The person that I bought the house from, installed a new *maroon*
colored jacuzzi tub, in a bathroom with a *blue* countertop! Now how
dumb is that?????
Maybe they were colorblind. (Or high...)
BLUE would have been hard to cover with an epoxy paint,anyways.
I had to do several repairs on the house, including a new heat pump,
and a new set of exterior french doors, so I'm out of money for now.
A bathroom!;that would be much easier to DIY than a kitchen CT.
(and a bathroom will take less abuse than a kitchen CT)
I'd just laminate a new Formica layer over the old.It's not THAT
hard.(famous last words...)
Having a trim router will help a lot.
If it was a premade top, I'd bet it has the kitchen-style rolled
backsplash and front lip. (I haven't seen any old-style exposed-joint
counters in the supply houses in years.) No way I know of to
field-apply laminate over that and make it look right.
agreed.
Considering the COLOR combo the previous owners used,I doubt the CT was a
modern one,or had rolled edges.
either way,I'd want to get rid of that CT,too. ;-)
