Abstract
A galvanically decorated component made of plastic has a galvanically applied chrome layer, wherein the chrome layer is processed with a laser in such a way that a mechanically applied brush structure or structure is reproduced on the surface. The component decorated in this way satisfies all requirements in accordance with the respective test specifications of the planned area of application. A method produces a plastic component having a structured surface. Components of this type made of plastic for the automotive industry are substantially decorative and operative elements.
Claims3
A galvanically decorated component made of plastic, having a layered structure and a texture or brushed texture introduced into the surface of the chrome layer on the visible side, wherein the texture or brushed texture replicates a brushed texture or texture in the surface on the visible side after galvanic deposition.
