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 looks	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.	Design bitten into the surface, producing fine detail and artwork that cannot be achieved mechanically.	Fully reflective.	A worked surface of controlled dents that breaks reflection into hundreds of small highlights.

Worth knowing	No two panels are the same, which is the point.	Shallow by nature, so it wears where hands and feet pass — a wall or a panel, not a counter or a step.	Shows every fingerprint and every scratch, so it belongs where it will be looked at and not handled.	The dents hold dust and, outside, water.
Looking after it	Wax or a clear coat holds the effect; dust it, and wipe with a damp cloth.	Mild detergent and a soft cloth.	A soft dry cloth for dust and a damp one for marks — never anything abrasive, which scratches a mirror surface permanently.	A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks.
