Notes
Use with well-annealed sheet within the recommended gauge range, following your rolling mill or press manufacturer's guidelines. Test reduction or pressure settings on scrap metal first to dial in texture depth before working on finished pieces. Keep the plate clean and lightly protected between uses to preserve crisp pattern detail over time.
