2. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

   Chemical coloring of metals is the process of changing the color of metal surfaces with different chemical solutions. The chemical coloring of metals can be split into three types: electroplating – coating the metal surface with another metal using electrolysis. patination – chemically reacting the metal surface to form a colored oxide or ...

3. Kalai (process) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalai_(process)

   The art of kalai (kalhai or qalai) is the process of coating an alloy surface such as copper or brass by deposition of metal tin on it. [1] The word "kalai" is derived from Sanskrit word kalya lepa, which means "white wash or tin". [2]

4. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing_(metalworking)

   The color motion gives a clean, bright, shiny surface finish. This is achieved by moving the workpiece with the rotation of the buffing wheel, while using medium to light pressure. When polishing brass (a softer metal) there are often minute marks in the metal caused by impurities.

5. Patina - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patina

   Patina (/ p ə ˈ t iː n ə / pə-TEE-nə or / ˈ p æ t ɪ n ə / PAT-ih-nə) is a thin layer that variously forms on the surface of copper, brass, bronze, and similar metals and metal alloys (tarnish produced by oxidation or other chemical processes), or certain stones [1] and wooden furniture (sheen produced by age, wear, and polishing), or ...

6. Surface finishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finishing

   Also known as a mirror finish. This finish is produced by polishing with at least a 320 grit belt or wheel finish. Care will be taken in making sure all surface defects are removed. The part is sisal buffed and then color buffed to achieve a mirror finish. The quality of this finish is dependent on the quality of the metal being polished.

7. Electropolishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropolishing

   Electropolishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing (especially in the metallography field), is an electrochemical process that removes material from a metallic workpiece, reducing the surface roughness by levelling micro-peaks and valleys, improving the surface finish.
