Has anyone used the granite then decided to change the color? How did it work?

As with any painted and varnished surface you will need to sand it down until all the varnish is removed or the new coat will just peel off

Yes....I used that color with a green marbled countertop; it looks awesome....

I used a granite that is predominantly tan or beige, with some highlights that are a soft blue or light gray.

Yes you can. We looked into doing the same. Talk to your local granite dealer. Our price was about $400.oo

Granite is not a color option-there is cobblestone/yellow and rainwater- I bought the cobblestone and it's more gray in color than what the picture shows.

we wash our granite top with soap & water. works fine. make sure it's cool 1st. also we found it best to allow plenty of time for the stone to heat thru.

It depends on your current counters. Do they have rounded edges? If so, I would say that the instant granite will look obviously fake if you are within 3-5 feet due to not being able to wrap those rounded corners (like on an island) very smoothly. If you have square edges everywhere, I would go ahead and do it. It will give "curb appeal" to your kitchen initially and in the photos (and if they don't like it, it can be easily peeled off). If you have formica counters, I do think it looks better than that.

Well counter tops are generally highly polished and do bead water after being polished. Outside granite might have a coarse finish? If they are polished I would think they would be slippery when wet.

no, no color changes are apparent or visible, but the "Bulletproof" stone sealer I used on my marble bathroom vanity top did not protect it from PINESOL, which has now stained the marble, thanks to my girlfriend using PINESOL to clean the marble...it is now damaged forever.

I personally bought it for granite. I would use a wax or something on marble, I think.

Mine is speckled and the pestle is a bit different in coloring than the bowl. Granite is a funny thing though. Albeit, it doesn't look bad at all. I am pleased.

Have not tried that, I only use on my granite countertops, I would contact the company that makes it and present the question to them.

The first project in my kitchen I used the color silicon sand that project turned out excellent. I dance around in order to the white diamond for my mother's kitchen she had a Formica 1970s Formica countertop, and I encountered problems using the white diamond with her, countertops which was a yellow color. I contact customer service and they were very courteous and quick in sending a replacement as well as giving me additional tips/ instructions on how to correct the problem (counters turned a baby blue color hours after completion). After several calls to customer service we finally got the counters to maintain the color diamond white that they were intended to be.

We placed it on a mostly black granite. The granite has some browns and whites scattered throughout, but the sink really pops! The brown of the sink pulls out the brown in the granite, and it looks very nice.

I have no idea, although I ordered the style with the granite insert I received one without it! Return process was so complicated....getting back in tiny boxes, carrying, etc. I decided to just keep it and got a little refund on order. Not what I ordered, but very nice.

Watch the video on instant granite on YouTube, it shows corners well. I had round corners and was a little harder, I just cut and pulled down where ever it looked like it needed to fold over it's self. It is not as hard as it sounds, once you get started it will kind of sort it's self out.
