Brushed Chrome Finish

We have a request for a metal ( cold rolled steel) fixture to have a BRUSHED CHROME finish. How is this done and is there an additional cost over bright chrome plating?

Thank you,

You will need to brush the part before plating. After brushing, just perform a normal plating, you will have a brushed finish. Compare to the polished component, there should not be any difference on the cost.
