Giani Countertop Paint Kit.
There is a company that makes kits that allows you to paint your counter tops to look like granite. Here is the link to their page. https://www.gianigranite.com
I have not used it but it might be an option for you.
Home Depot has a kit, made for laminate counters. You can change the color also. I'm not sure about it looking like granite. My brother and Sil did it in their home and it looks great
I asked at Home Depot as well as Lowe's--they said they used to carry kits, but don't anymore.
Amazon has the kits. My daughter got her's from there.
I used one of the kits to make the counter top look granite and it looks awesome!
I was a bit timid about getting started as I had never attempted to do anything this major before. Once I got started there was no stopping me and I love the results. It truly does look like I had my counter top replaced with a granite top.
Roll up your sleeves and give it a try. You'll be glad you did. The company does have step-by-step videos on their web page that you can watch as many times as necessary.
