I had a friend who painted the old counter tops in her kitchen and it turned out horrible. ...which you probably did not want to hear. I am not sure if there was another type of paint she could have used??? I do know that you can get your counter tops resurfaced.....I believe it's like having someone actually spray them to get a completely different finish....like granite. I am under the impression it is not all that expensive. Another friend got hers resurfaced for approx. $200.
