Your one-stop shop for abrasive blasting, and machinery, truck and car painting services in New Plymouth
Steven Sole Customs and Taranaki Blast & Paint provides professional abrasive blasting and painting services for commercial, industrial and automotive customers throughout New Plymouth and the wider Taranaki region. From cars and truck cabs and chassis through to heavy machinery and industrial components, we complete projects of all sizes from our Bell Block workshop. We handle vehicle insurance work, and can also carry out fibreglass repairs.
Established in 2006, the business began as a specialist automotive paint shop before expanding to meet the growing demand for commercial and industrial work. The addition of a purpose-built abrasive blasting bay has created a complete service, allowing customers to have blasting and painting completed in one place.
Today, Steven and Michelle Sole lead a small, experienced team with the facilities to handle everything from passenger vehicles to large commercial trucks and industrial equipment. Every project is approached with the same commitment to quality workmanship, reliable service and finishes built to last.
