teksturowanie
Explanation:
There are a few clues that this is texture (tekstura:
1) Two black surfaces can be made to appear differently to the eye because their different textures makes light reflect differently from them.
2) "polishing or structuring the respective mold surfaces" refers to modifications of the surfaces of the molds used to make the tires in terms of smoothness and "structure" (i.e., texture). Different texture, or lack thereof, will give the tire surfaces different appearances.
