Industrial Painting, Blasting & Corrosion Protection
Marine Coating Systems, Grit Blasting, Anti-Corrosion & Structural Surface Treatment
Marine steel corrodes fast — particularly in the harsh salt-air environment of the Red Sea and Gulf. Left unchecked, corrosion shortens asset life, compromises structural integrity, and generates repair costs that dwarf the price of a proper coating program. Sealion's industrial painting and blasting division provides professional surface preparation and marine coating services for vessels, port structures, offshore platforms, and industrial facilities across the region. We use certified sand blasting, steel grit blasting, and high-pressure water blasting techniques to prepare surfaces to the required Sa standard before applying approved marine paint systems from leading manufacturers. Our teams work afloat, at berth, or on shore facilities with full safety compliance and environmental controls.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our industrial painting, blasting & corrosion protection — if you need further information please contact our operations team directly.
We work to ISO 8501-1 surface preparation standards including Sa 2, Sa 2.5, and Sa 3 as specified by the paint manufacturer or vessel owner. All blasting operations are supervised by qualified personnel and documented with surface profile measurements and cleanliness assessments.
We apply coating systems from all major marine paint manufacturers including Jotun, Hempel, International, and Sherwin-Williams. We also supply and apply Drew Marine chemical programs including Magnacote rust preventive coating, Hatch Seal Tape, and Motorgard for diesel engine protection.
Yes. We carry out afloat painting on topsides, decks, superstructures, and boot topping areas while the vessel is alongside. Underwater hull painting requires dry docking, but all above-waterline work can be completed during a normal port call without disrupting cargo operations.
