Surface Finish Designations

  
Finish
Definitions
  
Structural
This is not controlled for uniformity of appearance. Rod, bar and solid shapes are supplied in this finish unless otherwise specified.
  
Architectural
A controlled finish of substantially uniform appearance, buffing will not produce a finish free of die-lines unless a preliminary grinding or sanding operation is employed. This finish is normally satisfactory for exposed surfaces of any architectural application, other than feature components and is applied to visible surfaces of each shape nominated by the purchaser.
