Author: StonemongerSubject: Absolute Black: scaring and bleachingPosted: 01 Dec 2009 at 9:30pmMy question for you is, were the bottles from hard alcohol of some sort? A small percentage of wht is sold to us ad "Absolute Black" granite is actually a gray stone from India that is then dyed black for sale. This dye is alcohol soluble, a happy fact my company discovered when installing about 200 square feet in a high end country club's lounge as a bartop...The alcohol bleaches out the dye and leaves odd, translucent areas that you just can't seem to clean off!Luckily, we managed to browbeat our warehouse into reimbursing us the material and got the genuine article from elsewhere. Still cost us time and sweat and delays on other jobs.
