Try using the same technique as when painting laminate into a faux granite. Except you wont speckle the paint with the usual white black or green but you will upshade and downshade the same base color to get your required effect. After words seal as usual. I have heard that sanding the laminate is not required when using Xim but I did it anyway in order to ensure twice the durability. I came across several sites where you can actually make a concrete counter top. Fairly easy to create but plan to complete the project in over a month due to the curing times. Guess I better get started. Good Luck
