What is the difference between Terrastone Original, Terrastone Fine and Terrastone Rustique?

Terrastone original, Terrastone original fine and Terrastone rustique differ mainly in their different proportions of the mineral mica (natural mica).

Terrastone original contains mica and therefore has a very lively appearance. The mica it contains (depending on how it is processed) creates the typical Terrastone surface and a particularly natural atmosphere thanks to its golden inclusions. 

Terrastone original fine contains no mica, making it particularly suitable for creating fine and smooth surfaces. Due to the absence of mica, the surface appears calmer than that of Terrastone original. The shades typical of Terrastone can still be created with it. 

Terrastone rustique has a slightly different formulation than Terrastone original, it contains more coarse materials and also more mica. It differs from the original products in the composition of the ingredients and the associated slightly longer processing time. Terrastone rustique is particularly good for creating rustic surfaces and surfaces that are reminiscent of travertine and other natural stone looks.
