Metal Finish Options

We provide powder coat or patina finishes for projects. Powder coat is a polyester/epoxy base that is applied to metal and then cured under heat. It is durable and provides an overall consistent finish, ideal for heavy traffic locations such as doors, railings, washrooms, and kitchens. Patina finishes are hand-applied over mild steel which allows the natural texture and colour variation of the base steel to show through. Recommended uses for patina metal are interior cladding, feature walls or fireplaces to add a touch of sleek industrial aesthetic, and metal furniture accents for looks that vary from bold and edgy to refined and sophisticated.

  • Our finish samples are crafted on either steel or aluminum, depending on the specific finish and its application. Each sample is meticulously prepared using either a durable powder coat or a hand-applied patina, showcasing the quality and attention to detail that Forge 53° is known for. Whether you're looking for the sleek, consistent look of a powder coat or the unique, textured character of a patina, our samples provide an accurate representation of the final product you'll receive.

  • We offer our finish samples in two convenient sizes: small (3" x 2") and large (8" x 10"). Each sample is carefully packaged and protected to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. We ship across North America, with most orders dispatched within 10-12 days, so you can evaluate your options and make your project decisions with confidence.

  • Forge 53° provides customization options to meet your unique project needs. Whether you're looking for a different material, finish, or size, we can tailor our samples to your specific requirements.

 Due to the nature of the materials we use, the product you receive may vary from samples or from projects completed at an earlier date. If your project requires a specialty finish our designers will try to match and confirm finishes before production commences. We will make our best effort to communicate any significant variances from samples; however, depending on the steel character, powder coat, or hand-applied finish the product you receive may vary from a sample or photo.
