2. Remember that sample chips will not match exactly what is available. You should choose the actual granite slab yourself. Also remember that every slab is different and if you require more than one granite slab, make sure the slabs are from the same quarry batch. Different granite quarry batches will vary in hue for the same granite type. You do not want slabs from different batches were used because they will not match.
