Brushed Steel Lighting
The "brushed" finish is beautifully versatile and looks stunning in almost any setting. A brushed steel light fitting is also a great choice for longevity; its timeless style sits effortlessly amongst any decor, lasting easily through many redecoration projects.
This finish is achieved by carefully polishing the steel, initially with a high grit belt followed by a smoother one. To give the brushed finish its intentional look, rather than just looking scratched, the polishing is done in a single direction.
How to Clean Brushed Stainless Steel
Brushed stainless steel has the added benefit of easy maintenance. By no means is it immune to grime and fingerprints, but it is more resistant than a traditional shiny finish. When it comes to maintenance, it's not much different to how you would treat regular stainless steel. Most daily marks will come off with a regular duster, or a clean cloth dampened with some warm water. Just be sure to wipe in the direction of the grain to avoid any damage.
It’s important to avoid using anything abrasive on brushed finishes, so no sponges or steel wool, and always ensure you use clean water to avoid any bits of grit that could scratch your brushed steel light fitting.
