2. Pickling (metal) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickling_(metal)

   Pickling is a metal surface treatment used to remove impurities, such as stains, inorganic contaminants, and rust or scale from ferrous metals, copper, precious metals and aluminum alloys. [1] A solution called pickle liquor, which usually contains acid, is used to remove the surface impurities. It is commonly used to descale or clean steel in ...

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Fish_Cleaning_Station

   I've seen a cleaning action with only one fish being cleaned, but this one was really a cleaning station with many fishes lined up to get cleaned. So, cut fishes in the left (convict tangs) and a fish behind the corals, as well as the corals themselves are part of the subject.

   Electropolishing. Electropolishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing (especially in the metallography field), is an electrochemical process that removes material from a metallic workpiece, reducing the surface roughness by levelling micro-peaks and valleys, improving the surface finish.

7. Self-cleaning surfaces - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-cleaning_surfaces

   A) A superhydrophobic surface with a high contact angle nearing 180 degrees. B) A surface with a low water sliding angle. C) A surface with a higher sliding angle which will be less efficient when self-cleaning water from its surface. Control over surface wettability is a critical aspect of self-cleaning surfaces.
