Sheet Metal of Kitchen Counters
Using Perforated Metal for countertops in bars and restaurants has been around for centuries. Put on all of the protective wear before handling sheet metal. Sheet metal can be razor sharp at the edges, and if cut, chips can fly in the face.
Now, many home owners are using it in their own kitchens as countertops. This includes protective gloves, a protective apron and a face shield. Hammer the edges of the sheet metal down to the desired look, being cautious of the razor sharp corners. Stainless and copper sheet metal are generally more commonly used than zinc sheet metal, but recently that has started to change.
The look of sheet metal deviates from the norm, and it's fairly durable. Zinc sheet metal is now being used more and more for it's unique look and it's ability to be shaped and molded.
There are three types of sheet metal that are used for countertops: zinc, copper and stainless. Apply the contact cement to the kitchen counter. Contact cement adheres immediately, so using wax paper on top is recommended. Use the steel wool to sand down and buff the countertop. The buffing can be done by hand, but if a machine is used, be cautious of flying metal scraps. Cut the wax paper and lay it on top of the contact cement. Place the sheet metal on top of the wax paper and position it properly.
Pull the wax paper out from under the sheet metal once the sheet is in place.
