Refinish Laminate Countertops

Question?

I have a question - I have white laminate countertops. They are in good condition, other than stained. Everything tends to stain them. I have tried bleach, which tends to yellow the surface and replacing them would be prohibitively expensive. So, I am wondering if there is a product or method you reccommend to refinish them?

Well Maxine, we recently came across a product at the National Hardware Show. Krylon has created a new paint that they claim will work on plastic laminate surfaces. You can try this product or just use good ole' Ivory Liquid Soap and a stiff nylon brissel brush to work out the stain.
