How do you resurface a counter top?
have been looking into a number of counter top resurfacing products from inexpensive Rust-Oleum counter top resurfacing kit $22...to Leggari's which is around $300 an epoxy kit which is more than I want to spend but love the look. Has anyone used either of these or can recommend another. I am looking for an industrial look so have even considered the cement "feather finish" but that seems like it will be more mess and involvement than I want to do. Please help

Hi, Sandy!
I've used both the Daich and Giani kits. The Daich kits create the look of stone and the Giani kits create the look of marble or granite. They are easy to use, hold up really well and look amazing! I hope this helps!

That concrete skim coat feather finish is a great solution, it's durable and really not as messy as it may seem. Any kit or resurfacing product is going to take some elbow grease involvement.
Hello Sandy,
Have you looked at the Contact range?. I must admit , I like a Formica type finish myself.
