Does anyone know a website that shows photographs of turned aluminum along

I have a requirement for a cylindrical part but I don't know how to call-out
surface smoothness. I'm only interested in a mechanical treatment. I want a
"shiny" finish but not a diamond-turned mirror finish. Is "shiny" an
appropriate call-out to a machinist?






Here a site that gives some info:
