Worth knowing before you choose it
The dents hold dust and, outside, water. Needs heavier material than a flat finish, so the panel is heavier and the edge detail is designed around that. Does not sit flush against glass or stone without a planned reveal.
Looking after it
A soft brush lifts dust from the dents; a damp cloth for marks. No abrasives, which flatten the highlights that make the finish.
A finish is always approved on a physical sample of the metal you are using, under the light it will live in. Pictures on a screen only show the character of it.
