Decorative layers are decisive for aesthetic value of castings, therefore significant demands are raised towards such layers, e.g. pleasant durable colour, gloss, and smoothness. The work discusses the influence of the type of mechanical working applied to the surfaces of CuSn10 tin bronze castings on the quality and durability of a decorative coating. The scope of the work has included designing and manufacturing of cast samples of tin bronze, mechanical working of the surfaces in order to prepare them for applying coating layers, generating decorative layers as a result of chemical reactions, and the quality assessment and comparison of the obtained coating. The assessment of thickness and continuity of the obtained decorative layers based on metallographic examinations has been presented.
