Finishing

Muhtasari

A finish is the last thing you do to a product and the first thing the user sees and touches. Finishing is far more than decoration: it protects the material from moisture, corrosion and wear, it improves how the surface feels and looks, and it can add colour and meaning. Choosing a finish that suits both the material and the job is a marked skill in 0445.

This note runs through the finishes used on each class of material: papers and boards, woods, metals and polymers. You will see why some materials need a finish to survive at all, why others need almost none, and how surface preparation is the step that decides whether any finish succeeds or fails.

Malengo

  1. show knowledge of a range of finishes for the classes of materials listed in section 1.5.

Maelezo ya Somo

Every finish does one or more of three jobs. It can protect the material from its environment: paint and oil keep water out of wood, galvanising stops steel rusting, lacquer stops brass tarnishing. It can improve the surface by making it smoother, more hard-wearing or easier to clean. And it can decorate, adding colour, pattern, shine or texture for visual appeal. A good answer always links the finish to the need: an outdoor bench is painted mainly to protect it from rain, whereas a wooden toy is finished mainly so it is smooth, safe and washable.
