Stainless Steel Mirror Finish Sheet Price
Colored mirror stainless steel sheets combine 8K mirror polishing with advanced PVD coloring technology, resulting in a material that offers high reflectivity, vibrant colors, and excellent durability. Due to their complex processing and premium appearance, they are widely used in high-end architectural and decorative applications, which also explains their higher price compared to standard stainless steel sheets.
- Description
Colored mirror stainless steel sheets (8K mirror with color coating) are premium decorative materials widely used in architecture and interior design. Their price is higher than standard stainless steel due to complex surface processing and additional coating technologies.
What Is Colored Mirror Stainless Steel?
-
Based on 8K mirror polished stainless steel
-
Surface is further treated to achieve gold, black, rose gold, blue, bronze, and other colors
-
Combines mirror reflectivity with decorative color effects
Processing Technology
The production of colored mirror stainless steel involves multiple advanced processes:
1. Base Mirror Finish (8K Polishing)
-
Stainless steel sheet (commonly 304 or 316) is polished to mirror level
-
Multi-stage grinding and buffing ensure high reflectivity and smoothness
2. Coloring Process (PVD Coating)
The most common method is PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition):
-
Metal compounds (such as titanium or chromium) are vaporized in a vacuum
-
Deposited onto the mirror surface as a thin, uniform coating
-
Produces stable colors like:
-
Gold (TiN)
-
Black (TiAlN)
-
Rose gold (Ti + alloy mix)
-
Advantages:
-
Strong adhesion
-
Fade-resistant
-
Environmentally friendly (no chemical dyes)
3. Anti-Fingerprint / Protective Coating
-
Optional nano-coating applied
-
Improves smudge resistance and durability
-
Enhances surface lifespan in high-touch environments
