I've seen several adverts for people who put a veneer of granite on
existing worktops (an example: http://www.granitetransformations.co.uk/)
- is the end result any good?

I re-fitted our kitchen a few years ago and used Bushboard Omega Noir,
it looked great to start with but has quickly deteriorated. Maybe a
granite coating would be the answer - ?

I couldn't see any mention of the thickness of the veneer, I'd be
concerned over the risk of breakage with a thin layer of an inflexible
material was applied over a wooden (or chip) base.

I noticed that the lifetime warranty was from an Italian company so
little chance of redress if it wasn't honoured and it excluded pretty
much anything that could go wrong, installation problems being
specifically excluded.

But it could be great ;-)
