Q:
Do you sell sheets of
the
RaceMesh™
Grille material?
A:
No, we don't sell the raw material. We do offer custom cut RaceMesh Grilles
and do accept your template(s) that we will cut to the desired
specifications. Please contact us for a custom quote and availability.
Q:
Why is the average turn
around time frame approx 20 business days to receive a
RaceMesh™
Grille once the order is placed?
A:
Each
RaceMesh™
Grille order is "made to order" and not stocked. This takes time to
fabricate to the customers requirements which can include the finish type,
special paint requirements, as well as multiple parts in the single order
such as, upper and lower grilles as well as special custom inserts for
various openings on the vehicle. Many of our standard lower intake orders
are turned around in less than 20 business days. Additionally, we are a small family
owned and operated custom woven wire mesh specialty company, and fulfill
each customers order in the order received. We are thankful for the very high demand for our high quality custom built
RaceMesh™
Grilles.
Q:
For the
RaceMesh™
Kidney Grilles, how is the Hood Catch release handled?
A: Since the OEM Hood Catch release arm
protrudes forward between the vertical slats of the OEM grill, it
needs to be slightly modified since this path is gone once the
RaceMesh kidneys are installed. The new path is through the RaceMesh
with the use of a pull wire attached to the OEM hood catch.
Fully
illustrated detailed instructions are provided with each RaceMesh™
Kidney Grille.
Q:
Do you use aftermarket
grilles when building custom RaceMesh Grilles?
A:
No, we only use original equipment (OEM) BMW kidney grilles when fabricating
RaceMesh™
Kidney Grilles. Additionally, for our other makes / models, we also use only
the OEM grilles in our fabrications. At the request of the customer, we do
however use aftermarket grilles in those fabrications where applicable.
Q:
Do you have any
Distributors / Installers that stock / install RaceMesh Grilles?
A:
No, RaceMesh Grilles "Drop-Ships" each order direct to the customer, but
many of our Distributors do offer local installs for customers on request.
We have no designated/authorized installers. If you are local to RaceMesh
Grilles here in Northern California, we do offer installations as well as
"One-Off" custom design/build/fabrications. Please
contact us for pricing, availability and to
schedule an install.
Q:
What is ElectroPolished Stainless Steel?
A:
Electropolishing is an electrochemical
process by which surface metal is removed by anodic dissolution.
Sometimes referred to as "reverse plating", electropolishing actually
removes metal starting with the high points within the microscopic
surface texture. By removing these points, electropolishing will improve
the surface finish, leaving a smoother and more reflective surface.
Electropolishing is accomplished by altering the electrode potential of
metal piece within a heated electrolyte bath. A cathode is assembled to
mirror the surface of the piece. When current is supplied, the
electrical charge causes metal ions to be dissolved from the surface of
the working piece. The key to the process is the differences in the
current density across the microscopic surface. The current density is
greatest at high points and lowest at the low points. The rate of the
electrochemical reaction is directly proportional to the current
density. The increased current density at the raised points causes the
metal to dissolve faster at these points and thus levels the surface
material.
Appearance:
The most striking benefit of electropolishing is the reflective physical
appearance. Electropolishing is a non-mechanical process. No tools come
in contact with the piece so there is no risk of creating directional
polishing lines. The material is treated electrochemically, leaving a
microscopically smooth surface that is highly reflective and has a
bright appearance.
Corrosion
resistance:
Surface contaminants, including grease, dirt, and iron, are inherent to
the metal fabrication process. Mechanical cutting and polishing will
leave abrasives and iron particles embedded in the metal. The presence
of surface contaminates will disrupt the formation of stainless steels'
naturally corrosion resistant surface layer. Electropolishing removes
surface material and surface contaminates, and promotes the formation of
a thick (greater than 20 angstroms), uniform and protective passive
oxide layer.
Mechanical fabrication can create local galvanic differences. Both
contaminates and residual stresses within the cold worked surface layer
may produce localized galvanic corrosion cells. Electropolishing removes
the outermost surface material, and thus minimizes the possibility of
local corrosion cells and leaves the surface with an even electrode
potential. The improved corrosion resistance is quantifiable and
reproducible.
