A common purpose of electropolishing is to remove surface material in a systematic fashion in order to remove defects that can only be seen at a microscopic level. By having your parts electropolished, they will be more resistant to cracking and corrosion, making your parts more reliable and long-lasting.
 
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 ..
