Velvet |
Hides scratches, fingerprints and marring for heavy-use applications. Also acts as a diffuser for “windowed” or back-lit applications. |
Suede |
Excellent in very heavy-wear applications.
Resists abrasion while maintaining its attractive appearance. |
Brushed |
Unique brushed texture provides metallic appearance |
