We don’t just make chemicals — we engineer solutions that save our customers thousands of dollars in repair costs, equipment replacement, and depreciation every single year.

Built on Quality, Driven by Results

Four principles have guided Custom Chemicals & Coatings for decades — and they’re baked into every bottle of Salts Gone® we ship.

American Manufacturing

Our Houston facility is vertically integrated, so we control every step from raw material to finished product. That means consistent quality and rapid response to customer needs.

Environmental Responsibility

Originally formulated for sensitive industrial paint prep, Salts Gone® is 100% non-hazardous, biodegradable, and pH-neutral — safe for your vehicle, your family, and the environment.

Government-Approved Quality

As a registered government vendor, we’ve earned the trust of organizations where failure isn’t an option — including NASA, the State of Texas, and major oil & gas operators.

Customer-First Culture

Every customer — from a weekend boater to a fleet manager — gets the same direct access to our team. No call centers, no runaround, just real help from real people.

Countless Possibilities

From boats and vehicles to aircraft and coastal homes — Salts Gone® protects everything salt touches.
