Compare finishes side by side

Choose two to four finishes. A finish is always approved on a physical sample of your metal, so ask for samples of the ones you like.

Swipe sideways to see every finish.

How it looksSofter and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.A surface deliberately aged — mottled, darkened and worn back in places — so that new metal reads as if it has been in the building for decades.Fully reflective.

Worth knowingSmall repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.The dents hold dust and, outside, water.No two panels are the same, which is the point.Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.
Looking after itAlong the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.
