(EstateNewsWire.com, August 02, 2012 ) Plymouth MI – When it comes to finishing new granite countertops the choice of style is according to décor’. There are several different finishes that create unique looks for different applications, including commercial, industrial and residential.
Surface Encounters (http://www.halfoffgranite.com/) installers explain the different finishes to their customers so they can choose the one that works best in their home. The polished finish is definitely the most popular, because it creates a high gloss to bring out the beauty and depth of the granite. A polished finish adds a pristine and elegant touch to a newly remodeled kitchen.
Honed finishes are another popular style for stone countertops. Honed finishes are smooth and have a lower luster than the polished finishes. Although this finish is less shimmering in appearance, it gives a home a slightly more relaxed and contemporary look, while still maintaining the elegant touch associated with granite countertops.
Another option is a flamed finish. Flamed finishes are created by exposing the granite countertop material to an extremely intense heat followed immediately by intense cooling. The exposure to the extreme temperature causes the granite to melt, and remold the minerals which make up the stone, resulting in a textured surface. Flamed finishes are most commonly used for industrial applications, but are also appropriate for garage work spaces, art studios and where ever one may desire a textured, slip-resistant surface.
Granite countertops are also available in brushed finishes, sometimes referred to as antiqued finishes, and are created when granite processors gently brush the granite’s surface developing a “worn-in” look throughout the stone. A brushed finish offers homeowners the most dramatic granite countertop surface.
