Non-contact polishing technique for surface treatment of metal foils has been studied. This paper presents a successful electropolishing technique to deal with the surface of stainless steel foils. This technique is capable of polishing large area(over 200mm width),ultra thin(below 50µm thick) metal foils to be with electric grade surface(Ra<0.02µm), and potential for mass production. The metal foils with electric grade surface could be used of a substrate of flexible electronic devices.
