    It is probably fixed from underneath with screws. So use a screwdriver.

    Ensure the replacement is fit for purpose. Re-fix is usually a reversal of the removal procedure.:)

    You wont be able to remove the stains now either replace or paint the worktop using primer/undercoat and good quality paint

    It is where the bleach has removed the colour and so you can't change it, really though you would think a work surface would be bleach safe just like a kitchen surface.

    Sand it right back? Depends what the material is!
