1.Surface Finishes

Dull Finish

Dull finish, which is attained by attaching numerous fine grains onto the steel surface, is often called 'pear-skin finish' or 'egg-shell texture'.  The grains are made by steel grit blasted roll.  The dull finish is useful in drawing  because lubricant oil can be evenly spread over the entire surface, thereby reducing the possibility of friction.  The fine grains also help boost paint adherence and extend the steel life span.

2.Oiling

Steel surface is treated with lubricant oil to prevent rusting while in storage or during shipment.  Depending on customers' request, POSCO delivers its steel products either oiled (heavily, generally, or lightly) or un-oiled.
