Because of the nature of these components the color of the surface will tend to darken over time. The color is not only   on the surface of the material but goes all the way through the product, so if damaged, it can be repaired.     Over time the surface of the material will form a seasoned look that is a characteristic of the material. Areas of heavy use will   form a deeper luster. It is also possible that there will be slight tonal difference that are natural and should be expected. In   other words certain areas of a top may look slightly darker or lighter based upon the size of the project and the sheets used.   The surface texture and level varies with this material. There is more texture when first installed, than over time it will become   smoother and develop more luster. The product may have a slight unevenness on locations of the top; this is because the   product is pressed, not molded, into sheets.   All of these components due not take away from the beauty of the countertop, but instead add a uniqueness to the material.   CLICK HERE - To receive a quote on a PaperStone™ countertop project
