I have blah laminate kitchen counter tops. I would like easier or simple ideas on how to bring them up to date and make them look beautiful. My cabinets will be a Medium Gray or they could end up white. I'm a retired older woman who wants to do this on my own. So.. No Cement projects please 😳
Thank you all n advance for your help!

Theres a product out on the market, I think they sell it at homedpot and lower. Its specifically to paint formica counter tops. Ive seen them finished with this product. It looks wonderful !!!
I used Ardex Feather Finish floor leveler for a faux concrete counter. I live the look. It was easy-ish to use and not expensive. Ardex says it bonds to laminate. I saw this on Hometalk. Search it and see how others liked it.
Rust-Oleum makes an easy DIY kit to change countertop laminates to the look of granite. There are several color combinations that would match pretty much any color your cabinets are. My son did his island with the kit which updated the whole kitchen. Lovely finished product!
Rustoleum Countertop Paint. You will still have to clean, and sand, and clean again before using the Rustoleum. And you will still need to seal your countertops with strong, clear, acrylic sealer. Let it dry overnight between all coats.
