D6-15231

This is the smooth one. Satin plain has no texture in it, so a mop clears the floor in a single pass and nothing collects in the grain. The trade is grip and dust, since it shows more of both than a textured face, so keep it off steps and out of the shower. Warm chestnut is a mid brown with red warmth, near brushbox. Six random faces are enough for a kitchen and dining run. Boxes hold five planks at 200 x 1000 mm, 1.00 m2, 20 kg. Glazed ceramic, 9 to 9.5 mm, water absorption 6 to 8 percent, indoor only.
