CUSTOM STONE FINISHES

 

BRUSHED FINISHES

 

Brushed Finishes are popular because of their unique texture and feel. They are commonly referred to as 'Leather Finish'.

 

The finish is created when we use abrasive brushes and our unique Italian weighted machinery.

 

Perfect Granite Solutions is the most requested company in Orange County for achieving these unique and amazing finishes.

 

BRUSHED SOAP STONE TEXTURE

 

Brushed Soap Stone makes up some of the most of the aggressive textures available,  highly recommended for barbeques and wherever a dark green color is desired.

 

PGS  BRUSHED QUARTZITE

 

Most quartzites are extremely hard therefore it produces a lighter texture often called  the Satin Finish. Most Quartzites are porous and need to be sealed very well, especially on countertops.

 

TEXTURED FINISHES

 

Here we are producing a heavier textured finish for a lime stone slab being used for a large fireplace.

 

 

MATCHBOOK FINISH

 

Matchbook finish on a white Calcutta marble. PGS refinished and polished the back side of the slab to create this one of a kind look. 

 

CUSTOM LEATHER FINISH

 

This Azul granite barbeque was previously polished but the customer did not like the formal or daily dirt appearance. PGS custom leathered it at their home.

 

Perfect Granite Solutions has the experience and skills to create a great finish on Granite already installed.

HONING

 

Honing is the process of removing the factory polish.  Honing produces a less formal appearance while minimizes the reflection of surrounding windows and lights. It works exceptionally  well on almost all granite and marble. It feels smooth to the touch while maintaining the stones natural beauty,color and grain.

In the pictures above the homeowner wanted a less reflective surface on their counters so they opted to have it honed.  Notice how the reflection was eliminated in the last photo but still maintains the natural grain of the marble.

 

Honed white marble is an excellent option for kitchen and bath counters. It minimizes the appearance of etching and is easy to clean with PGS recommended products. 

 

This slab was custom honed at PGS. It's called 'Blizzard' and was purchased at AZT. The finish and color was striking to look at and feel. We highly recommend this stone where black and white veins are desired.

 

Personally we at Perfect Granite Solutions think all exterior counters should be brushed or honed.

 

Exposure to exterior elements can cause some polished finishes to wear prematurely. Texturing the surface makes the surface impervious to the elements giving the stone a long lasting natural appearance.
