OUR STORY

Quality Metal Finishing has been family owned and operated since 1964. From day one we have been servicing the Department of Defense and local machine shops. Like many small businesses that are family owned, the owners have been hands on since the inception and have put their blood sweat and tears into the company. We started with 3 guys phosphating and painting XM 650 projectile shells in a shop the size of a garage. The owner (Rich Longo) had a double mortgage on his house and his wife was working the nightshift to keep the lights on when the business finally took off in the mid 80's. Mark Leonardis took over from Rich, his father-in-law, a few years after that and our footprint in the same building has since grown from 1,000 sf to 40,000 sf.

As manufacturing in the US continues to change and the headwinds of globalization and technological advances continue to affect local machine shops, we help you turn those headwinds into tailwinds. We make sure that the best and newest technologically advanced coatings that are on the market are being deposited onto your parts.

OUR TEAM

Our people are that ones who give us the upper hand over our competition. They practice what we preach. Our philosophy's roots originated in customer service.
