“Surface Labs took to the challenge of coating our product easily and readily, while other companies indicated that our specs couldn’t be met. The sample sent to Surface Labs were returned promptly with a very impressive coating, a simple manufacturing process, and a convenient business model of buying the know-how and reagents directly. Overall we are very impressed with Surface Labs capabilities and user friendliness, and highly recommend them to anyone with coating needs.”
