Plenty of product. Bought two because we have a huge counter space and barely needed both sets. Don't think though your counter is going to look exactly like granite or that it looks exactly like the picture. It wasn't as warm as we had hoped meaning the gold color wasn't really that gold. This will only be as good and creative as you are and how much you practice. After applying everything I feel in skilled hands the product isn't that bad but I have no idea how long it will last as we just applied it. As in the quality and thickness of the clear coat though I'm putting about 5-6 coats to ensure longevity.

Dear Giani please effective immediately stop sending rollers in your package. They will 100% come compromized and ruin your customer satisfaction and feed back. I almost ruined the entire project using your rollers. Removed rollers and drop your price. Advise customer to buy large super fine rollers. I had bumps and edges all in my clear coat. I've been painting all my life and I'm honestly trying to save you. Small rollers leave lines and especially compromized lumpy uneven rollers. Thank God I had enough clear coat and sand paper to fix issues. Also I used 800 because I think 600 is actually too course.

Good luck!

I bought the Sicilian Sand finish for 15 year old yellow, Formica counter tops. I almost wrapped the counter tops with a rubber adhesive cover, but I'm so glad I tried this first. The entire project took me about 3 days, or 15 hours spread out over 3 days, and I had 2 kids bugging me in between. Make sure to really clean your counter tops before putting this stuff on or else the paint will not stick. Use a razor blade to scrape anything you may have missed and you should be ready to paint.

Tip: Dab the entire counter space with one color before moving onto the next color, don't smear it or press too hard. Also, don't get discouraged if you dab too hard or something, because this paint is very forgiving. At one point, I was so pissed I had to stop the job for a half a day. I decided to continue and somehow pulled it off. The key is to "keep on layering," and the color will eventually turn out the way you intended.

Also, you're not going to see the actual beauty of your new tops UNTIL the top coat is put on. That's the key to making your new tops look, feel and shine like real granite. It's very important to remember this so as to not get unmotivated. I honestly feel as if my counters are new and I simply restored them versus just putting a band-aid on them. They're so clean and the surface is just awesome. Already got a ton of compliments. Also, did I make any mistakes? Yes. Has anyone else noticed? No. If anyone is looking that closely then I probably wouldn't invite them into my home anyway. The texture of this paint job tricks your eyes into not seeing any imperfections.

Buy it!

So so easy to use. The countertop backsplash was the hardest part since if you pushed to hard it created a different pattern. I cut a super tiny piece of sponge to get into the crevice. I used the Sicilian sand, but I chose to keep it darker with more black showing through since my cabinets are slate gray. This is a photo of it before the top coat so it's not shiny yet. I just need to put on the top coats and I'll be done. The "worst" part is having to wait the 8hrs of the primer to dry because I was so excited to start.
I also used the Giani cabinet makeover kit in modern slate for all my ugly white laminate with awful wood trim. We bought new hinges and hardware to make it look better.
I'm very happy so far, I definitely recommend to anyone who wants to update their counters. As you see in my picture it doesn't look like the Giani supplied photo because it all depends on how you differentiate the coloring. I'll put an updated photo when I remove the tape and do the top coat.

I've read many reviews from Home Depot, Lowes and Amazon and decided to do this for our laminate kitchen countertops. The result with the standard kit is OK. However, the result when using an epoxy resin glaze instead of the Giani Top Coat is AMAZING!

I'm not a big fan of the top coat glaze that comes with the kit. We tested it out on some of the back splash and it looked so-so. However, I saw a review on amazon where they substituted the included top coat with an epoxy/resin glaze.

LET ME BE CLEAR - it makes a 10X improvement! We have had people over our house and immediately think we got granite countertops. The glaze is very thick and makes the colors more vibrant and also adds a little bit of magnification that increases the granite effect. There are some cautions though about using the epoxy/resin:

It messy - be prepared to tape everything off as the resin will inevitably fall off the edges of your counters.

It only works on level surfaces - If your countertop has a "lip" on the edge, the epoxy will not cover it as it's self leveling. I had to use a sander and wood planer to shave off our countertop lip for the epoxy to settle correctly. Also, you will not get a nice coating on the side edges or back splash (it will develop runs). I recommend using Giani's top coat for any vertical surfaces and FAMOWOOD epoxy/resin glaze for the top.

You can royally screw up your countertops, so be prepared to take risks. However, I think this is totally worth it. Once you lay this down, it's extremely thick and cannot be sanded off easily. You really do need a chisel and sander to get back down to your original countertops. With a 15-20 minute cure time, you really need to make sure you work quickly and that you have full coverage. The instructions recommend a squeegee or trowel, but i found the best thing to do is use your two hands with nitrile or latex gloves. This allows you to feel the areas that have not gotten coverage.

One thing that I found is when the glaze is drying, sometimes it will pull away from some spots and you will have areas that are like little holes. Just make sure you don't skimp on using the glaze and you should be fine.

You'll also need another specialized tool such as a butane lighter or heat gun as you need this to remove bubbles after you have laid the glaze coat.

If you have the will and want amazing results, try the epoxy glaze, you won't regret it. I think my pictures are testament to this.

I purchased this product for a re-do in my kitchen and it turned out great! The process was simple and the product goes alot further than I thought. I have about 21 feet of counter in my kitchen, and still had enough product remaining that I gave it to my sister to try in her kitchen!
The sponging part takes the most time, but the primer and top coat do not take long at all. Due to drying times, I recommend to plan a few days to complete the re-do, start to finish. When complete, you must wait one day before using the counter top and 3 days to put any small electronics (IE coffee maker, toaster) back on the counter top.
The package contains the primer, colors, top coat, and 2 roller heads w/one roller. I used a small, disposable foil pan for the paint pan that was about the same width as the roller. I just lined the pan with tin foil and tossed that out after use (used a paper plate for the sponging colors rather than the pan)
If you decide to do this as a weekend project, I suggest priming on Friday night (is to dry 6 or 8 hours). I actually added two coats of primer and still had some left over. Sponging is 3 different colors (or 4 if you decide the color is too light and you need to add more black primer in the pattern, which I actually did) and then you need to wait for dry time and retouches if needed. Top coat is next, with 4 hours of dry time. I put on 3 coats of the top coat and allowed the first coat the full 4 hours.
One of the best things (besides the look) is the fact that there is NO odor!! This is something I was worried about because I decided to do this on a January weekend in Iowa so would have frozen had I opened the windows! My throat swells up and I cough a lot if using paint/stain/varnish products - one thing I was not looking forward to - however, that did not happen with Giani. In fact, the weekend after this project, I painted one wall in the kitchen and I started coughing, throat became scratchy - obviously not enough to deter me from a project, but definitely noticeable.

If needed, I will definitely buy this again! I may even re-do my counters in the black, as I really liked the look of the black primer :)
