Improve Our Finishing of Stainless Kitchen Equipment
2000
Dear Sir,
We are manufacturing kitchen equipments. We would like to know is there any way we can improve our stainless steel finishing. Kindly let us know.
thanking you,

Mr. Kumar:
Your product may need electropolishing. This process simultaneously cleans, brightens, deburrs, and passivates stainless steels.

Dear Sir,
Further to the response received on Electropolishing as an ideal route to achieving mirror finishes, you need:
1) To standardise the Grade of SS being purchased and ensure you buy the same grade every time.
2) To ensure the dies used for drawing produce scratch free draws. To re finish dies that scratch while drawing.
3)Use drawing compounds that are suitable for the specific application so easy draws are the norm rather than the exception.
4) Coming to the actual Electropolishing application, there are several makers of Equipment and chemicals in India who can provide the right mix of machinery and chemical combinations for the work envisaged.
5) post electro-polishing activity will envisage careful handling and safe packing . We don't want to scratch those nicely electropolished sinks .
