  2. Thermal spraying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_spraying

    The torch melts the coating material and the top layer of the component material; fusing them together. Due to the high heat of spray and fuse, some heat distortion may occur, and care must be taken to determine if a component is a good candidate. These high temperatures are akin to those used in welding.
