Burn-Off Stripping Service in Boise, ID

Coating burn-off is a thermal stripping process used to safely remove cured coatings such as powder coating, paint, grease, oil and varnish from metal parts, hooks, racks and fixtures. At Coatings Plus, we use a specialized batch burn-off oven that heats parts to approximately 800°F, reducing organic coatings to a fine ash while an afterburner system treats the exhaust gases for a cleaner process. This prepares parts for refinishing or reuse without aggressive mechanical stripping.

Our coating burn-off service is ideal for metal hooks, racks, fixtures, automotive components, fabricated metal parts and industrial equipment that need old coatings removed before refinishing. Coatings Plus can process parts up to 72" x 72" x 144", making our oven suitable for both small and large industrial projects. If you're unsure whether your parts will fit, our team can evaluate your project and recommend the best solution. 

Coating burn-off removes coatings evenly from complex shapes, corners and hard-to-reach areas without excessive grinding or abrasive wear. This helps preserve the integrity of the underlying metal while reducing labor and preparing the surface for additional services such as media blasting or powder coating. At Coatings Plus, our burn-off process is an efficient way to restore parts for reuse and refinishing.

Most cured hydrocarbon-based coatings—including paint, powder coating, grease, oil and varnish—can be effectively removed through our burn-off process. However, halogen-containing materials cannot be thermally destroyed and are excluded from this service. If you're uncertain about the coating on your parts, Coatings Plus can inspect them and recommend the safest and most effective removal method.

Once the coatings have been reduced to ash and removed, the parts are clean and ready for additional surface preparation or refinishing. Many customers choose to follow coating burn-off with media blasting and powder coating to achieve a durable, corrosion-resistant finish. By offering coating removal, surface preparation and finishing under one roof, Coatings Plus provides an efficient, streamlined process for residential, commercial and industrial customers throughout Boise and the surrounding communities.
