A paint kit such as the giani countertop paint kit has all you need in one box with instructions to create the marble mottled and veined look.
Can you spray paint marble countertops.
The challenge is getting paint to stick to the slick surface and stay there through future use.
Actually i think you could paint over any unattractive countertops and make them fit your taste.

Ready for a makeover.
They cost about 5 00 a piece.
Love this idea wondering if you think it would work on a marble vanity top.
If you are going to paint your counters to look like marble i recommend you purchase a marble tile with veining at the home improvement store.
Recently i painted our bathroom cabinets a bright white which made the cream laminate countertops look really sad.
Thoroughly wash the countertop with hot water and soap.
It took me 4 coats to completely cover the preexisting marble.
While you need to let each coat dry for about an hour before applying the next if you wait too long i think over 2 3 hours instructions will specify you will have to wait until it has completely cured about 4 days to apply another coat.
To make the paint look like real marble you want the surface as smooth as possible.
Cultured marble countertops do contain marble dust but they re not natural stone.
They re actually closer to fiberglass or resin which means that if the surface is discolored scratched or you re just sick of it you can paint over it in good conscience.
Everyone wants to know how to spray paint countertops.
It held up to constant wiping down water plates kids making toast etc so yes you can paint over granite countertops and make them a thing of beauty.
You can use it as a guide to see what veins look like since when you are painting them you can create the most realistic look.
Rinse and allow to dry.
In fact when it comes to making over cultured marble you really have only three options.
Unfortunately short of buffing and reapplying a gel coat to get it back to its former glory there really isn t much you can do yourself to give a cultured marble countertop a new look.
Live with it replace it or hire a company to come in and professionally refinish it.
So don t skimp on the prep work.
