About this asset

This fine metallic scratch PBR texture provides a realistic brushed finish for industrial surfaces, rendered in a 2K resolution. This procedural texture set captures the intricate detail of fine, multidirectional metallic abrasions. The surface appearance is characterised by high-frequency micro-scratches that suggest a worn or brushed metal finish. The asset includes essential PBR maps—albedo, normal, and opacity—allowing for precise control over reflectivity and surface depth in rendering engines. Its monochromatic grey and black palette ensures versatility, making it suitable for simulating aged stainless steel, aluminium, or other polished metallic surfaces. The pattern is designed for uniformity, providing a consistent aesthetic that avoids repetitive visual artefacts across large-scale architectural surfaces.

The download is a 21.1 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal and opacity maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.

Incorporate this 2K PBR material into your rendering workflow by assigning the albedo, normal, and opacity maps to the corresponding channels of your material editor. The tileable nature of the maps allows for easy scaling across large geometry without visible seams. Adjust the normal map intensity to modulate the depth of the scratches, ensuring they align with the desired level of surface wear in your project. This texture is ideal for adding realism to hard-surface assets.

Apply this scratch texture to metal panelling, kitchen appliances, or industrial furniture to introduce subtle signs of use and realism. It is particularly effective for architectural visualisations that require a lived-in, contemporary aesthetic. Professionals often use these maps to break up overly perfect reflections on stainless steel surfaces in hospitality and residential interior design. By layering this texture, you can achieve a sophisticated, authentic look that pairs well with modern minimalist furniture and high-tech industrial lighting fixtures.
