Countertop Resurfacing
Without even touching the walls or replacing the appliances, a professionally resurfaced countertop can make a kitchen seem larger, brighter and more comfortable. Choose from solid colors, multi-color stone-look flecks, or the natural stone-like appearance or glossy metallic designs achieved with poured epoxy.
Preparation
Surface Wash Cleaner
Cleaning the surface using Surface Wash solvent cleaner removes build-up and residual oils from the substrate, providing a fresh surface to begin the resurfacing process.

Sanding
Sanding using 180-220 grit sandpaper will scuff the surface and promote adhesion.
Surface Wash
After sanding, remove sanding dust and any residual oils using Surface Wash solvent cleaner, leaving behind a clean surface.
Repair
Once the surface is sanded and cleaned, repair imperfections and seams as necessary using ProFil™ Compound or
QuickPrep 2000 wipe-on primer and bonding agent provides optimum adhesion, significantly extending the lifespan of the coating.
