The McLean Protective Coatings Logo

If you are looking for reliable coating services in and around Northern Ireland get in touch with McLean Protective Coatings. Our experienced professionals will help you choose the right kind of coatings for your needs. 

Modern protective coatings can achieve performances previously only dreamt of, extending the time to first maintenance and offering exceptional life spans, even in the most challenging environments.

To maximise the performance of any coating, McLean Protective Coatings believe that it is vital that the recommendations of the manufacturer and the conditions of the specification are carefully followed.

As such, we are proud to employ an in-house Institute of Corrosion accredited Level 3 painting inspector, who is available on all jobs. Our inspector carefully monitors all aspects of surface preparation and the application of the coating, and regularly checks: 

climatic conditions

surface cleanliness and profile

coating thickness

compliance with specification

Here's some examples of our work

Professional Inspector

Our inspector works to the terms set out in various standards, such as ISO 8501, ISO 8502, ISO 12944 and ISO 2063, amongst others.

But we don’t stop there. We don’t just apply the coating, we seek to know and understand the coating. With a combination of 35 years unrivalled first-hand experience, we know our coatings, from single pack primers to polyamine cured 2 pack epoxy coatings to inorganic zinc rich primers.

With a constantly developing technical knowledge, McLean Protective Coatings understands why these tests and observations are so important. We don’t simply follow, we are in a position to lead.

However, the coating is only half the story - protective coatings are designed to mitigate the damage caused by corrosion. We believe that a sound understanding of the corrosion process and its various forms are vital in preventing further corrosion. That is why one of our top priorities is to establish the cause of the corrosion. By seeking to treat the cause and not just the symptoms, we aim to work for our client’s interest, providing lasting and economical solutions.
