Grand Prairie sits in the middle of the aerospace and defense corridor, and the work that comes out of it arrives with specifications attached. CARC, MIL-spec primers and topcoats, dry film lubricant, first article documentation — that is ordinary production here, not a special request. We are AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 registered, ITAR registered and DFARS compliant.
Request a Quote(972) 475-2726CARC systems to MIL-DTL-53039 and MIL-DTL-64159 over MIL-DTL-53022 or 53030 primer, applied per MIL-DTL-53072, with near-infrared reflectance and batch validation handled as the specification requires rather than waived.
MIL-PRF-23377 and MIL-PRF-85582 epoxy primers under MIL-PRF-85285 polyurethane topcoat, held at aerospace film builds. AS9102 first article inspection supported, with coupons processed alongside the production load.
MIL-PRF-46010 heat-cured and MIL-PRF-46147 air-cured solid film lubricants at 0.3 to 0.5 mil — thin enough that close-fit features survive it.
ITAR-controlled drawings and specifications handled under access control. Identify the control status in writing at the time of order; we will not infer it from the drawing.
About 35 miles southwest — roughly 45 minutes across the metro.
Most defense work in this corridor moves by freight with paperwork attached, and that is the right way to handle it. If controlled technical data travels with the parts, tell us in advance. Standard turnaround is three weeks from receipt of complete material and a complete purchase order — and where a first article is required, lead time runs from receipt of a complete drawing package, not from receipt of material.
The aerospace quality standard, third-party registered and audited on a surveillance cycle — not a claim, a certificate you can download.
Controlled technical data handled under access control, so a defense prime can release work without a flow-down exception.
Three processes under one roof, so the recommendation is driven by your part rather than by the only line we own.
Gleco Paint & Powder is the coatings division of Gleco Plating — one purchase order, one traceability chain, one certificate of conformance.
We are AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 registered, ITAR registered with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, and DFARS compliant. Individual programs often carry their own approved-processor requirements — we work through those directly with sample panels, first article and source inspection rather than asking you to accept an equivalency.
Chemical Agent Resistant Coating — a polyurethane topcoat system for military ground equipment that survives chemical decontamination and controls near-infrared reflectance so vehicles do not stand out under night vision. If your print calls out MIL-DTL-53039 or MIL-DTL-64159, you need it. If it does not, you almost certainly do not.
Yes — AS9102 first article inspection and PPAP-level documentation packages, including test coupons processed with the production load where the specification requires them. Identify it on the purchase order at the time of order, because it is a quoted activity and it sets the lead time.
Yes, under access control. Technical data covered by the U.S. Munitions List is not shared outside authorized personnel. We do not publish our registrant code; it goes directly to customers who require it for their records.
Send the drawing and the specification. Most of what we run got added because a customer needed it. If it is outside what we can qualify, we will tell you that plainly rather than run it and hope.
Five questions about substrate, heat limit, service environment and priority, and you get a recommended finish plus the specification language for your drawing.
Eighteen things worth knowing before your part reaches a coating line — film build and dimensions, cure temperature and temper, masking, prep.
Wet paint, powder and Cerakote side by side, including an honest note on when each one is the wrong answer.
Send the drawing, the specification and the service environment. We will tell you what we would run and why — including when the answer is something we do not do.
