My boat is around 40 yrs old and has white formica in the galley which is looking rather tired particularly on the horizontal surfaces around the sink
I have several options
1 sanding and epoxy painting with a different colour . lot of sanding and finishing plus not sure how long it would wear as work top
2 cleaning the surface with baking soda not sure if totally effective
3 removing the laminate and replacing with new seems a lot of work and laminate only is not available in the Greek islands particularly in small quantities so would also have to remove the wood below and buy solid from local kitchen shops
So has any one recently done any thing similar on worktops in the Galley before; and do you have any advice on the method and durability after a couple of seasons use or longer ?
