project results: protection where it counts

  • 01

    RESTORED FINISH & GLOSS

    Revived a faded Genie boom lift to a high-gloss, rental-ready appearance.

  • 02

    UV & FADE RESISTANCE

    Added a durable barrier that resists long-term sun exposure and color degradation.

  • 03

    Corrosion Protection

    Sealed exposed metal and edges to reduce oxidation, rust, and weather damage.

  • 04

    Lower FUTURE Maintenance Costs

    Extends repaint intervals to lower maintenance costs and keep the lift in service longer.

REDUCING REPAINTS, RAISING UTILIZATION

DATA-BACKED SAVINGS FOR RENTAL FLEETS

Professional repainting of heavy equipment commonly ranges from about $1,000 to $10,000 per machine (often quoted $10–$25 per sq ft, depending on size, prep, and coating system). Avoiding even one full repaint on a mid-size boom lift can reasonably save ~$4,000–$6,000 in direct paint/refinish costs for this class of equipment. Repaints also remove units from service for multiple days while coatings dry and cure; epoxy systems often require at least 8–24 hours to dry to the touch and additional time to reach handling/full cure, contributing to multi-day downtime.

With published daily rental rates for articulating boom lifts commonly in the $250–$1,459/day range, every 2–3 days of repaint downtime can add ~$500–$4,377 in lost revenue.

Skipping one repaint cycle via InduroPro can deliver ~$4,500–$10,000+ in avoided costs and preserved rental income for a single lift—before considering the benefits of higher fleet availability and a consistently professional appearance.

FROM FADED TO FLEET READY

RESTORING RENTAL EQUIPMENT WITH LASTING PROTECTION

The Genie boom lift’s exterior was coated with InduroPro, restoring color depth and gloss in one application.

This treatment not only revived appearance but also formed a UV- and corrosion-resistant shield. By sealing vulnerable surfaces, InduroPro prevents fading, oxidation, and costly repaints, keeping the lift rental-ready for longer.

PROTECTION WHERE WEAR STARTS

PLATFORM RAILS TO TELESCOPING SECTIONS

Rental machines see heavy, repetitive use across jobsites, weather, and operators. For this Genie boom lift, InduroPro was applied beyond the main body—onto platform rails, control covers, access panels, jib and telescoping sections, and around fasteners and edge transitions where abrasion and corrosion often begin.

The ceramicized epoxy of InduroPro bonds tightly, creating a slick, high-gloss surface that resists UV, moisture, and residue buildup. Unlike repaint-only refreshes that fade under sun and washdowns, this coating reinforces high-touch areas, simplifies cleanup, and helps maintain a professional fleet look that customers notice.

BUILT FOR HIGH UTILIZATION

PROTECT YOUR FLEET INVESTMENT

From the largest boom sections to the smallest control covers, this project highlights how InduroPro delivers value across every surface of a rental machine. The Genie lift is constantly exposed to harsh outdoor conditions—UV rays, rain, dust, and frequent operator handling—that normally accelerate fading, oxidation, and surface wear. With InduroPro, each of those problem areas is now sealed under a ceramicized epoxy barrier that resists corrosion and maintains a durable, high-gloss finish.

By eliminating one or more repaint cycles over the life of the lift, United Rentals reduces both maintenance spending and downtime, ensuring more days in service and fewer interruptions to revenue flow. For fleet managers, the benefits go beyond appearance—it’s about maximizing uptime, lowering lifetime operating costs, and extending the useful service life of every machine in the lineup. InduroPro is not just cosmetic protection; it’s a strategic investment in keeping rental equipment working harder, longer, and smarter for the bottom line.
