Instant Granite Premium 36” x 216” Kitchen Countertop Vinyl Laminate Cover | Easy Installation | Displays No Seams | Peel & Stick | Durable Self-Adhesive | Marble Design | Black (18ft)

I redid my counters in a few hours flat - not the easiest thing I have to admit but once I figured out to do the curved part in the back first then a flat piece on the counter in front of it. The seam in the back doesn't show at all. Also, their tip on unrolling just a tiny bit at a time and smoothing it flat with a cloth made a remarkable difference in the application. So my advice would be to start with a test piece in an area that's less noticeable. You'll learn quickly what works and what doesn't in the application. And it's totally worth it because they look like real granite! I'm thrilled with the result. It's awesome because I couldn't afford to buy new counter-tops right now but I needed to upgrade them. This was a perfect solution. It's a good way to test a new color also I realized. The black is stunning with my white kitchen. Also, the company is extremely responsive. There had been a problem with the order - one roll instead of two was sent - but when I contacted them on a WEEKEND I got two personal responses (I had left multiple messages hoping to get to the right place.) The second roll was in the mail and on my doorstep before I could blink.So my trust in the people representing this product is pretty high.

In my opinion, this product is terrible. Beware. I just purchased two rolls of this Instant Granite and was very excited to transform my kitchen. However, I was in for a shock. Firstly, the instructions provided are a single white sheet of paper; it seems very cheap and unprofessional. The Instant Granite "black" looked sickly. It did not look anything like granite.The company sent one giant role, rather than the two I ordered, which added difficulty to the project. On inspecting the role, I noticed that the Instant Granite was already warped and wrinkled fresh out of the can it came in -- this was not a good sign. On attempting to apply the product, I became more and more concerned. Once applied, the black sickly Instant Granite looked like black trash bags stuck to my counter, not at all like granite. Further, it was almost impossible to apply. Because the product is so cheap, it wrinkles and creases very easily -- these wrinkles and creases are permanent and do not come out. Further, the Instant granite loses its stickiness, so there are bubbles and rough patches everywhere.Next, I attempted to cover the Instant Granite around the sink. Don't even try!!! The level of difficulty is expert level. When I cut out the sink using a razor, I was cutting blind, so the line was uneven and the counter top showed through the gaps. At this point in time, I gave up. I spent $200 on this product, because I had it shipped abroad and paid duty etc. Do you know, this product was so poor that I crumpled it in a ball and threw it in the trash without thinking twice about my lost cash. That's how bad it was. I'd rather lose $200 than spend another second with it.This product is terrible. The company knows that people want the look of granite but cannot afford it, so they created this to trick consumers out of their hard earned cash. If it was just difficult to apply, I would understand, but the look of Instant Granite was completely off. Again, it looked like I had stuck black garbage bags on my counters. It feels like the same contact paper used to cover books and likely is -- it should cost $5 a sheet, not $50. I wish I had read a review like this before purchasing. Do not buy!!! Save your money and buy a new counter top or granite.

I really love the quality of the product, it is a bit pricey but it is worth it!! Friendly tip, it is time consuming so take the time to do it so that it will look nice. I put a picture before and after and I love the final results.

I had an abomination of a countertop in my tiny house. It consists of two different types of laminate countertop and I had used bonds and paint to make them match. Passable, but not perfect. This product greatly improved the appearance, but ANY imperfections in the countertop will be telegraphed through the material and might be more noticeable due to the high gloss finish. Material scratches very easily and is not the easiest to apply. Overall, I'm happy with the way it looks, but I have my doubts that it will hold up under use.
