Not surprisingly, the guy at the BORG is probably looking to sell you a new
counter top vs. a sheet of laminate.

You should not have any problems providing the old top is still securely
attached, and, you rough up the old top in order to get good adhesion with
the contact cement. This is a good short term solution.

Hello,

I have an old laminate countertop in our kitchen. I would like to just
laminate on top of the existing countertop as a "couple year" solution.
We
plan to redo the entire kitchen in that time. I thought I could do that,
but the guy at the BORG told me that it would never work. The new
laminate
would not stick to the old laminate.

Anyone ever do this?
Did it work?
