Can you shower with gold PVD?

Gold PVD coatings are generally safe for use in showers, as they are highly resistant to corrosion and wear. The PVD process involves depositing a thin layer of gold onto a material, which can be brass, copper, or other metals, using physical vapor deposition. This results in a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish that is resistant to scratches and corrosion.

The durability of gold PVD coatings is due to the tight molecular bonding achieved during the deposition process, which makes the coating less likely to peel or flake off. This is particularly important in a shower environment, where the coating may be exposed to water and soap, which can otherwise cause metals to corrode.

Moreover, gold PVD coatings are often used in applications where resistance to environmental factors is crucial, such as in aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. This further supports their suitability for use in damp environments like showers.

However, it is important to note that while the gold PVD coating itself is durable and resistant, the underlying material (such as brass or copper) may not be as resistant to corrosion. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the entire fixture is suitable for wet environments to prevent any issues with corrosion or degradation of the base material over time.

In summary, gold PVD coatings are safe and suitable for use in showers due to their high resistance to corrosion and wear. They maintain their aesthetic appeal and functionality even in damp environments, making them a practical choice for bathroom fixtures and accessories.
