Machined brass assembly used in industrial spraying application. The customer was looking to replace a destructive bright dip operation.

From Able Electropolishing Company, Inc.

the bright dipping caused problems by creating varying end finishes
including severely etched conditions. The customer needed a process that
would remove the heat discoloration and oxides produced from brazing and
achieve a decorative finish, all in one operation. In addition, the end customer
was looking for enhanced corrosion resistance.
