Countertop Finishes.
Polished Countetops:
This common finishing technique brings out the beauty of stone counter tops by reflecting their natural crystals. Progressively finer polishing heads are used to get a shiny surface. Limestone, marble, granite & travertine counter tops are commonly polished.
Honed Countertops:
Honed flooring finishes are created by stopping before the last polishing stage. This allows for a softer, flat matte appearance that shows fewer scratches, and is easy to maintain. Marble, and limestone do well with this type of finish.
Flamed Countertops:
The surface of the stone countertop is heated and then rapidly cooled, causing the stone to chip and pop and leaving behind an unrefined, rough texture. This type of finish is most often seen on granite countertops where slip-resistance is desired.
