Abstract

Method of manufacturing a steel strip, comprising the subsequent steps of hot rolling the strip into a hot rolled strip, cold rolling the hot rolled strip and hot dip coating the cold rolled strip with a Zn based coating by leading the strip through a bath comprising molten zinc and wiping the strip after said coating using a gas knife having a knife slot from which a wiping gas is projected and the steel strip is cold rolled to a final cold rolled thickness of between 0.40 mm and 1.00 mm in a multi-stand cold rolling mill wherein cold rolling, and coated steel sheet comprising a steel substrate provided with a hot dip metal coating.
