Discover Smith Paint Products

Smith Paint Products specializes in decorative concrete coatings, industrial coatings, and specialized paint products, but that only scratches the surface of what makes this company so unique and why we are proud to sell their products. Founded in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in 1929, they started as a paint manufacturing company supplying the region with high-quality coatings and paints, but as they grew to national prominence, they began streamlining their offerings. Today, they are dedicated to providing more niche products and better customer service, rather than seeing how large of a market they can cover.

We got the opportunity to sit down with part of the team at Smith Paint Products. Check out the video below to learn about this leading company.

The Key to Successful Coating Application

At Smith Paint Products, they know that while a high-quality paint made with top-notch raw materials is key to a successful outcome, it’s only part of the equation. The other part is ensuring the surface is properly prepared to receive a coating. Just one variable that isn’t factored in can lead to an unattractive end result that is peeling, bubbled, or separating from the substrate in a short period of time.

Variables to consider before applying a coating from Smith Paint Products include:

• Current conditions of the substrate;
• How hard the concrete is;
• Whether you have access to power so you can properly prepare the substrate;
• Whether you have an eco-friendly area to prepare and dispose of coatings;

Failure to use the right surface preparation equipment or prepare the substrate can lead to a failure for the coating to bond, adhere, or stand up to traffic and use.
