Tips for working with this sheet
- Cut with standard metalworking snips or a rotary tool designed for aluminum; deburr edges for a clean, safe finish.
- When bending or forming, make gradual radii to preserve the elliptical profile and avoid kinks.
- Handle with gloves to protect the satin finish from fingerprints and oils during installation.
Care and maintenance
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could dull the satin finish. Store flat in a dry area to prevent edge damage or warping.
