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.

How it looksSofter and more open than hairline, with a matt reflection that sits comfortably beside stone and timber.Surfaces worked or grown to a tactile grain — crystalline, mottled, stony, or crazed like old glaze — that catches side light and changes as the light moves.A non-directional swirled grain that scatters light.Soft clouds of dark tone drifting across a warm ground.

Worth knowingSmall repairs blend better than on hairline but a damaged area is still re-brushed across the whole face.Deep textures collect dirt and grease, so they belong away from kitchens, counters and the outdoors.Hard to carry cleanly around a tight curve, so it suits flat and gently formed panels.Suits panels, cladding and furniture seen as a whole.
Looking after itAlong the grain, mild detergent, soft cloth.Dust with a soft brush and wipe; a deep grain holds what a flat surface would shed.Wipe in any direction — there is no grain to respect, which is why it hides scuffs better than any other polished surface.Lacquered, it is simply wiped.
