Once you begin the process ‘you will also be unable to use your worktops until the paint is dry, which is something to bear in mind if you use your kitchen a lot,’ Tim explains.
Rob also warns that if you’re not sure about painting your worktops, you may want to hold off on painting them until you’re completely sure. ‘Primer and paint will be almost impossible to remove once applied, so be really sure you want to paint your worktops,’ he admonishes. ‘Often painting surrounding walls or cabinets can transform a kitchen, and that might be an easier place to start.'
'It’s also worth noting that painted worktops will never be as strong as stone or even laminate, so you should care for them more like wooden tops and be conscious of heat and water exposure as well as scratching.’
