How many types of surface treatment to stainless steel sink?
Do you know how many types of surface treatment to the stainless steel sinks? Here are some for your reference.
1.sink surface treatment - Pearl surface
Pearl surface is also called pearl silver surface, matte surface, pearl matte surface, etc. It's made from a surface treatment of a chemical electrolyte, similar to electroplating. This kind of surface treatment cost is the simplest process, the lowest price. But also because of this low-cost production process, its defect is that the surface of the stainless steel kitchen sink is not scratch-resistant, it is easy to be scratched, the coating will fall off in some serious condition. So now most companies are gradually replacing it with other processes.
2. sink surface treatment - mirror polish.
mirror is in the surface of the stainless steel sink polishing repeatedly, until the kitchen stainless steel sink surface can achieve the same effect as a mirror. But its defects are also very obvious, in daily life use, very easy to form scratches.
3.Sink surface treatment - embossed surface
As the name suggests, it is to press out a regular pattern on the surface of the sink or directly use the embossed plate pressing, and then use the pearl surface treatment method for surface treatment. Embossed surface visual effect is good, but after a long time use, the surface will accumulate fouling, not easy to clean.
4.Sink surface treatment - sand spray surface.
The surface of the sink is sprayed uniformly by the tiny sands with high speed, so that the surface will be smashed into many tiny pits. By this kind of treatment, the sink surface will become harder for scratch resistancy. But this treatment requires that the steel panel not be too thin.
5.Sink surface treatment - brushed surface.
Brushed surface is to grind the stainless steel sink surface repeatedly by grinding equipment, to make the surface sleek like a silk with a exquisite sense of touch. This surface treatment will give people a high-grade, elegant feeling. More over, because of this, the stainless steel plate, equipment and technology requirements are relatively high, so the price will be higher correspondingly, but its scratch resistance and wear resistance are obviously stronger.
