Post Processing

A raw print or machined part is often only halfway to its full potential, and the right post-processing is what makes it look and perform like a finished product. In our Post-Processing collection, the Global3D team shares the techniques we use to refine parts after printing, machining and cutting. We cover support removal, sanding, filling and priming, along with smoothing methods that hide layer lines and prepare surfaces for paint.
You will learn how our airbrushing service brings models to life with smooth, even colour and protective finishes, and how processes like vapour smoothing, polishing and sealing improve both appearance and durability. We also explain how to plan for post-processing at the design stage so you avoid surprises in cost and lead time.
Whether you want a display ready model, a weather resistant outdoor part or a professional finish for a client presentation, these articles show what is achievable and how to get there.

Read on to understand your finishing options, then talk to us about combining printing, machining and post-processing into one streamlined project.
