Product catalog summary

Introduction to Angel Hair Stainless Steel
Angel Hair is a specialized metal polish developed by Zahner to reduce the high reflectivity of standard stainless steel finishes. This patented process creates a fine grain on the metal surface, resulting in a smooth and uniform light-diffusion finish ideal for architectural applications.

Development and Functionality
Initially created as a custom solution for projects with architect Frank Gehry, Angel Hair addresses the issues of heat and glare caused by reflective stainless steel. It scatters light effectively while maintaining the metal's reflective qualities, making it suitable for various metal alloys.

Durability and Maintenance
Angel Hair stainless steel is suitable for both interior and exterior use. It is designed for longevity and ease of maintenance. If damaged, the surface can be easily repaired by Zahner technicians using a specialized polishing system.

Comparison with Other Finishes
While other manufacturers offer similar finishes like "vibration-finish," Angel Hair stands out due to its patented non-directional technology, which ensures a uniform appearance without visible patterns or marks.
