I understand. The countertop project took longer and was much more involved than the videos on the product site indicated. The hardest part was getting the clear coat on so that there would not be any roller lines or bubbles. The cure time also meant that we could not use the countertops for a couple of weeks, and then we were really careful to not let water sit on it for several more weeks. We then used hot pads and cutting boards to protect is. Since it was in a house we were renting, we wanted to make sure it was left in great shape when we left. If the new tenants have also used hot pads and cutting boards, it should still be looking as good.
I did the Giani Granite paint because I had accidentally burned the countertop with a hot pot. The countertop wasn't in the greatest shape even before that. The owner was very pleased with the "granite" countertops, and we got our full deposit back.![Big smile]( "Big smile")
