Appearance of steel tubes
- Standard: Smooth with a certain shine as it is raw steel. Depending on the manufacture, the colour can vary from light grey to black.
- Shot-blasted:Uniform colour that is close to umber grey "RAL7022" with slight shading and texture that blends perfectly with the colour of the plumbing fittings cast iron and shot blasted steel.
As they are raw steel there is a thin film of oil to protect them from corrosion.
This oil film can be removed with our metal cleaner or with any other degreaser (e.g. brake cleaner).
Then you can protect it with a aerosol varnish of a aerosol paint or with linseed oil baked into a very thin layer.
