Acid Burnishing Compounds for Steel and Ceramic |

|
Acid burnishing compounds Used to give bright, lustrous surfaces, acid burnishing compounds are usually used with steel media, but can be used with ceramic media as well. Acid burnishing compounds are usually developed with one particular application in mind and keep lubricity, foam level, feed and roll of media, and cleaning capability as the most important characteristics. It is through focusing on individual, specific requirements that so many different acid burnishing compounds come about. Most of the new acid burnishing compounds were developed with extra inhibition properties. It is important to keep in mind that acid burnishers are reactive and can only offer limited corrosion protection. Acid burnishers with added inhibiting properties are designed to hold steel media for short periods of time (if a machine has to be shut off for a couple of hours during the day). However, even with the added inhibitor, the parts should be treated with a post inhibit solution.
