A beautiful awning over any commercial property acts like a billboard to attract the eye of potential customers. The weather and elements in Waimea and nearby towns cause awnings to fade or deteriorate. Painting and repairing damage to your awning keeps your property looking sharp and sends the message that your business cares about the details.
For many commercial property owners near Waimea, awnings are a long-lasting investment. The cost of replacing an awning can be expensive. Reconsider replacing your awning as it is made of metal, aluminum, vinyl, or wood and may simply need a fresh coat of paint. For example, removing a rusty metal awning could be time consuming and damage the building's exterior leading to costly repairs. Replacing it with a simple cloth awning may not have the same charm customers have come to love about your metal awning. Repaired and repainted, your awning can look like new. Before you remove and replace your awning, call the expert at Mark Dunlap Painting LLC in Waimea. I can help you pick the right paint colors and finishes to accentuate and protect your storefront's exterior. Many commercial property owners choose faux finishes that mimic the appearance of warm natural wood or patina copper. On-brand, bright eye-popping colors can grab the attention of customers quickly. It's just good business sense to invest in your awning's appearance.

Use an oil-based paint over a premium primer. We suggest using two coats of paint. You'll want to wait until the first coat of paint is completely dry to the touch before applying the second coat of paint.
A premium primer designed for painting metal such as Rust-Oleum is the best choice for an outdoor metal awning. After gently sanding the metal surface with a 180-grit sandpaper apply the primer with a few thin coats. Allow each primer coat to dry completely before applying the next coat.
After detaching, use a wire brush to remove stubborn dirt and areas where the metal has corroded. Patch any small holes with a metal patching compound such as Alvin metal repair putty. Allow the putty to fully cure before proceeding. Once the putty is dry, lightly sand the entire surface with 180 grit sandpaper. Use a rust treatment or other metal cleaner made to treat rust to thoroughly clean the surface. Then your metal awning is ready for painting.

As the Site Manager for a luxury condominium project I have used Mark many times for both large and small projects. I was so pleased with his work, that I hired him to paint my own house. Once again, Mark's work was excellent. Great interior painter and exterior painter.

Living off island has its challenges. However, Mark Dunlap has completed two complete interior painting jobs for me. Thanks to Mark's professional help and great communication he completed the first project on time and on budget without me being on island. The second and most recent project involved another complete interior painting job for a recent investment property we acquired. Again, with just a phone with the selected paint colors Mark completed the job on time and on budget. I am very satisfied with the quality of work and will definitely recommend and use Mark again for my next project. Excellent interior painter and exterior painter.
