INTRODUCTION

Metal finishing can be defined as the deposition of a coating that may be metallic or non-metallic onto a metallic substrate. It can be a surface treatment yielding a thin film to enhance the appearance, function, or performance of a product and to give added value and increased marketability. Metal finishing includes a number of operations that include surface preparation, surface pretreatment, and then the actual coating process. The coating process may be organic, inorganic, or hybrid. In this report, the emphasis will be on the inorganic metal coating technologies, relevant processes and products, and their respective global as well as regional markets.
