Hi Jan, here are some instructions for painting your counter top. Good luck with your project. To paint Formica countertops, you'll need to use a strong durable paint like laminate paint, interior acrylic paint, or a two-part epoxy paint that's water based. Once you have your paint, apply 2 coats of a primer, which will help the paint adhere to the countertops. Let the primer dry after each coat.
