Bright Dipping
Click to enlargeBright Dipping is a chemical or electro-brightening treatment which produces an extremely high luster on aluminum. The way that bright dip achieves this high luster is by smoothening the surface of the aluminum at the microscopic level. The bright dip procedure is often used as a pretreatment for anodizing to enhance the aesthetic qualities of a part.
Aluminum Alloys that are most suitable for bright dipping:
- 5357
- 5457
- 6063
- 7016
- 7029
In general 5XXX and 6XXX series aluminums will produce higher lusters than 2XXX and 7XXX series.
Please note that bright dipping will not be able to remove scratches or gouges in material.
