304 Stainless Steel type of finish
++++
I would like to know what a #2 finish on 304 stainless steel looks
like or what grit number it is.

First of all, a description of a 2B finish is not possible. You
must see the surface appearance and that is determined by the metal
making process. No grit can match that finish. Meaning, that the mill
determines the finish or surface appearance of the metal by the
number of rolls, passes, and/or pressure that is applied to the metal
in the rolling process. It is possible to get close to the finish via
a similar process using a hand held power buffer and a wheel that
will produce the same gain appearance.
