Ed. note: We're pretty sure whatever chart/definition you want is already on this website, Stanley, since hundreds of questions on surface finishing have been asked and answered and many readers have posted info here about various charts, definitions, and comparison. Use the search engine with whatever terms you're trying to understand or compare. Thanks!
