Product Finishes
Our aluminum mounts and brackets come standard with a "buffed aluminum" finish, that is hand polished with 0000 steel wool. Most products can also be powder coated for a reasonable additional cost, in any of the following standard colors: black, red, white, blue and clear.
For customers who desire a custom finish, the shop we use can powder coat almost any type of metal object to essentially any color, including metalic flake and clear-coat finishes.
"BUFFED" ALUMINUM
Unfinished aluminum is very attractive but it will oxidize (not rust) when exposed to moisture and road salt. You can help prevent oxidation by periodically coating it with a car or aluminum wax. Oxidation is a white, almost powdery, material that can mostly be remove using fine stainless steel. Our bare aluminum mounts and brackets are polished with #0000 steel wool.

"POWDER COATED" standard colors
Please note that it is very difficult to accurately portray actual colors on a computer monitor screen, and as such the exact colors may look a bit different on the actual part. We have selected bright, "middle spectrum" red and blue colors. The white is a "true white". The black is a semi gloss matt black. Below are sample colors. All powder coated products go through a three step process: (1) twice degreased, (2) media blasted, and (3) powder coated in desired finish. Powder coating offers a very durable, fade resistant finish. It is used for automotive, motorcycle, bike and many different outdoor metal objects.
