Sand Blasting and Powder Coating Serving Cuba City

Lanez Custom Steel has provided professional sand blasting and powder coating services since 2019, supporting metal restoration and finishing work across agriculture, construction, transportation, and residential use. Sand blasting, more accurately referred to as media blasting, is the foundation of every durable metal finish. It removes corrosion, mill scale, and failed coatings so parts can be properly restored and protected.

Work from Cuba City often comes in with variable conditions, including surface rust, failed paint, and heavy wear. Our process begins with controlled media blasting to establish a clean, consistent surface profile. Once prep is complete, powder coating is applied and cured to create a protective finish designed to hold up under repeated use and exposure.

Why Manufacturers and Homeowners Choose Lanez Custom Steel

Controlled blasting & coating under one roof

Surface preparation, masking, coating, and curing are managed in-house. This allows blasting profiles and coating builds to be matched correctly, which is critical for long-term performance.

Experience with worn and uneven material

Many parts come through the shop showing wear from previous use, such as rust, old paint, or uneven surfaces. Our team adjusts blasting settings to clean each piece effectively without damaging the metal underneath before coating.

Documented prep standards

Each job follows a checklist that tracks blast media type, surface profile, coating thickness, and cure time. This ensures consistent results when customers return with similar parts or repeat jobs.

Low-VOC finishing process

Powder coating produces minimal waste and very low emissions compared to traditional paint systems.

Our Story

Built on Proper Surface Preparation

Lanez Custom Steel opened in 2019 to address a growing need for dependable sand blasting and metal finishing services. From the start, we focused on preparation quality first, knowing that coatings only perform as well as the surface beneath them. As demand grew, we expanded equipment, added trained staff, and refined blasting processes to support customers across the Tri-State region, including those from Cuba City.

Today, we work on parts used in agriculture, construction, automotive, light manufacturing, and residential restoration. Customers from the Cuba City area often bring in components that require heavy prep before they can be reused or refinished.

Our approach emphasizes process control, clear communication, and realistic expectations. Each project is evaluated individually so blasting and coating methods match the intended use of the part.

Thank you for trusting Lanez Custom Steel with your metal finishing work.

Surface Preparation and Protective Finishes

Lanez Custom Steel provides professional sand blasting supported by powder coating when long-term protection is required. Customers in and around Cuba City rely on our shop for accurate preparation, durable results, and predictable turnaround times.

Blasting removes failure points before coating begins, which helps extend service life and reduce premature wear.

  • Rust, scale, and old coatings are removed using controlled pressure and appropriate media for the part material.

  • Severely deteriorated components are blasted, primed, and coated to restore function and appearance.

  • Newly fabricated parts are blasted to establish a proper profile before receiving protective finishes.

  • Zinc-rich primers, color coats, and clears are applied when environmental exposure demands added protection.

  • One-off parts and limited quantities receive the same prep standards as production work.

After curing, coated parts undergo adhesion and visual checks. Documentation ensures repeat work from Cuba City customers matches prior specifications.
