can you reseal laminate countertops? If so what would you use?

Answer 1

Contact Cement

Answer 2

I make laminate tops. If the adhesive has released between the wood and the laminate the glue can be reactivated by heating with an industrial heat gun ( like a heavy duty hair dryer). then apply pressure to make the adhesive stick to itself again ( about 70 lbs. per square inch should do the trick). If the surface of the laminate is damaged like a hole or a chip I have had success by using color putty or a Sharpe to get the color close to match then use clear fingernail polish over the damaged area. You will see a difference in the texture where the hole was but depending on how self conscience you'll be about the spot it will prevent more damage from cleaners and water by sealing the hole

Answer 3

I'm sure that countertops come from the factory already laminated. Usually that's an extra strong coating. To do it yourself you will not get that same quality again. I suggest you either just clean them (with clorox) and use them as is, or, replace them. You can use those countertops to make additional small furniture pieces, to make drawing boards, to make cutting boards, etc., or give them away to the needy thru your church or the salvation army.

Answer 4

Laminate countertops actually can lower the resale value of your home, instead of resealing may you should tile over them - it is an easy and inexpensive alternative.
