What is Mirror Finish Polishing
A mirror finish in mechanical engineering means a surface that’s extremely smooth and reflective, like a mirror. It’s achieved through polishing and buffing until it’s free of imperfections, scratches, or roughness. This smoothness is desired for aesthetics and function, especially in precision components, optical instruments, moulds, and dies, where low friction and easy cleaning matter are needed. This process is commonly used for polishing stainless steel.
Dainsta's Process to Polish Stainless Steel
The polishing process begins with sanding to eliminate deep scratches and achieve a mirror finish. The process progresses by switching to finer and finer grits, gradually smoothing the surface. Next, a polishing compound and buffing wheel attached to a power tool bring out a brilliant shine.
Finally, a very fine polishing compound is applied with a soft cloth, removing microscopic imperfections and revealing a flawless, mirror-like reflection. In some cases, White Diamond polish can also be used for the same. After the process, the polished stainless steel gets features such as:
The stainless steel transforms into a dazzling surface, reflecting its surroundings with incredible clarity.
The polishing process removes imperfections, leaving the stainless steel feeling incredibly smooth and gliding across your fingertips.
While inherent to stainless steel, a mirror finish can further improve its resistance to corrosion by minimizing areas where contaminants can accumulate.
