THERMAL BARRIER COATINGS > CERMARED™, CERMABLUE™, CERMASSTEEL™

These coatings are coloured versions of the “Cermakrome” coating and have similar properties. The degree of shine can be varied by the amount of polishing time applied so interesting decorative patterns can be obtained. The “CermaSSteel” coating cures to a grey colour but takes on the appearance of stainless steel after time in a vibratory polisher.
