Review: Perfect For My Project - I bought this to place in a small cabinet that only had glass in the openings and I wanted to create more a sense of “privacy.” The silver was pretty but I wanted the sheets to match the pulls on the cabinet so I spray painted the panels black. I then cut them to size to fit the openings. They were thin but had great weight so I didn’t worry about them bending while I was cutting them and know they will hold up. I placed the original glass behind them to hold everything in place and it turned out even better than I had hoped. The product came in perfect condition and was easy to cut with tinsnips. The quality was truly top notch. I apologize that the photo is hard to see what I am so happy it’s how the end result turned out.
Review: Incorporated this into my front screen door - I had a custom cedar screen door made some years ago, and one of my neighbor's dogs decided to CHEW her way right through it to get into my house, leaving me with a HUGE hole in my screen, big enough to become a de facto cat door, and big enough for my dog to walk right through. So, in addition to no longer keeping bugs out, it also no longer kept my own dog IN. But after having my carpenter rebuild my dog, adding new screen and incorporating this metal mesh onto one side, well, I have a dependable and really pretty front screen door again. Worked perfect, only now, my cats are very disappointed the door is no longer easy to get in and out of...

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you purchase this material in a 2 ft. x 4 ft size?  I need it or a large air intake vent for heater.**
A: I have no idea about other sizes.  Hopefully a vendor will answer your question.  Good Luck on your project.  piglet

**Q: is it paintable?**
A: anything is paintable when you prime it first. Although I bet a 2 in 1 prime spray paint will do a good job. I would sand it down a little first to help to hold on to the paint with some grit.

**Q: How stiff is it? Will it hold its shape if I bend it into a napkin holder on a table? Or will it flatten back out under its own weight?**
A: I bent mine to cover an open area over a small electric base heater. It's held its shape well

**Q: what are the hole sizes? Would it work to keep mice out?**
A: I won't say it will definitely keep mice out but the small size of the holes and the sharp edges of the perforations probably will.  Good Luck.  piglet
