Abstract
A method of micro-texturing a substrate surface is disclosed, including printing a maskant on the substrate surface to define exposed surface zones on the substrate surface. The method further includes forming a micro-texture on the substrate surface by removing material from the exposed surface zones, and removing the maskant from the substrate surface.
