Finish
Bead Blast
An even, fine-textured matte surface, made by blasting the metal with glass bead. It is the same in every direction, so there is no grain to line up.

Metal finishes do not photograph honestly. Colour and reflection in the photograph above change with the light and the camera. Ask MCS for physical samples in the intended metal and thickness before you specify.

Some of these pictures are illustrations. They are here to show the kind of work the finish is used on — the finish on any individual piece was specified by that project, so request a physical sample rather than matching to a photograph.
