Bead Blast

Bead Blast

Bead Blast is a non-directional finish that is uniformly textured and low gloss. Its lower reflectivity makes it suitable for roofing applications. Bead Blast can also be used for wall panels, coping, and trim. The consistency of the finish makes it excellent for panel-to-panel matching. Can be coated with anti-fingerprint coating for interior use.

What are the advantages of a Bead Blast finish?

Bead Blast finish creates a subtle, satin-like, non-directional surface with a soft, matte appearance that reduces glare and provides a uniform, streak-free look. The high-pressure bead blasting process produces a smooth yet textured finish that enhances visual appeal and improves surface durability.
