How Do You Give Your Robot It's Signature Look?
Everyone likes to make their robot look spiffy.
How do you give your robot parts their signature look?
I'll start:
As long as I was on the team, 67 used LPS1 Greaseless lubricant and abrasive Scotch Bright-type pads on the aluminum parts to produce the classy brushed aluminum effect. After the brushing was completed, we used shop towels (kind of like really heavy duty paper towels) to clean off the LPS1.
Since 2006, 67 gained access to powder coating facilities and colored some of their aluminum parts in the team colors.
