Atlantis Granite And Marble on Apr 22, 2015Yes, stones can be honed (flat polished, no shine) or leathered at the quarry or at the mill on a large table that sweeps across the slab. This does create a lot of dust. Removing the shine in your home will create a mess that you don't want and will not be uniform . You could have the top removed, transported to the mill and then re-installed, However, that is very expensive. From a cost perspective, it would be best to sell the stone you have in your house and buy new granite. Note: Darker colors tend to show more of everythingHelpful Reply
