What are Prime & Paint Services?

Prime and paint services involve the application of specialized primer and topcoat coating systems designed to protect metal components and meet aerospace and industrial specifications. Primers promote strong adhesion and provide corrosion resistance, while paint topcoats deliver durable environmental protection and required finishes.


At Aero-Chrome, prime and paint services are performed as part of an integrated finishing process, often following machining, grinding, inspection, or stress relief. Our coatings are applied with careful control to ensure protection without compromising part dimensions or performance.


With over 40 years of experience and NADCAP & FAA/EASA-approved operations, Aero-Chrome delivers reliable, specification-compliant prime and paint solutions for demanding applications.
