If you're looking to give your metal tile a more finished look, you can bend the edges using a process called edge-rolling. This technique can be used on both square and rectangle tiles, and is relatively simple to do. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to edge-roll metal tile:
1. Begin by setting up your work area. You'll need a sturdy table or workbench to support the tile, as well as a mallet or hammer. If you're working with square tiles, you'll also need a set of clamps to hold the tile in place while you work.
2. Place the first tile upside down on the table or workbench, making sure that one of the long sides is facing up. If you're working with square tiles, clamp them into place so they don't move around while you're working.
3. With one hand, hold the mallet or hammer near the center of the long side of the tile. With your other hand, grab hold of the end of the tile and start to bend it upwards towards you, keeping your grip close to the end of the metal.
4. As you start to bent the metal, it will naturally want to curl back down towards the table or workbench - use your free hand
