Surface Finishing

The finish is the part your customer touches. Our manufacturing network provides access to a broad range of cosmetic and functional finishing processes — applied, matched and inspected to your specification.

Finishing processes

Cosmetic when it shows. Functional when it counts.

Powder Coating

Durable, uniform color for extrusions, castings and fabrications. Indoor and architectural-grade outdoor systems, standard and custom colors, masked features preserved.

  • RAL colors
  • Texture / gloss
  • AAMA-grade options

Anodizing

Clear, black and colored anodize for aluminum extrusions and machined parts — corrosion protection with a premium architectural appearance.

  • Clear / black
  • Type II
  • Hard anodize (Type III)

Wet Painting

Liquid paint systems for parts where color match, gloss level or substrate rules out powder — with plaque approval before production.

  • Color match
  • Primer systems
  • Soft-touch

Plating

Zinc, zinc-nickel and decorative plating for corrosion resistance and appearance on steel and zinc die-cast hardware.

  • Zinc clear / black
  • Zn-Ni
  • Salt-spray rated

Polishing & Brushing

Mechanical surface preparation — mirror polish, brushed grain, uniform blasted matte — as the final finish or as prep for anodize and plating.

  • Brushed
  • Polished
  • Bead blast

Specification-Driven

Coating thickness, adhesion, gloss and salt-spray requirements written into the part spec and verified on production lots — not assumed.

  • DFT checks
  • Cross-hatch
  • Gloss meter

Finishing is coordinated across our qualified manufacturing network and applied according to your specifications — so a cast, machined and coated part still arrives as one inspected deliverable.
