About Coating Services

Coating services coat or plate the surfaces of manufactured components. Coating processes include ceramic, coil, dip, dry lubricant, phosphate, powder, rubber, thin film, titanium, and selective coating. Coating services also perform chemical finishing, galvanizing, hardfacing, painting, thermal spraying, and screen printing. Plating deposits a metal salt solution onto a metal or conductive surface. Electroplating requires the application of DC power. Electroless plating does not. Common plating materials include brass, cadmium, chrome, copper, gold, nickel, platinum, rhodium, silver, tin, tin-lead, titanium, and zinc. Some coating services process new components or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts. Others restore damaged surfaces or provide services at customer sites or in the field. Coating services are located across the United States and around the world. Many meet International Standards Organization (ISO) requirements or automotive, aerospace, military, or OEM specifications.
