Summary for rubberized coating for zamac pens Discussion
Rubberized coating for zamac pens is the core question here: the poster die-cast a pen body and wants a soft, grippy exterior finish, either as a dip/paint coating or as a snug sleeve over the chrome-plated shape. The thread excerpt does not include any replies, so no specific process recommendation or supplier advice is given in the source. The practical need is clear, though: a finish that improves grip without ruining the appearance of the plated pen body. Because there are no answer posts in the excerpt, the page mainly documents the request rather than a resolved solution.
RFQ: I die cast a pen body and want to have an outside finish that is rubberized. Either to apply to the material (dip or paint), or fit snugly over the shape for increased gripping. The illustrated one has been chrome plated.
