Who We Are

our story

Strength from Family

My father, veteran Dave Nelson, founded Tampa Bay Powder Coating on a simple principle: treat every customer right and never compromise on quality. He built this company through hard work, honesty, and a commitment to delivering a finish customers could count on. Today, I’m proud to carry on that legacy with the same dedication to craftsmanship, dependable service, and meeting every deadline. Our customers return to us because they know we’ll take care of their project as if it were our own.

“I love what I do.  I’m officially a powder coating geek with an engineering background.”
