Summary for carc painting shop Discussion
CARC painting shop is the core need in this thread: multiple manufacturers ask where to find a shop that can prime and apply CARC coatings for government work, often in black and at production volumes. The RFQs cite specs such as TT-C-490, MIL-P-S2192, MIL-P-53030, MIL-P-53032, and MIL-DTL-53039, with one request outlining a typical process of pre-wash, water-break testing, near-white blast cleaning, masking/plugging, prime, and final coat. Jim Beebe specifically asks for suppliers within 250 miles of Charlotte, North Carolina and notes ISO 9000 plus CARC certification or compliance as facility requirements. Other posters seek high-volume CARC painters in the CT-NY-NJ area and for 110-pound parts needing primer and CARC coating. The thread is mainly a set of RFQs; the editor notes they are outdated and asks for technical replies only, with no public commercial suggestions.
