The #2B is a lustrous (but not mirrored) finish. #2B is also known as “mill finish” because it describes the unpolished state of the cold rolled material straight from the producing mill. While products with a #2B finish typically exhibit some luster, they are not reflective or mirrored in any way. This finish is typical for very practical applications where the appearance of the metal is not a factor.
