Thornton Moor can be laid as supplied or sealed with a preparatory product. If left natural it will mellow and age gracefully over time. The colour will warm as it ages to a rich buff brown, to a varying degree due to factors such as its environmental location. If sealed it will prolong the weathering process by holding back the micro-organisms and staining that can occur.
