There *is* a 'machinist's reference chart' for metal finishes (at least having
to do with the degree of polishing applied to metals, during manufacture of
various items), but it's actually a 'chip chart' of real metal samples. (I
don't have one; I just worked with it years ago.) I have to assume that there's
a photographic reference chart of various metals on the web *somewhere*; we'll
just have to keep looking! ;-)
