The E-Plate finish can be applied to any type of putter. E-Plate is also known as electroplating. As the name suggest, the process involves depositing material using an electric current. This process results in a thin layer of metal being deposited onto the surface of a workpiece called the substrate. Electroplating is primarily used to change the physical properties of an object. This process is used to give objects increased wear resistance, corrosion protection and aesthetic appeal. While electroplating may seem like advanced technology, it has actually a centuries-old process. Electroplating is offered in a variety of colors. All dings, dents and scratches are removed and this finish can be performed in a matte, satin, brushed or polished finish.
