After a long 20 year career at Gema™, Monte McClung(Owner) started First In Finishing Inc in 2010.

 

With such a history in Gema powder coating equipment Monte started First In Finishing as a Service, Repair, and Aftermarket part supplier for Gema equipment.

 

From the very beginning First In Finishing was built on the idea of the importance of good customer support, something many large companies fail to understand. With this strong belief that customers always come first, First in Finishing became quite popular in the powder coating world as being a trusted company that truly cares about their customers.

 

In the early years of First In Finishing, selling spare parts and repairing units was the most common business. Over time with collecting units and parts, FINF started refurbishing and selling whole manual Gema systems which became more and more frequent as time moved on.

As the company grew FINF new that in order to reach and service a lot of there customers they would need to begin traveling to their customers own facilities.

​

That's why in 2018, FINF started travelling and doing field service work. With moving all over the country to even traveling into other countries First In Finishing is proud to say that they are happy to help and work anywhere in the country from Phoenix to Orlando all the way up to Pennsylvania and North Dakota they can go anywhere where their services are needed.

​

​Fast forward to 2021 First In Finishing is faced with a big company decision. Electron reached out to FINF to become an Official Electron distributor. And as anyone would be, they were hesitant to begin this new journey with a different product brand. But that didn't stop First In Finishing's curiosity. They bought a few Electron systems to begin testing and seeing if this new product thats being introduced into the America Market will ever be a real competitor.

 

 

With years of testing and building a better understanding of the potential this new product has, First in Finishing decided to partner with Electron in 2023.

Since the partnership with Electron, First In Finishing has grown significantly with hundreds of manual systems sold, to full conveyorized lines and automatic booths. First In Finishing has helped spread Electron equipment all throughout the USA.

 

All of this information brings us to the present day, First In Finishing is still striving for the best possible customer support that they can provide. While still being able to offer Gema support and parts, to full Electron units and systems. The family owned goal of treating our customers how we would want to be treated applies to all situations!
