1.The steel is cleaned in a degreasing solution.

2.After being cleaned, the steel is pickled by being lowered into a vat of diluted hot sulfuric acid.

3.The steel is then fluxed in an aqueous solution (typically zinc-ammonium chloride).

4.After the flux, the steel is galvanized through immersion in a vat of molten zinc.

5.Afterward, the steel is inspected for consistency and a complete coating.
