Lacquer Finish
Lacquer Finish is a surface treatment used on suitable metal components where the finished appearance needs to be maintained and the surface requires an additional protective layer. The finish is selected according to the material, surface condition and customer specification.
For precision components, lacquer finishing can follow polishing or other surface preparation so the required appearance is carried through to the final supplied part.
Lacquer Finish for Precision Metal Components
Lacquer finishing is particularly relevant when the visual condition of a metal surface is part of the component requirement. The final result depends on the surface prepared before the lacquer is applied.
Preparing the Surface
Surface marks, polishing quality and cleanliness can influence the appearance of a lacquered component. Buffing, part finishing or other suitable preparation may therefore be included before the final treatment.
Brass, Copper and Other Alloys
Dipak Sales works with ETP Copper, Aluminum, Phosphor Bronze, lead-free brass alloys, low-lead brass alloys and copper alloys. Lacquer suitability and the required finish are determined by the material and application.
Appearance and Protection
A lacquer layer can help maintain the specified surface appearance while providing an additional protective finish. Exact performance depends on the agreed lacquer system and service conditions.
Final Component Condition
Lacquer Finish can be combined with machining, vibratory bowl finishing, buffing and part finishing so the component reaches the customer in the required finished condition.
