We Built The Shop We Wanted To Hire
APC began with a need of our own. While operating our family-based handrail business, we saw how difficult it was to find a dependable powder coating partner that could deliver consistent quality, reliable turnaround times, and responsive service.
We built APC to meet that need, and as more fabricators, manufacturers, contractors, and industrial clients found us, it grew into a company focused on providing durable, high-quality finishing solutions for a wide range of projects.
From Handrails To A Finishing Shop
The Family Handrail Business
APC began with a need of our own. While operating our family-based handrail business, we were sending metal out for finishing like everyone else.
The Gap We Kept Hitting
We saw how difficult it was to find a dependable powder coating partner that could deliver consistent quality, reliable turnaround times, and responsive service.
We Built APC To Meet It
Rather than keep working around the problem, we built the shop we wanted to hire — prep, masking and coating controlled end to end, under one roof.
A Finishing Shop In Its Own Right
As more fabricators, manufacturers, contractors and industrial clients found us, it grew into a company focused on durable, high-quality finishing for a wide range of projects.
What We Stand For
Transparency First
Clear pricing, honest coastal expectations, and care guidance so your finish lasts. We tell you what powder coating can and cannot do beside saltwater before you book, not after.
Quality Over Shortcuts
Garnet-media prep on roughly 90% of parts, in-house masking and coating, and a 2-year workmanship warranty standing behind the result.
Capacity For Commercial & Industrial Work
We run a 100-foot automated line and a 24'L × 14'H batch oven, with capacity to add an overnight production shift — so we can take on volume and standing-schedule work alongside custom jobs.
Continuous throughput for volume and standing-schedule work.
24 feet long by 14 feet high — large architectural and industrial pieces fit.
Room to add an overnight production shift when volume calls for it.
