Finishing Methods for Aluminum
Mechanical Finishes
Used to add texture to a surface or polish it to a chrome finish. Techniques include sanding, polishing, grinding, buffing, or blasting.
Chemical Finishes
Applied by dipping the profile in a chemical solution. The most popular chemical finishes include etching which gives a matte or satin finish, and bright-dipping which gives a shiny chrome-like finish.
Production
Process in which the aluminum profile is immersed in a tank containing an acid-based electrolyte. This allows aluminum profiles to retain their metallic luster while accepting a durable and vibrant color.
Liquid Coatings
Available in a broad range of paints, such as polyesters, acrylics, siliconized polyesters, and fluoropolymers. These applications are available in a nearly unlimited array of colors allowing for finishes that please every taste.
Powder Coating
Applies a decorative finish similar to paint but with more durability. The process involves melting dry plastic powder onto the metal to produce a textured, matte or glossy coating. Eagle Mouldings has access to thousands of powder colors for your aluminum trim finish. Ask us about our stocked colors or call out a color code yourself from the RAL Color Chart.
Sublimation
Have you ever seen aluminum extrusions that look like wood? After applying a base coat of powder, profiles can go through sublimation. Technicians wrap the profiles in a thin film with a pattern on it. The sublimation process transfers that pattern directly onto the extrusions.
