Wondering if there is a way to change the color/look of a formica countertop in bathroom?

If it's wood, clean it well then lightly sand so the paint will adhere. Clean off the sanding dust then prime and paint it. I hope that helps. Wishing you the best.

Do you want to change fabric color?
Fabric or wood?
Depends if it's fabric or wood.

Painting over wood or already painted surface is simple as long as the finish is in good condition first.
