How to Paint Laminate Countertops in 4 Easy Steps


Transform Your Kitchen with This Simple Guide


Painting laminate countertops is not only possible, but it’s also an affordable way to give your kitchen a fresh look. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth and durable finish.

Step 1: Clean the Countertop


Begin by thoroughly cleaning the countertop with an ammonia-based cleaner or a mixture of warm water and ammonia. Make sure to remove all dirt and grime. Once dry, protect any surrounding trim with low-tack painter's tape.

Step 2: Apply a Bonding Primer


Next, apply a bonding primer to ensure the paint adheres well to the non-porous surface. Recommended primers include XIM 400, Sherwin-Williams PrepRite, or Zinsser's BIN. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and let the primer set for about 24 hours. Keep the area ventilated, as the odor can be strong.

Step 3: Paint the Countertop


Once the primer is dry, you can start painting. Choose a color that complements your kitchen's existing decor, including appliances, walls, and flooring. Use water-based paint if you prepare food directly on the countertop, as oil-based paints can contaminate food. Apply two to three thin layers, allowing each coat to dry. Get creative by adding stenciled patterns if you wish.

Step 4: Seal the Paint


Finally, seal the paint with three coats of satin or high-gloss, non-yellowing polyurethane for maximum durability. I recommend a water-based sealer to maintain the color integrity. Let the sealer cure for 24 hours. You may need to order take-out for a couple of days, but the stunning transformation will be worth it.

Revitalize your kitchen with these straightforward steps, and enjoy your vibrant new laminate countertops!
