Bead Blasted vs Brushed Finish — I’m Starting to Prefer Brushed

I used to love bead blasted anodized parts.

But after using them long term:

• fingerprints show up everywhere
• dark colors age badly
• edge wear becomes super obvious

Now I honestly prefer brushed finishes:

• feels more “industrial”
• hides wear better
• looks more consistent over time

Especially on silver parts.
