Selected
vertically brushed
This refers to vertical brushing of the brick's surface, not to grooves as such. It promotes drying as rain flows down the face more easily.

Brushing the face promotes quicker drying of the brick. When the brick has partially set, a steel brush is used to roughen the surface.

Striate means parallel grooves, probably best.
