Rust Removal &
Paint Stripping
Service — All of Florida
We don't just clean the surface — we eliminate the rust, oxidation, and failed coatings underneath it. Blasted down to bare metal, ready for a protective coating that actually lasts.
Serving Ocala, Jacksonville, Tampa, Orlando, Miami, Gainesville, Tallahassee and all of Florida.
The Problem
Rust Doesn't Stop. It Spreads.
Painting over rust is one of the most expensive mistakes in property and asset maintenance. The rust beneath the new coating continues to oxidize — lifting the paint from the inside out and returning within months, often worse than before.
The only real solution is removal. Blasting rust down to clean, bare metal gives the protective coating a proper surface to bond to — one that's free of contamination, oxidation, and the conditions that cause coatings to fail.
That's what Legacy does. We don't clean the surface — we prepare it. There's a difference, and it shows up years later when competing coatings have already failed.
"Don't Just Paint Over It."
Painting over rust, oxidation, or a failing coating doesn't fix the problem — it hides it temporarily. The surface beneath keeps deteriorating until the new coating fails too. Proper removal is the only solution that lasts.
Assess the Surface
We evaluate the depth of corrosion, coating type, substrate material, and what the surface needs to be coated with. The right prep approach depends on all of these.
Select the Right Media
Crushed glass, sand, or steel grit for heavy rust on structural steel. Soda or walnut shell for lighter corrosion on sensitive substrates. We never use a one-size approach.
Blast to Bare Metal
We remove 100% of rust, oxidation, old coatings, and contaminants — down to clean, bare metal with a proper surface profile for coating adhesion.
Ready for Coating
The surface is now prepared to the specification your protective coating requires — no rust, no contamination, no compromise.
What We Remove
Rust Removal & Stripping Services
Rust & Corrosion Removal
Remove light surface rust to deep structural corrosion from steel, iron, and metal assets. We work down to bare, clean metal — ready for primer and protective coating.
Paint Stripping
Strip single or multiple layers of paint from any surface — steel, wood, aluminum, masonry, concrete. We remove old coatings completely, not just the top layer.
Lead Paint Removal
Safe removal of lead-based paint from residential, commercial, and industrial surfaces. Proper containment and disposal protocols followed throughout.
Industrial Coating Removal
Remove epoxy, polyurethane, powder coat, primer, and specialty coatings from steel, aluminum, and composite surfaces. Full coating system removal for re-coat or re-specification.
Oxidation Removal
Strip oxidation, scale, and corrosion byproducts from aluminum, steel, copper, and other metals — restoring a clean surface profile for new coatings to bond to.
Coating Failure Remediation
When a coating has peeled, bubbled, or failed prematurely, we remove it completely and correct the surface condition that caused the failure — so the next coating system lasts.
