Product information Verzinkshop Black Stainless Steel Oxide

Verzinkshop Black Stainless Steel Oxide gives stainless steel a gray-black iridescent finish. Stainless steel naturally has rust-resistant properties, so a sealer is not necessary. Still, a sealer can be applied as extra protection or for optical purposes. The kit includes Verzinkshop Black Stainless Steel Concentrate and a sealer of your choice.

The color of stainless steel after chemical blackening

With stainless steel, the finish varies from gray to iridescent blue-black, depending on the amount of chromium and nickel. Stainless steel 300 series like 316 is more resistant to corrosion, keeping the finish lighter. Stainless steel 400 series can darken due to a lower chromium content.
