How will bending affect the anodized or painted finish on a material?
When thinner material is pre-finished, bending generally has little effect. Any slight crazing at the corner is generally imperceptible. Other than a few standard anodized colors, thicker material (.090+) is not available in pre-finished anodized or paint. In most cases, thicker material needs to be post-anodized or painted, which can help slightly reduce the appearance of crazing along the corners.
