Our Custom Metal Finishing Capabilities

Polishing: Enhancing Surface Quality

Polishing removes imperfections and refines metal surfaces for functional and decorative purposes. It is ideal for industries that demand precise finishes, such as medical, food processing, and architectural applications.

• Mirror & Satin Finishes – These create high-gloss or brushed metal surfaces.
• Sanitary-Grade Processing – Meets strict hygiene standards for regulated industries.
• Pre-Coating Preparation – Ensures smooth adhesion for additional treatments.

Plating: Strength & Corrosion Resistance

Plating adds a protective metal layer to increase wear resistance, conductivity, and durability. This method is commonly used in electronics, automotive, and aerospace applications.

• Electroplating & Electroless Plating – Provides even coverage for improved durability.
• Corrosion Protection – Extends the lifespan of components in harsh environments.
• Functional Coatings – Offers gold, nickel, and zinc plating for conductivity or abrasion resistance.

Wet Paint: Customizable Protective Coatings

Wet painting applies precision-controlled layers for both protective and decorative finishes. Ideal for intricate parts, structural coatings, and color customization.

• Even & Smooth Application – Ensures flawless surface coverage.
• Weather & Chemical Resistance – Guards against UV exposure, humidity, and industrial solvents.
• Custom Colors & Textures – This delivers tailored aesthetics for any application.

Powder Coating: Durable, Long-Lasting Protection

Powder coating creates a hard, wear-resistant finish that excels in industrial, structural, and transportation applications.

• Scratch & Impact Resistance – Outperforms traditional liquid coatings.
• Eco-Friendly & VOC-Free – A sustainable option with no hazardous emissions.
• Broad Customization – Offers various colors, textures, and finishes.

Industries That Depend on Custom Metal Finishing

• Aerospace – Corrosion-resistant coatings for critical flight components.
• Automotive – Durable surface treatments for frames, chassis, and interior metals.
• Boilers and Vessels – Heat-resistant finishes for extreme operating environments.
• Construction – Powder-coated structural components for weather protection.
• Food & Beverage – Polished stainless steel for sanitary-grade processing equipment.
• Medical Devices – Precision-finished surfaces for surgical tools and enclosures.
• Oil & Gas – Corrosion-resistant coatings for pipes, refineries, and offshore equipment.
• Transportation – Wear-resistant coatings for rail, commercial fleets, and public transit systems.
• Alternative Energy – Protective finishes for solar, wind, and hydroelectric infrastructure.

The Metal Finishing Process

Every finishing project follows a structured workflow to ensure consistency, durability, and long-term performance.

1. Surface Preparation – Cleaning, sanding, and degreasing to create a flawless base.
2. Finishing Application – Precision-controlled plating, painting, polishing, or powder coating.
3. Curing & Drying – Optimized conditions to enhance coating adhesion and durability.
4. Final Inspection – Quality checks for uniformity, adhesion, and environmental resistance.
