LOVE THIS CONTACT PAPER
LOVE THIS CONTACT PAPER! This looks extremely classy and clean BUT has to be installed correctly. You can see seams but only when less than 3 feet away (Anything else further away isn't noticeable) The paper was very easy to use and although very sticky, was able to lift up from surface and realign if we got off on laying it down. I recommend using a hair dryer mold it to the counters and to also use maybe a water spray of some-sort underneath. Although we watched some videos on this and thought the install guy would do this, he didn't use either and there are bubbles throughout the entire thing. (some I was able to take a hairdryer to and get out, some not).
We wanted to do a very cheap kitchen upgrade to brighten up the area and this kitchen took 3 rolls of the contact paper to cover. Our original counter was cream and the cabinets were painted from brown to black. The counters bothered us so much that we painted the cabinets white, added a glass back splash, and then chose to use this paper for the counters. With paint, the back splash, and this contact paper, we were able to give the kitchen a face-lift for less than 300.00.
