At that price they won't be calibrated, which with tiles of this nature is incredibly important.

Also absolute Black granite will show every mark, hair, footprint....everything.

Not a great choice for anything that will be walked on.

Can I but in and ask if the galaxy black granite shows marks as much? I fancied that for our main bathroom, but with three messy children who use it, I'm not so sure now!

Galaxy has more of grain and a fleck so it disguises marks a little better.

But it's still a polished black granite, so will require regular cleaning to keep it looking nice and shiny.

The heavier a grain in the stone the less it shows marks, also the lighter colours show less as they tend to be grained and light.

Thanks - will remember that when we start to look for tiles after Christmas. Currently at the ideas brewing stage

missus has said she will clean them but i'm sure shes going to get fed up doing that every minute, we have three young children aswell. perhaps a white or cream to match the corian worktops might be better...
