John Roth is the Vice President of SurfacePrep’s West Region where he focuses on leading and growing sales, ensuring efficient business operations and working with customers to develop and create solutions that help them improve their surface enhancement processes or decrease their total costs.

His experience with the company goes back 23 years when he joined the SurfacePrep family as an outside sales representative with Southwest Abrasives. He has since held increasingly responsible sales managements positions until he was promoted into his current role of General Manager.

Prior to entering the surface abrasives and ceramics industry, John owned Water Tek, a direct sales business in Fort Worth, Texas, for 13 years and R & R Refining, a business in the gold and silver industry.
