Silos And Storage Units Painting
Having proper storage is important for businesses and homeowners alike. Humans are bound to collect things and pass down sentimental pieces from generation to generation. Silos and storage units are just a few of the ways we store personal belongings, food, and clothing.
Silos can benefit from paint not only to protect them from corrosion but also to be a beacon and a fun landmark in a local community. Silos hold multiple kinds of grain, liquid, and other necessities needed for a community to thrive. Keeping these metal giants up to date is crucial to the safety and longevity of agriculture.
Protecting Your Storage Spaces
Choosing the right type of paint can protect the exterior of your storage unit from extreme weather conditions, mold growth, and corrosion. Brush Brothers Industrial offers durable paint finishes in many colors to help improve not only the durability of your storage facility, but the aesthetics, too.
A painted metal storage unit may not seem like a good investment, but paint can be another important layer of protection against pests, UV light, and moisture. It is a delicate balancing act for a storage facility manager to balance all of the repairs, tasks, and rentals that come with the business. Matte finishes on paint can help reduce reflection from the sun, keeping the unit’s color and improving energy efficiency. Having storage units painted is a way to save time and money on repairs and damage to renters’ property.
Helping Storage Facilities Achieve Cohesion
Storage units can achieve a more cohesive look when they are painted a similar color or have a design that matches the company’s branding. Our professionals can help you paint an overall paint color and paint storage doors a bright, bold color.

Types Of Paint Used For Silos And Storage Units
Choosing an industrial paint will stop it from peeling or chipping over the years, exposed to the elements. Silos and storage units can benefit from paint or long-term coatings, especially in places with dust storms, wind, hail, snow, and other natural disasters. Here are some options for durable paint or coatings that can transform your silo or storage unit.
Epoxy is a popular coating option for garage flooring, walls, equipment, and other industrial spaces because of its UV resistance benefits and durability. Using this on silos or storage units is a great protective option if they are exposed to sunlight every day.
An ester-based polymer resin, known as Alkyd, provides a flexible and quick-drying coating that helps silos and storage units avoid chipping from natural wear and tear. Alkyd can be added to paints or stains to provide additional protection while still adhering to a variety of materials. They are also water-resistant, which makes them great for outdoor storage units and storage silos that are exposed to every type of weather imaginable.
Acrylic coatings can also be used for metal surfaces to protect them from UV damage, corrosion, and bacterial growth. They are often used for decorative and industrial purposes in multiple industries. Your silos and storage units can benefit from acrylic paint or a coating to help you maintain an aesthetic appearance. Acrylic coatings can be used on exterior and interior surfaces to extend the benefits beyond what is seen by the public.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can You Paint The Interior Walls Of A Storage Unit?
Yes, you can apply paint or a coating to interior walls; however, you need to ensure that you use a low-VOC paint and have proper ventilation. Painting an enclosed space needs to be done with precision and proper ventilation to ensure drying and limit prolonged exposure to toxic fumes. Paint will improve the unit’s appearance, limit scratches from furniture or objects inside the unit, and protect the interior walls from mold and mildew.
-
How Are Silos Prepared For Painting?
Proper surface preparation is crucial for large metal containers of any type. Silos need to be thoroughly cleaned, usually using a pressure washer, to remove all contaminants. They will also need to have a mechanical abrasion service, like sandblasting or wire brushing, to remove any signs of corrosion or old paint. Next, professionals will need to repair any structural issues or small holes that could compromise the integrity of the silo. The final step is to apply a primer and topcoat in order to provide the paint with the perfect base to adhere to. Paint will then be applied after the primer is completely dry.
