How do I update limestone counter tops?
My kitchen counter tops and backsplashes are limestone. I am guessing they are approximately 40 years old. We bought the house about 4 years ago. I really don’t like them. However, I don’t want to rip them out and trash them because I figure they may have been on the pricey side to install. To redo them calls for wet sanding then sealing, but I end up with the same thing. Basically, I was wondering if there is a process to change the color and appearance of them.

Rustoleum, Daich, or Giani countertop paint kits,
The countertop paint kits are epoxy based and made for countertops. Daich and Giani also are mineral based so they look and wear like stone.
Here is a Hometalk project where someone painted their countertop. Maybe that will and they could let you know how well it has held up.
