Quality Coatings of Spokane Washington is here for all your
anodizing needs. During sulfuric anodizing, no metallics are involved other than aluminum. How does
anodizing work: Unlike electro-deposited metallic plating, where plating builds up by depositing on a
base metal, an anodic coating penetrates and grows on the base metal by converting aluminum to aluminum oxide.
The ratio of growth/penetration for anodic coatings is typically 50/50*.
Proper formation of aluminum oxide coatings, also known as aluminum anodizing,
provides aluminum with a natural decorative appearance and increased resistance to corrosion and abrasion. These
are just a few of the benefits associated with aluminum anodizing. Normally between .0001" to .001";
thick, sulfuric anodizing lends itself readily to clear anodizing and color anodizing work, as the coating is
more transparent than other types of anodizing. In addition, it serves as a base for color absorption to
create decorative finishes.
Dyes can be deposited into the pores of the anodized layer and then sealed. The result is a highly desirable,
rich, intense, permanent color anodizing finish.
