English term or phrase: linish
The XX fireplace is made out of brushed stainless steel (grade 304) with a horizontal linish.

The product is a portable fireplace. Dict.leo.org suggests 'bandschleifen' for 'to linish'. And I see that 'Bandschliff' is used in combination with 'Edelstahl'. But I'd like to make sure that 'Edelstahl mit horizontalem Bandschliff' would be acceptable as a translation here. What do you think?

Thank you in advance!

(horizontaler) Schliff
Explanation:
Mir sind die Begriffe "mirror polished" für auf Spiegelglanz hin polierten Edelstahl und "linished" für gebürsteten Edelstahl geläufig. Das "horizontal linish" gibt meines Erachtens nur an, dass der Bürstenschliff in horizontaler Richtung erfolgte.
