Surface Finishing Options for SLS 3D Printed Parts

Enhance the functionality, durability, and aesthetics of your SLS parts with these professional finishing techniques:

As-Sintered

Parts are delivered with a slightly rough, grainy texture—ideal for functional prototyping without post-processing.

Media Tumbling

Smooths the part surface using abrasive media, reducing roughness and improving the overall appearance.

Dyeing

Adds vibrant, uniform color by soaking parts in dye—commonly used for branding or aesthetic prototypes.

Spray Painting

Provides a smooth, colorful surface finish and enhances visual appeal for presentation-ready models.

Vapor Smoothing

Applies a chemical vapor treatment to melt the outer surface slightly, resulting in a glossy, sealed, and smoother finish.

Epoxy Coating

Applies a protective, paintable layer that fills in the surface texture and boosts strength, appearance, and water resistance.
