Known to me as PolyMetal. I experimented with some scraps



These were sheared rolled and braked on a tool with an 18" lever arm. The brake was unsuccessful because it ruptured the outside skin. A bead roller might be more successful. The white stripe is an H-channel to join two pieces.

I don't think you'd get compound curves out of it. A heat gun might be hard to focus.
