1. Mounting a brush in a mill head and sweeping across the surface.
2. Use same brush but do not sweep, come down on sheet every few inches and make consistent pattern.
3. 400 or 600 grit brushed on surface.
4. Bead blast.
5. Chemical dip.
Involve a .057 sheet of stainless.
I also want to cut 26 slots .090-.100" wide and 1.5" long. I have not checked anywhere yet. But would a 3/32 bit do this or will I be breaking half a dozen cutters before the job is done. This would be a grill cover for a fan. Another way is to cut out a larger hole and cover it with a custom grill, with one screw in each of four corners.
I got the sheet at Alan Steel from a pile of stuff that probably came out of a restaurant kitchen. Probably sitting there for at least 3-4 years.
For any of the locals who don't know about Alan Steel in Redwood City. Get knowledgeable. I asked the owner if I could take some pictures and post them here. He asked me not to do that because he doesn't want to advertise. Local business is plenty.
Thank you for any advice.
