How Do I Paint Inside Shipping Containers?

If you are concerned about the inside appearance, then an interior repaint would help - an interior repaint can instantly improve the appearance of a container without breaking the bank.

It is important to remember that the inside of shipping containers can be prone to condensation and a specialist topcoat is therefore recommended.

Before painting remove all rust, loose and flaking paint coatings back to a clean metal by grinding, scraping, steel brushing or sanding down.

We recommend our Grafotherm for topcoating (two coats). GrafoTherm is a one-component water-based anti-condensation coating for steel roofing sheets, steel structures and other metal surfaces, where condensation and dripping-water problems occur. Suitable also for mineral walls and ceilings
