In addition to giving people unique natural artistic visual effects through natural textures, stone can also create ever-changing visual feelings through various surface processing methods. Such rich changes are also one of the charms of stone. Today, let's take a look at the smooth processing method of stone surface with the editor of FABULOUS Group.
Tumble: The surface is smooth or slightly rough, and the corners are smooth and broken. There are several ways to achieve the tumbling effect. 20mm bricks can be rolled in the machine, 3cm bricks can also be rolled and then split into two bricks. Marble and limestone are the preferred materials for tumbling.
Brushing: The surface is old. The treatment process is to scrub the surface of the stone to imitate the natural abrasion effect of the stone.
Polishing: The surface has high gloss. Polishing may last a long time or not, depending on the type of stone. Granite, Dali and limestone are usually polished and require different maintenance to maintain their luster.
Polished: The polished surface looks "soft" with obvious scratches and does not require too much care. Marble, limestone and slate are suitable for polishing.
Fire: The surface is rough. This kind of surface is mainly used indoors, such as floors or as decorative surfaces in commercial buildings, and the labor cost is relatively high. After high temperature heating, rapid cooling forms a fired surface. The fire surface is generally granite.
Cracking: The surface is rough, but not as rough as fire. This surface treatment is usually cut by hand or chiseled in a mine to expose the natural cracked surface of the stone. This surface treatment is mainly used for slate.
Pickling: There are small corrosion marks on the surface. The pickled surface has fewer scratches and the appearance is more pristine than the polished surface. Most stones can be pickled, but the most common are marble and limestone. Pickling is also a way to soften the luster of granite.
Chop axe: The surface is not smooth. After the initial cutting, the stone is further processed to eliminate obvious saw marks, but the effect cannot reach the effect after polishing. Granite, marble and limestone can be treated in this way, usually in the case of customization.
