All floors will be unique as the final finish will depend on the concrete mix used when the floor was initially poured. Most floors will achieve a salt and pepper or cream finish; however, some may expose more aggregate. No matter the finish, the floor will be smooth, reflective and be easy-to-maintain thanks to Hiper 3.
