Alan Cadena

Welcome to Coatings College

My name is Alan Cadena, and I was born in Mexico City. At 28 years old, I currently live in Arlington, Texas, a place I've called home for the past 21 years. My journey into the construction world started early, and over the years, it's shaped who I am today.

I attended UTA University, but it was in the real world, working with my family, that I really learned what I needed to know. I've worked in construction for about 12 years now — my experience spans across a wide range of trades including painting, texturing, floor installation, carpentry, electrical work, and much more.

I also spent about two years working with one of my uncles in his painting and epoxy business, where I learned the ins and outs of the epoxy trade and gained more specialized skills. In January of 2022, I made the decision to take the leap and start my own epoxy business. I began by offering flake floors, then expanded into metallic finishes, grind and seals, and polishing.

In 2023, I discovered Bulletproof Resins — an epoxy brand that has truly exceeded my expectations in terms of both the quality of their materials and their outstanding customer service. I was so impressed with their products that I'm now proud to be a part of their team.
