Learn MoreCoatings are an application of a visible finish with a pretreatment that offers a base material protection and a 'key' for the visible coating to adhere too. Anodising uses the unique nature of aluminium as its surface can be converted into aluminium oxide, a material so tough it is often used as an abrasive.
