Zinc Plating Dyes
Metalline powdered dyes are used for coloring zinc plated & chromated parts. The dyes absorb into the chromate film that protects the zinc from corroding. Here are some things to consider when dying zinc plated parts:
- Use a high protection thick film trivalent chromate
- PAVCO’S HyproTec 1010 chromate absorbs dyes well and produces bright colors
- It is important to test each dye with the chromate being used
- Time, temperature and pH are important for optimum dye absorption
