What Ceramic Coating Does

Ceramic coating forms a clear, durable layer that bonds to the surface. It adds chemical resistance, UV defense, and a slick finish that releases dirt and grime. The result is faster wash downs, less staining, and paint that stays brighter over time.

Agriculture

Combines, sprayers, tractors, grain carts

Trucking and Fleet

Semis, dump trucks, service bodies, trailers

Industrial and Construction

Loaders, dozers, forklifts, plant equipment

Benefits That Matter in the Field


We design our ceramic coating process around the real demands of farm and fleet equipment. Beyond shine, the protection extends to corrosion-prone surfaces, vulnerable plastics, and the daily fight against water spotting. These are the benefits operators notice every season.


  • Faster cleanup after mud and manure
  • Defense against winter road salt, fertilizers, and chemical runoff
  • Added barrier against corrosion on painted and exposed metal surfaces
  • UV protection that reduces fading and cracking on plastics and trim
  • Less paint fade and oxidation through the season
  • Lower soap and water use during wash downs
  • Fewer water spots after rinsing
  • Better resale value and easier fleet appearance standards


Before and After Proof


Equipment should look as good in the field as it does on paper. These real results show how ceramic coating restores appearance and makes ongoing upkeep easier.

Our Process That Makes the Difference

🔍

Inspection and Prep

We measure paint condition, mask sensitive areas, and remove bonded contamination to create a stable base.

Correction as Needed

We remove oxidation, stains, acid etching, and scuffs where it improves appearance and cleanup, ensuring the coating bonds correctly.

🛡️

Application and Cure

We apply the ceramic coating by hand or spray, then allow proper cure time before equipment returns to service.

When We Use Spray Application

For large flat panels and complex shapes we may add a spray applied layer to ensure even coverage and reliable protection in hard to reach areas. This complements hand application and helps deliver predictable results across the entire surface.

  • Uniform coverage on wide panels and cabs
  • Consistent film build across edges and contours
  • Tandem protection with hand application for complex parts
  • Improved access to boom arms, frames, welds, and recesses
  • Professional finish with repeatable results

Materials and Standards

We select coatings proven for real-world durability on both single stage and two stage finishes, as well as painted and bare metal surfaces common to farm and fleet equipment. Our standard systems target year-round resistance to UV exposure, agrichemicals, fertilizers, detergents, water spotting, and road salt, while also providing a barrier against corrosion on high-wear components. Current options include Roar AG and Cerakote MC-2200, while contenders such as Endura EX-2C and Aegis are in active evaluation to verify long-term performance. For operators dealing with frequent caustic washes or solvent exposure, we tailor coating packages to meet those demands without sacrificing performance or service life.

Common Ceramic Coating Questions

Do you offer a guarantee on your ceramic coating services?

Yes. We provide a multi-year guarantee on all ceramic coating projects when equipment is maintained with normal washing.

How long does a ceramic coating last on equipment?

A ceramic coating typically lasts three to five years on farm and trucking equipment when properly maintained. Many customers report their paint lasting twice as long compared to uncoated machines.

Do I need to wax my equipment after ceramic coating?

No. Ceramic coating replaces the need for waxing and provides longer-lasting protection.

Is ceramic coating resistant to corrosion and oxidation?

Yes. Ceramic coating slows down corrosion and oxidation by sealing the surface and reducing exposure to oxygen, moisture, and chemicals.

"They took care of it like it was their own."

Gotta say, I was pretty blown away by how my JD 8R looked after it got polished and ceramic coated. Bruce and Heath knew their stuff, taking care of it like it was their own. They brought back the green and yellow like it was brand new.

If you have questions he's always more than happy to pick up the phone and talk to you. He's honest about what he can and cannot do for you. Beyond happy and will be continuing my business with him for a long time.

"they looked better than the day they rolled off the assembly line."

Bruce with BK Industrial Coatings delivers more than promised. We had them ceramic coat 3 tractors last fall. They are so meticulous and detail oriented that I believe the tractors looked better than the day they rolled off the assembly line. Bruce is very professional and is very easy to work with. Communication with them was simple. I highly recommend you give BK Industrial your business if you are looking at bringing older machinery back to life.
