Is it possible to have metallic silver shade/color by E.Coat ?

Whether it is possible to coat a steel surface by Electro deposition coating to have metallic silver shade /color? The resin system may be Epoxy or acrylic, is it done any where around the countries?

Hi, Vijaya. Whether they really look like silver is in the eye of the beholder, but metallic shades of electrocoating are doable. Tiger Drylac has a whole line of metallics.
