Metallizing is the general name for the technique of coating metal on the surface of non-metallic objects.

• Metallizing spray coatings have the ability to be built up to a greater thickness and provide a durable finish.
• Metallizing was the first type of thermal spray process, developed in Europe around 1910.
• In an emergency metallizing can be used as a build coat for the Plasma or HVOF spray process when a heavy build up coat is needed and there is no time to remanufacture.
• Metallized spray coatings are the most economical of all the different spray systems.
• Metallized spray coatings are considered a “Cold Spray” process, meaning that it does not get the base material over 300 degrees F.
