The kitchen in our new home has very ugly corian countertops that we'd like to replace; However, due to budget restraints and adding costs from other projects, we thought we'd be creative and tile over the corian with granite tiles. Is this something that can be done? If so, is there a certain adhesive that would work best?

What if the old Laminate has been painted, do I need to strip it before trying to glue on the new laminate counter top?

Should you be talented and open to this OTHER idea, my talented neighbor just faux-finished her old formica countertops! When she told me, I was leary to see them, thinking the worst for some reason, but when I SAW them my eyes nearyly POPPED OUT! She marbelized them with a large grain look, using darkest brown, med. and light browns for different mottling, then a feather with lightest beige for the veining, and sealed it all with exterior Polyurethane. My countertops are dull beige but in excellent shape except for a very few tiny knife marks, so I will certainly keep this idea for myself and thought you might pursue it BEFORE resurfacing with new formica? Good luck and God bless your hands should you try. : )

Yes,but you can't use just any type glue.What will work best is what is called a contact adhesive.

Yes, if the laminate has grooves or a pattern, there is a product that you spread on it first , so that the old pattern doesn't come through. I purchased this at Lowe's and it worked great. Don't remember the product name, sorry.

I don't know about that but I've found this great stuff you paint on (made for countertops) that looks just like solid surface stuff - www.daichcoatings.com - it's called spreadrock and they make a spreadstone that's can be painted on floors that looks like slate.
