Yes. Agricultural parts often arrive with pitting corrosion from chemical exposure and moisture. Ultrasonic cavitation removes corrosion products from pit interiors and surface irregularities that blasting alone cannot fully clean. Corrosion products left in pits create adhesion weak spots where the new coating fails first. The combination of ultrasonic cleaning followed by sandblasting at 80-100 PSI produces the contamination-free, properly profiled surface that delivers maximum Cerakote adhesion and corrosion protection on agricultural equipment.

Yes. We coat valve bodies, stems, seats, and trim components for corrosive service environments including sour gas applications. Passivation of stainless steel substrates followed by Cerakote ceramic topcoat creates a dual-layer defense against hydrogen sulfide and chloride attack. Our quality documentation supports NACE MR0175 compliance requirements for materials used in sour service.

Yes. Cerakote V-Series formulations are rated to 2,000 degrees F, providing thermal protection for AM parts deployed in high-temperature industrial applications. The coating also serves as a thermal barrier, reducing heat transfer into the AM substrate. For polymer AM parts, H-Series Cerakote provides protection at standard industrial operating temperatures while adding the corrosion and chemical resistance that raw PA12 and PA11 surfaces lack. Temperature requirements drive formulation selection during our engineering review.

Yes. Fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides contain aggressive chemical compounds that attack conventional paint and powder coat finishes. Cerakote's ceramic-polymer chemistry resists this chemical attack while maintaining color stability. ColoradoKote verifies color hold through chemical exposure as part of our quality process. For sprayer components and chemical application equipment, Cerakote provides both chemical protection and lasting color identification that conventional coatings cannot maintain in agricultural chemical environments.

We offer over 200 standard Cerakote colors spanning the full spectrum from flat tactical blacks to high-gloss automotive finishes. For proprietary colors, our custom color matching service can replicate Pantone references, RAL numbers, OEM paint codes, or physical samples to within Delta E 1.5. Multi-year production programs receive documented color standards that ensure consistency across reorders.
