Polished concrete dining tables are designed to be highly scratch resistant, making them suitable for everyday family use. This guide explains how scratch resistance works, what causes surface marking and how to keep your table looking new long term.

Scratch Resistant Not Scratch Proof

High quality microcement systems are engineered to resist scratching, but no surface is completely scratch proof. Sharp objects and grit can mark any hard surface over time.

What Causes Surface Marks

Dragging ceramic dishes, metal ornaments and grit from the underside of decorative items are the most common causes of fine surface scratching.

How To Prevent Scratches

Use felt pads under ornaments and chairs, lift heavy objects rather than dragging them and wipe grit away before placing items on the surface.

Long Term Surface Protection

Periodic resealing refreshes surface protection and keeps scratch resistance high.
