    How durable will this be, though? I have lots of kids and daily traffic in the house, especially the kitchen. I need something durable.

    Allison K I have been using my kitchen full speed with kids for 3 weeks and no problems at all. I asked a friend who also used the product about a year ago before moving forward, and she says hers is still perfect!

    The white laminate counters in my kitchen, there when I bought my place, are in great shape - amazing as they are the original countertops 1980. The problem is the seam at the top and bottom of the 1" front edge. Would this or any other paint cover the edge seams and counter top evenly? Thanks in advance.
