Glossy finish: Chic and shine

If you are looking for a more luxurious ambience, the glossy finish is an excellent choice. It adds a sophisticated and brilliant touch, especially when used as a backsplash or in a bathroom. It goes particularly well with equally polished countertops for a consistent look. Floor application: Although the glossy finish can be used on the floor, it tends to make dirt and footprints more visible. It is also important to ensure that the surface remains dry to prevent slippage, which makes it less suitable for wet rooms. Wall application: The glossy finish is perfect for shower walls and kitchen backsplashes thanks to its easy maintenance and clean, shiny appearance. It brings a chic and bright effect to your space.
