Brush Plating
Selective electro-deposition of nickel, copper, cadmium, silver, gold and zinc directly onto the work area — no tanks, no disassembly.
Capabilities
Quality workmanship at cost effective prices, from inspection through final finish.
Dimensional Restoration
Bring worn, mis-machined or corroded components back to print tolerance without the heat distortion of welding.
Corrosion Protection
Protective and sacrificial coatings applied to aerospace, marine, hydro and heavy-industry assemblies.
On-Site Repair
Mobile crews with portable rectifiers reach your plant, vessel or job site to cut downtime to hours instead of weeks.
Anodizing & Etching
Selective anodizing, chemical etch and touch-up of aluminum surfaces where masking or immersion is impractical.
Machining Support
Pre- and post-plate grinding and finishing so parts return to service ready to install.
Built to print tolerance
Every deposit is laid down to a measured thickness, then verified and finished so the part goes back into service meeting the original drawing — no rework, no surprises.
- In-process thickness checks on every layer
- Final dimensional inspection before release
- Full traceability and certification available
On-Site & In-House
Whether the job comes to our shop or we go to yours, Canadian Metal-Ad has the crew and equipment to handle it.
On-Site Work
Our mobile crews bring portable rectifiers, hand tools and full process kits to your plant, vessel or job site. We perform selective brush plating, corrosion repair and dimensional restoration in place — cutting equipment downtime to hours instead of weeks and avoiding the logistics of shipping large or fixed assemblies.
