At Green Mountain Mobile Sandblasting and Powder Coating, we take pride in transforming metalwork into stunning, long-lasting showpieces. One of our recent projects brought us to Johnson, Vermont, where we worked with GiGi, the owner of The Little Curio Shoppe, to restore a unique spiral staircase for her new location.
Sandblasting Down to Bare Metal
The staircase had layers of old, worn paint that needed complete removal before refinishing. Using our mobile sandblasting equipment, we stripped the staircase down to bare metal, ensuring every curve and detail was clean and free from rust or debris. This thorough preparation is essential for a flawless finish and maximum coating adhesion.
Surface Repairs and Prep Work
During the restoration process, we found several spots where the staircase had previously been attached to its original setting. These areas required grinding to create a smooth, even surface. Our team made sure all imperfections were removed, so the new finish would look seamless.
A Custom Gold Sparkle Finish with 2K Clear Coat
Once the surface was prepared, we applied a rich gold base coat to bring warmth and elegance to the staircase. To make it truly stand out, we added a sparkle metallic layer, creating a shimmering effect that catches the light from every angle. Finally, we sealed the staircase with a 2K automotive-grade clear coat for durability, UV protection, and a glossy finish that will last for years.

The Little Curio Shoppe will officially open its doors in late August to early September 2025. If you love antiques, oddities, and unique finds, this is a local business you won’t want to miss.
