Can you paint grantie?
Hi Maria. You can paint granite. It is best to use an epoxy paint. The surface will need to be roughed up with sandpaper. If it's a good granite and not a thin layer over plywood, consider having it repolished instead of painting. Good luck!
What is grantie? Are you talking about granite? Yes you can paint anything, but granite is a property value product. If you paint it you will ruin it, plus it will eventually get scratched and peel. Please think it through.
