About this asset

Scratched Galvanised Steel Substance Material 007 is a high-fidelity procedural texture for Substance 3D, featuring a realistic weathered finish. This procedural material reproduces the aesthetic of galvanised steel with a distinct spangled crystalline structure. The surface is heavily worked, featuring a complex network of fine, multi-directional surface scratches that vary in intensity and depth. The material exhibits a characteristic grey-to-charcoal metallic tone, with controlled specular highlights that respond accurately to light. As a parametric graph, it allows for the adjustment of the scratch density and the underlying metal patination, ensuring that the visual complexity remains consistent across large surfaces without any visible pattern repetition or tiling artifacts.

The download is a 348 KB file containing a Substance (.sbsar) material that opens in Substance 3D Player, Sampler and Painter and in renderers with Substance support.

Designed for use within Substance 3D and compatible host applications, this.sbsar file functions as a fully parametric texture. Professionals can load the file to dynamically adjust surface parameters such as scratch depth, wear intensity, and metallic roughness before exporting maps for standard PBR workflows. Because it is procedural, users can scale the output to any resolution required for their specific render engine, ensuring high fidelity for both close-up product shots and large-scale architectural environmental visualisations.

This material is suitable for industrial design, architectural visualisation, and interior projects requiring authentic metallic finishes. It is ideal for exterior cladding, structural steel elements, or urban furniture where a worn, tactile quality is desired. Architects and visualisers frequently use this texture to add realism to metallic surfaces in residential or commercial settings. It pairs well with concrete, glass, and timber, providing a robust contrast for modern or industrial-themed interiors.
