I recently had a new granite top (Nero Impala) installed and the front edges
and inside the sink cut-outs look much duller than the top. Why is that?
How can I make it all shine the same?
The installer said it would shine the same after it all dries out. He was
full of sh*t.

it is tough to find good (honest) help these days.

any info on how to make it all look the same would be appreciated.

the installer didnt polish it , it takes diamond imbedded wheels to do
it, a big job.

Search for stone sites, there are a couple.

Yep. Unpolished granite looks very dull - it's what you'll see in
monuments, statues, etc. There's also a "matte" finish that's halfway
between polished and unpolished, but presumably if he'd gone to the
trouble of doing that, he'd have mentioned it.
