Ok I saw this online and decided to try it.
Good
I can see what granite tile will look like on my top
Better than the blue tops
Bad
I spent as much on this as I would of tile( one gallon of floor poly really costly)

I will most likley run tile over it now but the results are ok.Image

Is that what I have seen called"granite transformations" or the laminate that looks like granite? I think it looks good too. How expensive was it?

It is always nice because we do it twice!!

I live by the words alot. After a week of looking at the bad poly job I started over. I resprayed the grainite and this time I decided to top coat with a butcherblock finish sealer. so far a much better look I will see final results after the AM
