Granite:
a hard surface igneous rock formation of visibility crystalline texture formed essentially
of quartz and orthoclise or microcline. The characteristics are firmness and endurance. The typical finishes
for granite are:
-
Polished (glossy surface which brings out the full color and character of the granite),
-
Honed (a satin smooth surface with little or no gloss), and
-
Thermal or Flamed (rough surface produced by application of high temperature flame to the surface).
Other Finishes:
Sand Blasted:
matte textured surface finish with no gloss; finished by application of a steady
flow of sand and water pressure.
Bush-Hammered:
a mechanical process which produces textured surface; textures vary from
subtle to rough.
