Hello, I wonder what's the difference between a technical surface and an aestethic surface, the only thing I found was:

"The technology has encompassed two main fields. Either creating aesthetic (class A surfaces) that also perform a function; for example, car bodies and consumer product outer forms, or technical surfaces for components such as gas turbine blades and other fluid dynamic engineering components."

Can someone explain in a short version?

Shorter than what you already found? AFAIK a technical surface is a surface that has a purpose but doesn't need to be appealing or beautiful. The body of a car serves a technical (aerodynamic) purpose, but also aesthetic because it needs to be "beautiful"
