Tile floor refinishing offers more than just solid colors. With the right techniques and NAPCO’s Semi-Gloss Tile Floor Coating, professional refinishers can create stunning faux finishes that add depth, texture, and uniqueness to any project. Watch our video to learn more.

 

If you’re looking to offer your clients more than just a standard tile refinishing job, here are four effects that will set your work apart.

1. Flint-Stone with Semi-Gloss Tile Floor Clear

For a real stone-like finish, apply Flint-Stone coating to the floor first, then top it with Semi-Gloss Tile Floor Clear.

This combination enhances durability while providing a natural, high-end look that homeowners and commercial clients love.

2. Painted Grout Lines for Added Realism

Want to add dimension and authenticity to a refinished tile floor?

Once the floor has been refinished, painting the grout lines can make the tiles stand out, creating a more realistic, detailed look. This simple technique enhances the appearance of the flooring without additional prep work.

 

3. Metallic Effects for a Modern Touch

For a high-end, customized look, mix a metallic pigment into Semi-Gloss Tile Floor Clear and spray a coat over either a solid color or Flint-Stone.

This technique adds a slight shimmer and a modern aesthetic that appeals to clients looking for a unique finish.

 

4. Accent Colors for a Textured Look

Using a rag or sponge, apply an accent color in a semi-random pattern, then spray a very light coat of either the base color or Semi-Gloss Tile Floor Clear over the top.

This technique creates a subtle, layered effect that mimics the variations found in natural stone or aged tile.
