A method for manufacturing a brushed rolled product made from Al—Cu—Li alloy with a thickness of less than 12 mm, including the steps of producing a rolled product, solution heat treatment and quenching, stress relieving, optionally tempering, and brushing, wherein the brushing tool applies a force to the rolled product generating residual compressive stresses at the surface of the brushed product; eliminates a thickness of at least 9 μm from the surface of the non-brushed rolled product; wherein the brushing step comprises at least one circular brushing motion. The rolled product obtained by the method according to the invention is advantageous. The use of such a product in an aircraft fuselage panel is advantageous.
