Hi ! I did this a couple of years ago . After much research I decided to go with Benjamin Moore's advance paint . About $40 for the gallon , but I only used less than half.I also used the primer that they recommend . I scuffed the counter with a sanding sponge , wiped it getting off all of the dust .
