It's Time to Restore

Written by Kimball Midwest | March 10, 2022
Equipment works hard for us. In doing so, paint chips, peels and fades, and rust can take over. If this is a problem you’re seeing on your equipment, it’s time for restoration.
 
However, it can be hard to find an exact color match of your manufacturer’s equipment. That is why Kimball Midwest provides more than 60 color matches to choose from, making it less of a headache to start your renovation projects.
 
All great paint restoration projects start by stripping the old finish, priming the base and applying a topcoat for a brand-new look.

The industrial strength Paint K.O. 2 Gel strips old paint, setting up the surface to be primed and painted. The powerful stripping formula is easy to apply and removes layers of paint, carbon deposits and any powder coating from materials such as metal, wood or masonry.

 
With old paint out of the way and the area washed with warm soapy water, it’s time to prime. Our Rust Master™ Plus primer is a perfect option for converting rust and preventing future problems. This simple one-step primer sets you up for success when restoring vehicles and equipment.


After the primer has been applied, in just 24 hours it’s time to paint! Ultra Pro∙Max paint will get your vehicle and equipment looking like it just rolled off the lot on day one, regardless of its current wear or condition. The high-performance paint has extremely high solids, giving you a super-tough, long-lasting finish.
