Anodizing
Anodizing is an electrochemical process that forms a durable oxide coating on aluminum. The anodic coating is part of the metal but has a porous structure that allows secondary infusion, such as coloring.
Benefits of an anodized finish include
- Increased Durability
- Pleasing Appearance
- No Chipping, Peeling, or Flaking
- No Fingerprints
