Acero and Oxidado vs. Metallo

This page illustrates the difference between the natural lacquered steel look of Acero S-55 and Oxidado S-52 vs. the Metallo S-57 "finished" look. The Acero and Oxidado finishes provide a raw industrial look while the Metallo gives a more subtle version of the metallic effect.

Notice here that the Acero finish leaves the colorations of the welds and fabrication marks. The metal is protected by a clear lacquer

With the Metallo finish, you get the same coloration except, the finish covers the welds and fabrication marks for a clean metallic look
