POLISHED FINISH

 Want to make a statement with a surface that’s all about shine and style? Polished Mineral Surfaces deliver that elegant, high-gloss look you often see in fancy, modern spaces. And when you imagine how light bounces off a glossy surface, you’ll understand the sophisticated and glamorous feel a polished finish brings to countertops and walls.

The way polished mineral surfaces reflect light can really change a room. It can make smaller areas feel much bigger and brighter, which is great if you want to open up a space. Plus, the shine acts like a mirror, reflecting other design elements and adding a cool, dynamic touch to your overall look. Imagine your kitchen with polished porcelain countertops that gleam under the lights, or a living room wall with a high gloss surface that adds depth and visual interest.

Due to their luxurious look and ease of maintenance, polished mineral surfaces are a popular choice for many homes and businesses. Specifically, for kitchen and bathroom countertops and backsplashes, a high gloss finish means a smooth surface that’s simple to wipe clean after spills. Additionally, for walls in dining rooms or lobbies, reflective polished surfaces can create a memorable and impressive look.
