Mac Grove Painting completed a detailed commercial exterior painting project at a professional office building in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, restoring the structure’s bold blue facade to a clean, polished appearance. The scope of work included repainting the large metal front facade, the continuous blue accent strip wrapping around the building’s standing concrete panels, and several lower sections where water staining from the sprinkler system had taken a visible toll on the building’s curb appeal. The result is a sharp, professional exterior that makes a strong first impression for tenants and visitors alike.
The metal front facade presented unique preparation challenges that required careful attention to detail. The crew treated the surface to remove old, caulked paint buildup before applying DTM (Direct-to-Metal) paint — a durable, commercial-grade coating engineered to bond to metal surfaces and stand up to Minnesota’s demanding climate. Each letter of the building’s signage was individually masked off to ensure clean, crisp edges throughout the paint application, protecting the signage while delivering a seamless finish across the facade.
For the raised concrete panel strip encircling the building, Mac Grove Painting applied Loxon XP, a premium exterior masonry coating known for its exceptional adhesion and weather resistance — an ideal solution for the standing concrete panels that frame this commercial property. From surface preparation to final coat, this White Bear Lake commercial painting project reflects Mac Grove Painting’s commitment to using the right materials for every substrate, solving real-world challenges, and delivering lasting, high-quality results for commercial clients across the Twin Cities metro area.
