Reduces downtime and maintenance costs by protecting high-wear areas.
BREAKING THE COSTLY REPAINT
ONE APPLICATION. YEARS OF ADDED PROTECTION
Before InduroPro, this concrete truck needed a full repaint every three years—costing the owner around $7,500 USD each time. Those repaint cycles weren’t just expensive; they also meant downtime and lost productivity.
InduroPro changes that. With its durable ceramicized epoxy barrier, the coating adds at least one extra protection cycle beyond what paint alone can provide. It resists rust, corrosion, and surface wear that typically force repainting, keeping the truck looking sharp and ready for the job.
That means more years of service before repainting, lower lifetime maintenance costs, and a stronger return on investment.
COVERAGE YOU CAN SEE
FULL PROTECTION, FROM DRUM TO DRIVE
The cement mixer’s entire rotating drum and connected components were coated with InduroPro.
This application ensures resistance against cement dust, moisture, and abrasion from daily operation. By sealing vulnerable points, we reduced the chance of corrosion and paint degradation over time.
EVERY DETAIL, FULLY PROTECTED
COMPLETE COVERAGE FROM WHEELS TO HOSE FITTINGS
This concrete truck required more than just surface coating on the main body—it needed protection where the wear happens fastest. We applied InduroPro to every heavy-use detail, from the wheels and rims to the hose fittings and metal connectors. Extra material was added to pitted areas of the wheel covers and drum to reinforce them over time, which regular paint can’t do.
These areas are constantly exposed to abrasion, moisture, and corrosive cement residue, making them prime candidates for early rust and degradation.
By sealing them with InduroPro’s ceramicized epoxy formula, we created a resilient, high-gloss barrier that resists corrosion and makes cleanup easier after every job. The result is a truck protected from top to bottom, with critical components reinforced for long-term performance on demanding construction sites.
FULL COVERAGE APPLICATION
PROTECTING A CONCRETE MIXER FROM CORROSION AND IMPACT DAMAGE
Concrete mixers operate in one of the harshest environments in the construction industry. Constant exposure to wet concrete, calcium chloride, aggregate abrasion, and moisture creates conditions that destroy standard paint in months — not years. This 8-year-old cement truck in Mobile, Alabama had already developed significant pitting across its substrate, with corrosion spreading through the mixer body, wheels, and rims.
The Boatler applied InduroPro ceramicized epoxy coating across the full cement mixer body, including wheels, rims, and all reinforced pitted areas. Using 6 × 17 oz kits, the team coated every exposed surface — sealing the heavily pitted substrate and creating a hard-shell barrier against future concrete contact, chemical exposure, and moisture intrusion.
Unlike traditional repainting, InduroPro bonds directly to the existing surface without requiring a full strip-down or primer coat. For a machine this age and condition, that's critical — the pitted areas were reinforced and sealed rather than simply covered with paint that would chip and flake within weeks of returning to service.
The result: a working concrete mixer with restored surface protection across its entire body. The ceramicized epoxy barrier now stands between the metal substrate and the corrosive concrete, chemicals, and moisture that caused the original damage. For operators running concrete equipment in demanding conditions, InduroPro offers a protective coating solution that outlasts standard paint and reduces the frequency of costly full-body repaints that pull equipment out of service.
From the massive concrete drum to the smallest hose fittings, this project shows the value of complete InduroPro coverage for heavy-use construction equipment. Every inch of this cement truck—whether exposed to abrasive cement dust, high moisture, or constant vibration—now has a barrier built to resist rust, corrosion, fading, and surface wear.
By investing in advanced ceramicized epoxy protection, operators reduce the time and cost of repainting, extend the service life of vital components, and maintain a professional appearance that reflects the quality of their work. For fleets, that translates into fewer interruptions, more days on the job, and stronger resale value down the road. InduroPro isn’t just about protection—it’s about keeping your equipment working harder, longer, and smarter for your bottom line.
