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.

	Brushed & satin	PVD & coatings	Special effects	Smoky effect
Family	Polished	Coated	Textured	Patinated
How it looks	Softer and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.	Brass, gold, champagne, rose gold, copper, bronze, gun metal, black nickel and antique brass tones, plus oxidised and custom colour coatings — the way to put a warm metal’s colour on stainless steel.	Brushed swirls, directional grains and figured patterns worked into the sheet by hand and by machine — a finish that appears to move as you walk past it, because the grain catches light from one direction and not another.	Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.

Worth knowing	Small repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.	A scratch through a PVD or coated surface is through the colour, and it cannot be touched up invisibly — the panel is refinished or replaced.	The pattern is set by the sheet, so the layout of panels is decided with the pattern — a swirl cut through by a joint reads as a mistake.	Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.
Looking after it	Along the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.	Mild soap and water, soft cloth, nothing abrasive and no strong cleaners — the colour is a thin layer and is kept by not attacking it.	Wipe along the grain, never across it, with a soft cloth.	Lacquered, it is simply wiped.
