Black Galaxy Granite. Anyone Still Use it?
Comments (5)None of my business and this is not what you are asking and you probably love it so ignore my comment. Would you consider getting rid of that wall paper border above your cabinets? Your backsplash, flooring, counters, and DR paint colours are all colours of now - and everything flows really nicely. You've done a great job of keeping the Baltic Brown current (I thing it looks great in your space) and putting the Black Galaxy on the peninsula would be cool. I'm just wondering though , is that a black appliance by the peninsula? Would it clash? I can't tell what that is. The green above your cabinets is feeling really heavy. The green around the archway is better and maybe without the border it would be ok. It's just feeling an dlooking really 80"s. Sorry....See MoreWhite Galaxy granite -- hardness and upkeep?
Comments (3)We have been looking for months at white granite - many varieties, and many names. Very few, we have found, of the truly white granites - especially ones from India are resined. We were told by one place we visited that the reason whites are seldom resined is because the resin has a "yellowing" effect on the whiteness of the stone. I have no idea whether that is the truth or just a convenient answer from someone who wanted to sell a couple of slabs of granite. Hopefully some of the professionals on this forum can clarify. I wouldn't turn away from the whites, but whatever white stone you choose probably should be sealed multiple times and sealed thereafter whenever you see the stone darkening with moisture. White Galaxy is a gorgeous stone for sure!...See Morehas anyone used "Quikcrete" Gravel instead of granite in gritty mix?
Comments (11)hsw, I understand completely. Having no transportation makes getting these materials infinitely more difficult. Due to similar circumstances, I just paid $17.00 for 25lbs of grit. As for myself & many others I have read about, these 3 items can be hard to come by & you have to travel far & wide to get them. You have a lot of drive w/ no transpo ( no pun intended ). Another source I found was a sand & gravel company. " Haydite " ( expanded shale ) is another good substitute ( if you can find it in the right size ). What ever you get, I would be sure & rinse it thoroughly. Best of luck to you. Rob...See MoreHas anyone used Star Granite Interiors, Elberton, GA, for countertops?
Comments (0)We got prices from 2 fabricators on countertops for our new house and Star was thousands less than the competition (that our builder likes). We hope choosing them will be the right decision based on quality of fabrication and installation....See Morejuniork
