Beyond Paint Countertop Makeover Kit with Paint, Sealer, Flecks and Tools for Countertops, Buttercream

The countertops of this rental property were previously painted black and over the years the tenant had chipped them here and there and filled the spots in with a Sharpie, so they needed some attention. I thought this looked like it would camouflage the chips, as well as the uneven previous paint job, and I was right. It was relatively simple to do, though tape really well around the sink. Even with stainless, it was a chore to remove the paint that did make it on there. I would also recommend removing the faucet if you can, because getting around that in that tiny space behind it was difficult. The most difficult part was getting the flakes onto the vertical surfaces such as that front edges and backsplash. I found a thin piece of cardboard from a package of curtains and ended up sprinkling the flakes onto that and them flicking the cardboard from underneath so they just kind of popped on there. Some places I just blew them off gently. I wasn't concerned with waste because I think there were plenty of flakes. I think it really came out nice and was pleased with the end result.

So I got the color Sage and it was a bit more blueish, rather than the Olive green color shown online and on the brochure. Beautiful look though, very easy and also messy with the paint flakes. Oh, also I’d suggest to buy paint flakes from somewhere else (or on amazon in lbs) because one bottle wasn’t enough for my 38sqft countertops. I had to buy three more bottles for $80…. anyway, it’s an awesome product and i highly suggest it. I had faux blonde wood linoleum countertops before and it’s a total 180 for less than $200!

This is a good product to use when you want to give your countertops a facelift and can't afford new ones. It is easy to use and the step by step directions are clear. There are some drawbacks though. Roller/brush marks can be see and since the paint dries quickly, you cannot try to smooth out the marks. If you tape anything off, be sure the tape is no where the paint will be because if thee is pain on the tape, when the paint dries, it pulls the paint off the countertop as well. Lastly, the speckles in the bottle are too large to fit through the holes in the lid. If you shake the bottle too hard and too much comes out, it is not easy to spread out the speckles, so you end up with a clump or group of speckles in one spot. Overall, my bathroom counter looks good and as long as you don't look too closely at the imperfections and the paint gives the bathroom a fresh look for a lot less money.

Looks awesome. Great price. Very easy & quick

Very easy to use. Completely transformed my bathroom!!!!

Wish it was a smooth finish. Even with sanding and layers of sealant the finish is rough and you feel the flakes. The self leveling paint is somewhat an incorrect description as well. It does not level out to smooth as ither products do You will see every roller line and once dried, the counter top looks like you looking down on a lake and see the white caps/waves throughout. Overall I'll likely never buy again.

I wanted to brighten up my kitchen, and I choose the linen color. I was really conflicted about this due to mixed reviews. First two coats went on nicely and it was fun adding the Flecks. I did get worried when applying the sealant because it was super streaky but dried to a nice gloss. I didn't sand down too hard, I really love the texture it gives. I'm not a big cook so I'm not too worried about damaging it. It does show water drops but dries clear. The sealant reports it can be reapplied as needed. The only negative was the roller brush included was shedding after the second coat.

The paint looked like slightly wet clay. It was impossible to spread and never really dried. I can only hope the paint I got was old, becuase it looked nothing like the videos or other images I saw. Ruined countertop and a HUGE waste of money.
