In the surface finishing industry, there are several different kinds of metals that are considered “traditional.” These metals are typically abundant, frequently used across a variety of sectors, and are typically cheaper to plate or finish than their less-common counterparts. Metals such as tin, copper, and aluminum can all be considered common substrates due to their natural abundance and frequency of use across a multitude of industries.
Common substrates typically present little-to-no challenges when applying surface finishes, and therefore these processes are typically the most cost-effective option for strengthening and increasing the aesthetic appeal of your components.
