1 Irish Beetle Finish
A finish given to linen fabrics which produces a soft, full, thready feel with glossy surface. The cloth remains fresh and bright much longer than fabrics finished by any other method. No filling mixtures, except a little starch, is used, so that the finish is a lasting one and is not affected by heat or cold, or by dry or damp atmosphere. The cloth is wound on iron or wooden beams and is subjected to a rapid succession of elastic blows from a series of hammers. After beetling a gloss is given to the fabric by calendering.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Irish Beetle Finish
