Fingerprint visibility depends on handling and viewing conditions. A fair comparison needs a consistent procedure and clear endpoint.
A flat material sample does not represent every feature of a formed component. Bends change access and reflection during application and inspection.
A visible mark may be removable residue or a change in the finish. The distinction determines the next step.
A decorative PVD finish is part of the substrate presented to the coating. Approval for bare stainless steel does not automatically cover it.

Anodized aluminium is not equivalent to bare aluminium. The existing finish and its intended use should guide compatibility review.
Clear treatments can make sample orientation difficult to identify later. The treated face should remain traceable without touching or altering it.
Installed fittings can block parts of the treatment area. The evaluation should reflect the real assembly and any agreed exclusions.
A surface coating does not justify ignoring the stainless steel's cleaning restrictions. The metal and coating requirements must both be considered.
A cleanability trial should use the maintenance method planned for the installation. Changing the cloth can change the practical experience.
Off-site treatment can reach areas later used for bonding, sealing or assembly. Those areas require explicit scope decisions.
A tool-contact mark may involve deposited material, a scratch or damage to the existing finish. These require different responses.
Different areas of a facade can experience different wetting and contamination patterns. A single accessible sample may not represent the whole installation.
