Benefits of Tank Linings
Interior linings create a barrier between tank contents and the metal substrate, preventing corrosion, contamination, and costly failures.
- Product Protection — Prevents contamination of stored materials
- Asset Protection — Extends tank lifespan significantly
- Avoid Costly Emergency Downtime — Prevents unexpected failures
Lining Systems Available
We match the right lining to your application, selecting from proven systems based on your stored product, temperature range, and chemical exposure.
- Vinyl Esters (6-40 mils) — Excellent chemical resistance
- Zinc Silicates — Cathodic protection for steel
- Glass-Mat Reinforced Linings — Crack bridging, secondary containment
- Epoxies (pH 3-14 range) — Versatile chemical resistance
- Polyurea (60-120 mils) — Cures in 6-8 seconds, highly flexible
How We Select Your Lining
We assess multiple factors to recommend the optimal lining system for your specific application.
- Chemical Composition of stored materials
- Temperature Management requirements
- pH Level of contents
- Usage Frequency and cycling
- Tank Size and Capacity
- Environmental Conditions
- Downtime constraints and installation speed needs
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 your coating system in controlled layers, verifying thickness and adhesion at every stage.
We perform a thorough final inspection, provide documentation, and hand off a tank that's ready for years of service.

Frequently Asked Questions
A tank lining is an interior protective barrier applied to the inside of a tank to protect the metal from the stored contents (chemicals, water, fuel). A tank coating is applied to the exterior to protect against weather, UV, and atmospheric corrosion. Many tanks need both — an interior lining and an exterior coating — for complete protection.
Depending on the lining system and the stored product, tank linings typically last 10 to 20 years. Aggressive chemicals or high temperatures may reduce lifespan. We select lining systems matched to your specific conditions to maximize service life and can provide maintenance programs for ongoing protection.
Yes. In many cases, localized lining damage can be repaired without stripping and re-lining the entire tank. Our team can assess the damage, determine whether a spot repair or full re-lining is needed, and execute the work with minimal downtime.
We serve petroleum, chemical processing, water and wastewater treatment, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and secondary containment applications. Our experience spans thousands of tanks across dozens of industries.
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!”
