Promising review: “We recently purchased a new home, and we’re not gutting our main bathroom until next summer, and I just couldn’t live with that 1980s green another day. So, after reading a lot of tutorials, I decided to go for it and paint the counter. I LOVE how it came out! Once it was dry for 24 hours, I applied several coats of poly and let it sit for 72 hours before I let the counter go back into normal use. It’s held up like a dream. I wouldn’t use any heavy chemicals on it (but I wouldn’t advise those period), but otherwise zero issues with it. I think this will easily hold up until we remodel, and it looks great too. DEFINITELY better than that ’80s green!
“This paint can be a little tricky to work with until you get the hang of how it applies. My suggestion would be to test it out on a scrap or something prior to applying. Once I had it, this product was a breeze to work with.
“Side note: I see a lot of negative reviews on this product because it doesn’t hold up for people outdoors. USE A SEALANT. Don’t blame a product if you don’t use it correctly. It’s not rocket science folks.
“Update (1.5 years later): The countertop is just now starting to need (slight) touch ups around the sink itself. We had to postpone the remodel until this summer, and this counter has held up like a champ. I couldn’t be happier with this product!” —Mistella
