High Gloss |
The gloss of the created surface finish is highly reflective after the polish of the male mold before making the mold. This high-gloss finish provides high transparency and is beneficial for cosmetic pieces, lenses, and other surfaces that can be easily cleaned. |
A1, A2, A3 |
|
|
Semi Gloss |
This B level finish doesn’t reflect light strongly yet provides a bit of luster. By utilizing rough sandpaper, smooth, washable surfaces can be achieved, falling between high-shine and dull. |
B1, B2, B3 |
|
|
Matte Finish |
Vacuum cast parts can attain a satin-like appearance by using bead or sand blasting on the original mold. Such C-tier finishes are well-suited to spots frequently touched as well as handheld parts. |
C1, C2, C3 |
|
|
Custom |
RapidDirect is able to offer personalized finishes using supplementary methods. If desired, distinctive secondary finishes can be obtained to achieve optimal outcomes. |
