Brilliance

Brilliance describes the visual impression created by the special reflective properties of a high-gloss and haze-free surface. This property is characterized by exceptional light reflection, resulting in a clear and vibrant shine. A brilliant surface reflects light in a way that conveys a high degree of clarity and depth, making it particularly radiant and appealing.

The degree of brilliance is strongly influenced by the quality of the surface finish. A flawless finish without streaks or irregularities allows light to reflect unhindered, resulting in a particularly shiny and aesthetically pleasing appearance. This type of brilliance is often desired in high-end products such as luxury motor vehicles, premium furniture or precision engineering, where optical perfection and visual impact play a significant role.

Achieving brilliance requires precise workmanship and high-quality materials to ensure that the surface reflects light rays in the desired way and provides a shiny, flawless finish.
