If you re on the fence about replacing your existing laminate countertops try painting them first.
Make own laminate countertop.
Lay plastic laminate sheet on top of counter and make a rough cut with a laminate router.
Use trim router or table saw to cut 2 inch wide strips of laminate for covering the edges of the 1 inch thick counter.
Cut strips of laminate to cover the edges of the countertop then cut a big piece to go on top.
When done right and properly sealed it looks really great and can be a great interim solution.
It s a good idea to watch a few video tutorials first to get a feel for the process.
Trust me on this one you want to start big and trim it off afterwards.
Leave at least two inches of overhang on all sides of the projects.
