A polished finish produces a surface which is smooth and therefore easy to clean. The shiny look of polished tiles means that colours appear brighter, with black and white in particular having a mirror like appearance when polished. Moisture and condensation can be wiped from the surface of polished tiles in bathrooms without causing any permanent damage. Likewise in kitchens grease and dirt can be removed from the sleek surface with ease. Polished tiles are installed in clothes shops; not only will they remain looking brand new with regular cleaning but it is also easy to move racks of clothing and displays across the smooth surface.
