the brushed finish is pretty but every little thing on earth messes it up. you can't touch it with anything and fixing it your self is pretty much a no go.
if the clear wrap holds up then it might be the answer! We used clear gloss wrap on this one. we did a test panel with the satin wrap and it was crazy. Dead flat brushed aluminum. Not what i wanted but it would look killer

Well I hear some people a bit offended if you say aluminum is hard to take care of and others say it is hard to keep looking nice.
I had wondered "why not clear coat it?" Of course paint has its pros and cones. I also wondered why not put a wax coating on it, but wax-on step may go better than the wax-off step. I have waxed my polished aluminum parts, but never brushed. I like the wrap idea.
