Roller Shutter Spray Painting & Repairs Coventry

An industrial unit in Coventry had six large roller shutter doors painted plain grey for years. The warehouse owners wanted a brighter, more welcoming look that also helped their building stand out on the estate.

2. Client Brief

• Scope: Spray paint all six existing steel roller shutter doors only.

• Colour: Change from grey to a vibrant sunshine yellow.

• Finish: Durable, weather-resistant paint able to withstand heavy use.

• Timeline: Complete the work one weekend to avoid interrupting daily operations.

3. Our Experience

With over 25 years ’ experience in industrial painting across the West Midlands, our team has refurbished more than 950 shutter doors. We specialise in fast, clean spray-painting services that meet both safety and quality standards.

4. Preparation

1. Site Protection

   • Covered concrete floors and nearby walls with heavy-duty drop sheets.

   • Masked off brick pillars and window frames to prevent overspray.

2. Surface Preparation

   • Cleaned each roller door with a degreasing agent to remove oil and dirt.

   • Lightly sanded all surfaces to help the new paint stick.

   • Applied a zinc-rich primer to resist rust and improve adhesion.

5. Spray-Painting Process

• Day 1 (Primer Coat)

  • Sprayed one even coat of grey primer over each shutter.

  • Allowed 4 hours drying time between coats.

• Day 2 (Yellow Finish Coats)

  • Applied two coats of high-build, water-based yellow topcoat using airless spray guns.

  • Maintained consistent gun pressure and distance for a smooth, streak-free finish.

  • Checked for any thin spots or drips and touched up as needed.

  • Removed masking tape and drop sheets.

  • Conducted a safety inspection to ensure doors still operated perfectly.

6. Results & Feedback

• The bright yellow shutters now create a striking, modern look against the red-brick walls.

• The owners reported that visitors immediately noticed the fresh colour and felt the site looked more professional.

• The spray paint finish proved easy to clean and has so far resisted peeling and rust after several weeks of use.
