Protective Coatings

Rock Guard Coating

Tough protection for tough conditions. Rock guard coatings shield equipment, vehicles, and surfaces from impact, abrasion, and environmental damage.

Protection Against Impact & Abrasion

Operating equipment on Peace Region roads and work sites means constant exposure to rocks, gravel, and debris. Rock guard coatings create a durable barrier that absorbs impacts and resists abrasion, extending the life of equipment and reducing maintenance costs.

These polyurethane-based coatings bond directly to metal surfaces, creating a tough, flexible layer that won't crack or peel under stress. They're designed for the harsh conditions of resource extraction, construction, and heavy transportation.

Applications

  • Heavy Equipment: Excavators, loaders, dozers, and other machinery.
  • Truck Bodies: Bed liners, rocker panels, fenders, and undercarriage.
  • Trailers: Flatbeds, dumps, and lowboys.
  • Tanks & Vessels: Protecting containment equipment.
  • Industrial Floors: High-traffic areas requiring impact resistance.
  • Secondary Containment: Berms and containment areas.

Benefits

  • Impact Resistance: Absorbs rock strikes and debris impacts.
  • Abrasion Resistance: Withstands constant wear from sliding materials.
  • Corrosion Protection: Seals metal from moisture and chemicals.
  • Sound Deadening: Reduces noise from impacts.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resists fuels, oils, and common industrial chemicals.
  • UV Stability: Maintains appearance in outdoor exposure.

The Process

Proper application is critical for coating performance:

  1. Surface Preparation: Cleaning, degreasing, and abrading the surface for proper adhesion.
  2. Priming: Applying primer where required for specific substrates.
  3. Application: Spraying coating to specified thickness.
  4. Curing: Allowing proper cure time before return to service.

Common Uses in Peace Region

We frequently apply rock guard coatings for:

  • Oil and gas service vehicles operating on lease roads
  • Gravel trucks and heavy haulers
  • Logging equipment
  • Agricultural machinery
  • Construction equipment

If your equipment takes a beating, rock guard coating is an investment that pays for itself in reduced repair costs and extended equipment life.
