Vapor polishing is a method of polishing plastics like polycarbonate, ABS, acrylic, nylon etc. to reduce the surface roughness or improve clarity. Typically, a component is exposed to Weldon-4 gas causing the surface to flow thereby improving the surface finish.

There are many types of plastic resins we use every day to make clear plastic parts. Examples of common resins include acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS or PE. Right after molding, clear parts can be used for various kinds of viewscreens, light pipes, cases, covers, and many other common household items that need to be at least semi-transparent. That's where Vapor Polishing comes in.
