Abstract:
     The invention provides a physicochemical process for refining relatively rough metal surfaces to a condition of high smoothness and brightness, in relatively brief periods of time, which is characterized by the use of a non-abrasive, high-density burnishing media. The process can be carried out in one step and with minimal production of media fines, thus affording economic and environmental advantages.
