Selection notes

Coordinate the finish
with the fabrication.

Hairline and brushed stainless steel are common search terms for directional decorative surfaces. Those terms alone do not define one identical appearance. Record the required texture, reflectivity and grain direction with an agreed sample. Include the final orientation of panels if several sheets will sit next to each other.

In a fabrication inquiry, show bends, returns and the main viewing face. Ask how the grain direction will be carried through the cutting layout. For matching replacement work, send a retained sample where possible and describe how the new panels meet the existing installation. Avoid approving a bulk order solely from a photograph taken under different lighting.

Are all brushed finishes visually identical?

No. Use a sample and a clear directional reference when matching sheets or panels.

Why does grain direction matter?

It affects how adjacent panels look under light. Mark the intended direction on the layout.
