Abstract
A method of surface refinement for refining a first roughness of a surface of a component to a second roughness. The method includes wetting the first roughness surface with an aqueous mixture that includes solid media. The aqueous mixture chemically alters the surface forming a chemically converted surface. Relative movement between the chemically converted surface and the solid media produces the refined second roughness.
