    Galvanizing Undercover
    The protective qualities of hot-dip galvanizing are highly sought after; however, the shiny, reflective finished look is not always desired. By standing out, it can detract from the environment in which the product is located. That is why we offer a deglaring process to reduce the reflectivity of the galvanized surface, enabling the structure to blend more comfortably into wooded and arid environments. This allows our customers to realize the corrosion resistance without worrying about a possible negative visual impact. During the deglaring process, the structure is immersed in a bath containing a zinc-phosphate solution. While immersed, insoluble zinc-phosphate crystals are precipitated and deposited on the surface of the galvanized coating. After allowing the reaction to take place, this crystallizing action leaves behind a continuous film of zinc-phosphate on the surface of the galvanized structure.
