butler Finnish Aluminium sheet

Europoint used to do it because that’s who I have bought from in the past but don’t know if they still do, worth giving them a call to see 😆 😆

How much do you need ? It’s not the cheapest of substrates if I remember rightly lol

What is Butler finish? Heard it mentioned before but never used it

[Andy Thorne]

Its a brushed aluminium ACM sheet (to look a bit like brushed stainless steel). Be careful which one you buy though as not all are suitable for external use. The DiBond one is as has a lacquer over the top but some don’t and will start to oxidize outside.

quote Andy Thorne:

– Can confirm this.. Brushed finished ACM is often used outdoors but most, if not all, have no external guarantee.

Brushed aluminium sheet is available, however it does scratch very easily. The safest bet for a guaranteed brushed/butler finish for outdoor use is brushed stainless steel.
