Introduction & technical information<br />
Easy identification of the best trim material.<br />
The correct choice of trim material is very important in obtaining the best surface finish, because the desired result will<br />
only be achieved by correctly matching the trim to the surface material being finished. The illustration below clearly<br />
explains the relationships involved in each stage of the process.<br />
E.g.: Paint removal from aluminium blank homogeneous surfaces by selection of steel wire, crimped, stainless<br />
