Available Stone Effect Paint Finishes

Four Unique Authentic Stone Effect Finishes

Our Buff 04 stone effect paint is available in four hand-blended finishes, each offering a unique take on the natural beauty of stone:

  • SIMPLY STONE™ : Textured and infused with ground stone, delivering a classic matte stone finish that complements traditional and modern designs..
  • STONE FLECKS™ : Builds on Simply Stone™ with added stone flecks for a more naturally speckled, textured appearance.
  • ANTIQUED STONE™ : Textured with ground stone and larger stone flecks for a rustic, aged effect reminiscent of acid etched stonework.
  • SMOOTH STONE™ : Features only stone flecks for a smoother, less textured matte finish, offering a lighter, more uniform appearance.

These finishes are ideal for recreating the soft texture and authentic colouration of Yorkstone and other warm, buff-toned stones.
