anetha 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2009 Thanks for the tip! I have a related question - We are renovating our old place, and the contractor offered to "polish" the solid surface kitchen topic. I am not sure if solid surface kitchen top can be polished like granite top. Can you please share what it means to "polish" solid surface kitchen top - is it only washing and de-greasing or anything else? thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smercey 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2010 i just finished renovating my place. my kitchen top's surface is in black. however it looks very dull, even though it's a newly renovated place. don't think i'll ask my ID to polish it 'cos too much hassle. is there anything i can do to give it a new GLOSS look by DIY method? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
