Metal polishing most frequent services
When it comes to metal polishing, each material has its own characteristics, requiring different services to have it shining again. Every piece is unique, therefore it may require a different combination of services.
Here below, we present an overview of the most commonly utilised services by us in the art of metal polishing:
-
cleaning: the first step in any metal polishing process. It involves removing dirt, grease, and grime from the metal surface using appropriate cleaning agents. This step is crucial for preparing the metal for further polishing and treatment.
-
removing tarnish: it is a thin layer of corrosion that naturally forms on the surface of some metals, like silver and copper, due to oxidation. Removing tarnish often involves using chemical cleaners or mildly abrasive compounds to restore the metal's natural lustre.
-
polishing: this is the core process of metal finishing, where abrasives are used to smooth and shine the metal surface. Polishing is done mechanically with buffing wheels and specialized machinery.
-
buffing: a finer form of polishing, buffing uses soft cloths or buffing wheels to create a mirror-like, high-gloss finish. It often follows the initial polishing phase to enhance the shine and smoothness of the metal.
-
coating: after polishing, some metals may be coated with a protective layer to prevent tarnishing and corrosion. Common coatings include lacquers, waxes, or specialized metal sealants. This not only preserves the polished look but also extends the longevity of the metal.
