Zinc is a soft metal that reacts to its environment. Therefore, small dents are normal and it will form a mottled appearance as it reacts with water, fingerprints and other substances. Zinc comes from the mill as a silver color similar to stainless steel. As it reacts you will see a range of colors from white to charcoal. The general color you end up with is a soft, pewter-like gray that is ever changing.
