Rust-Oleum 384964 Home Marble Countertop Coating Kit, 72 fl oz, White

This works beautifully. Our kitchen countertop was very old and was completely refreshed with this product! It gave us a very nice kitchen upgrade. My suggestions would be take your time and may want to design the marbling on paper first. But we are very happy with our new countertop! It looks so clean and so far has been very durable! Worth it!

We have some old white formica countertops in a ski condo that we were thinking of replacing. Since it is a galley kitchen we weren't too keen on spending big bucks to replace the countertops. This was one of the few DIY projects I have ever done that was easier than I expected (I have a general rule that things take 20% longer than expected which works well). This was a piece of cake. Instructions are idiot-proof. The only thing I did differently than the instructions (kind of by mistake) was blending the grey marbling lines by "dry-brushing" them afterwards with just a touch of paint on the tip of the brush. Fewer is more on the gray marbling lines to make it look authentic. The blending part is key to making the "line" look real; just play around with it. *Google some photos of patterns you like. You can always just paint the lines over and redo them til your happy. I would recommend this product.

Our daughter did our counter and we are pleased with the results. Many people have commented about how nice it looks. We were surprised at how long it took the top coat to dry. It felt sticky for several weeks. That may be because of the heat and humidity here in Florida. It also has a texture to it. It is not as smooth as a granite or marble. It definitely improved the appearance of our kitchen and it was a more economical option than replacing the counters.

I used this product to cover a 1980’s brownish orange countertop. The directions were clear and overall it was easy to apply. But there are some things I learned after all was done. 1) it will take many coats to achieve full coverage (at least in the white version). 2) your surface should be smooth as butter. Any imperfections in the surface will be very apparent once completed. 3) make sure your surface is CLEAN. I have a couple areas near the range that are discolored. I’m assuming because there might have been some left behind residue on the original surface. 4) I expected the top coat of epoxy to be shiny. Maybe I needed to continue applying coats to achieve that look but after 3 coats I was done. Overall, the product does what it says it will by providing a refinished marble “look” to dated countertops. I am not optimistic about the durability but I guess time will tell.

Since buying new countertops is out of the budget till next year we went with this kit. Easy to use, dry time was rather quick. I wish I had made the veins thinner and sponged more white to create more depth but overall not bad for a first attempt. We also did 3 coats of the top coat to help with durability.

The look of this turned out exactly the way I hoped. However, I’m unsure about the durability. After following all the steps exactly to a tee, several spots completely peeled the paint off when I was rolling on the top coat and accidentally hit the counter with the metal part of the roller. I’m hoping it’s just because it hasn’t had the full 7 days to cure, so we will see how it lasts.As for the look, it turned out great. The key is to dabble the gray paint in a line with a large paint brush (one you would use to paint walls or baseboards) then spray enough water to where the mineral paint spreads on its own. Then go back in with a paintbrush and napkin to clean it up.Only giving 4 stars because of how easily the white coat peeled away after slightly hitting it with the roller. The base coat was drying for 36 hrs at that point and I don’t think it should’ve peeled away that easily. However, the look of this product is exactly what I wanted!UPDATE: I 10000% REGRET USING THIS KIT!!!! I feel like if I just breathe wrong, the countertops chip. There are literally hundreds of chips and scratches allllllll over the counters after just a couple weeks of light use. I’m so upset!!!!

This stuff is amazing! Looks and holds up so good! I redid my bathroom vanity 1 year ago and it still looks new!

Love! It came out amazing. I followed the video. I did use an epoxy for the top coat instead of the second coat it comes with.
