Heavy-Duty Wet Paint Coating for Industrial Applications
Northpoint provides specialist industrial wet-paint services for fabricated steelwork, components and equipment, delivering heavy-duty corrosion protection for demanding environments.
Our dedicated 14m industrial wet paint facility supports complex coating systems and large components, with solutions specified for applications from controlled indoor conditions through to demanding marine and offshore environments.
Our Advanced Industrial Wet Paint Facility
Our new 14m wet-paint facility provides the capacity and controlled conditions required for high-specification industrial coating projects and larger components. The dedicated coating room supports consistent application of complex coating systems, including single- and multi-layer applications and quick-drying systems.
The facility is equipped for 100% volume solids, phenolic and DWI-approved coating systems, with defence-level environmental controls that help maintain the conditions required for demanding specifications. Our SprayBake booth combines spray application with oven capabilities, supported by professional Graco equipment for a range of coating requirements.
Our coatings team includes personnel trained to SSPC Train the Painter requirements and qualified to NACE I, II and III and ICorr Level 2 standards.
Specialist Wet Paint Coating Systems
We can apply a range of single- and multi-layer wet paint systems to meet various corrosion, chemical resistance and service requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our wet paint and spray painting service. Cannot see what you need? Call +44 (0)161 330 4551.
What size components can your wet paint booth handle?
Our 14m wet paint booth is designed to accommodate large industrial components, increasing our capacity for demanding coating projects. If you have a large or unusual component, provide the dimensions and our team can confirm suitability.
When should I choose wet paint over powder coating?
Wet paint is particularly suitable where complex multi-layer coating systems or a specific industry standard is required. It offers greater flexibility in coating chemistry and application, making it well-suited to demanding applications in sectors such as defence, nuclear, marine and oil and gas, where tailored corrosion protection is required.
Which wet paint standards and coating systems do you work to?
We work to customer, OEM and project-specific specifications, including NORSOK M-501 where required. Our capabilities include high-zinc, glass-flake, Novolac, phenolic and DWI-approved systems, supported by coatings personnel qualified to relevant industry standards.
Can you provide coating inspection and documentation?
Yes. Our coatings inspection expertise supports project-specific quality requirements, with inspection and documentation tailored to the coating specification and customer requirements.
What information do you need for a wet paint quote?
To supply a quote, we need details such as the component dimensions, material, quantity, required coating system and intended operating environment. Providing the relevant specification or project requirements will also help us recommend the most appropriate solution.
What spray equipment do you use?
Northpoint uses professional Graco spray equipment, including Merkur 45:1, Xtreme 60:1 and XM 2K plural-component systems. This equipment enables us to apply high-solids coatings as single- or multi-layer systems to a guaranteed life expectancy.
