Can I paint my kitchen worktop?

vtmil · 2007-02-25 20:10:28

Hi we brought some new kitchen cupboard doors today cause i want to do up the kitchen. Problem is i want a black worktop and currently its cream. Could i paint it with anything special and varnish it to stop it scratching instead of replacing the whole thing? Thanks, any advice appreciated. DIY is not my strong point!!…

My neighbour was desperate to do hers and painted the tops in GLOSS paint. Its better than nothing and cheap. Seeing as she did hers in red and the cupboard doors are red with gold handles it looks ok, but you'd have to be careful. Not sure what white would look like.
