, expect about 2 days of turnaround.
We assess the existing coating, corrosion, surface profile, environment, tank contents, and compliance requirements before selecting a coating system. Work may include solvent cleaning, abrasive blasting, zinc-rich primer, epoxy, polyurethane, DFT checks, and inspection documentation.
Yes. We select coating systems that support environmental protection goals and tanks subject to SPCC planning. We also account for state, local, site, and manufacturer requirements before finalizing the coating specification.
Fuel, oil, diesel, and petroleum tanks are handled here. Propane and LPG tanks have different pressure-vessel, color, and operating considerations, so we support them through the dedicated propane tank painting page.
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!”
Paul Teeters
