Reardon Painting recently partnered with KIA to deliver a complete commercial painting solution for their new Bloomington dealership. From initial industrial prep to final showroom touches, our expert team transformed the entire facility inside and out — on time, on brand, and built to last.

Part One: Interior Prep – Building the Foundation

Our crew kicked off the project by preparing the interior. We protected the concrete floors with durable sheeting and accessed high ceilings, ductwork, and structural steel with scissor lifts. Every inch was cleaned, primed, and painted to industrial standards.

We also refreshed bare concrete walls with a clean, consistent finish — carefully working around conduit and fixtures. This stage laid the visual and functional groundwork for everything that followed.

Part Two: Exterior Coating – Curb Appeal That Lasts

Next, we turned our attention outside. Using boom lifts, our team applied a durable, industrial-grade exterior coating that not only protects but elevates the concrete façade. The new look aligns perfectly with KIA’s sleek brand identity.

Even with active construction underway, our crew worked efficiently and safely to deliver a flawless exterior finish. The end result? Bold, modern, and built for long-term performance.

Part Three: Showroom Finish – Designed to Impress

Inside the showroom, we focused on premium details. Metallic finishes on accent walls and upper architectural elements added visual impact, while modern neutral tones created a welcoming, high-end feel.

From reception walls to mezzanine railings, our painters executed each detail with precision — helping elevate the space into a polished, customer-ready experience.
