Can contact paper type coverings really work in resurfacing areas where they’ll get damp, such as countertops?
I moved into an older home where a rather sub-par kitchen remodel was done about twenty years ago. The countertops are formica, that now has numerous stains, and was an ugly color to begin with. I want to redo them, but my budget is next to nothing. I was searching for some window film online and came across some decorative vinyl contact papers that the retailer claimed worked well in many types of applications to include bathrooms and kitchens. Some of these were very nice looking, especially the faux stone and embossed tile ones. I’m tempted to try it, but I just can’t see how a covering that is supposed to be removable can also be durable in areas that frequently get wet. Advice?
Hmmmm…………….I have seen this work, but it is a temporary cosmetic solution only. It works fine on walls, but counters are prone to cuts and dents and then peeling starts and you have an unsightly mess. Why not take off the old Formica and put on new sheets if the counter is still sound. Or lift off the entire top and put down new tops only. Check at your local DIY store for more ideas and solutions.
