A Selection of Metal Finishes |
"... Verdigris; where engineering becomes art ..."
We use a variety of different metals for our
work and they can all be finished in different ways, ranging from
heavily textured to
highly polished.
The finish we use we use with these metals is also influenced by
where the the work will be sited. For example, steel will
rust when used outdoors. Painting will help slow down this rusting
but it is most effectively prevented by first galvanising the steel.
When used indoors though, steel needs less protection and can simply
be waxed to avoid masking it's attractive natural forged texture
with paint . However, when polished or satin finished, stainless
steel will not rust and can be used outdoors without further protection.
Follow the links below for some more information on some of the finishes
we use.
