Achieve a Mirror Finish on Stainless Steel Castings – Simplified Guide ✨
Here’s a concise breakdown of key steps:
Optimize Casting Quality
Minimize defects (porosity, inclusions) during casting.
Use high-grade alloys like 304/316 stainless steel.
Grind & Buff
Start with coarse grit (80–320) to smooth surfaces.
Progressively refine with finer abrasives and buffing compounds.
Electropolish (Optional)
Enhance reflectivity and corrosion resistance via electrochemical smoothing.
Final Hand Polish
Use soft cloth + polishing paste for flawless shine.
Inspect & Clean
Remove residues and verify finish under bright light.
Applications: Ideal for medical, architectural, and food industries requiring aesthetics + durability.
