I painted mine. Just scuff them up with sandpaper if they're laminate. They sell kits to paint counters, however I didn't use that. It's cheaper to do it this way. Prime. I used Kilz. Paint a base coat. I used black. Second coat if needed. If you're wanting a stone look grab at least 3 craft paint colors. I used a few shades of gray. Use a sponge or plastic bag to dab the paint all around. Blend. Dab the colors on top of one another. Use your original black when blending. Seal with poly. brush the poly on. Don't roll. YouTube can show you the blending.Helpful Reply -
