Kara Paslay Designs posted a similar tutorial here look like she and her husband know a lot about concrete (they teach a class on it) and they recommended this application for kitchens, so I know some people do it and like it.

Maybe even cut the plywood to fit your countertop and live with it sitting on top of your old counters for a week or so to see how you like it. 2.61K subscribers Here is a new video showing how we apply a concrete overlay on top of an existing concrete countertop to fix some staining issues it had. I think if I were you, I would buy a piece of plywood first and do a practice run. I don’t know how it would hold up with constant use. Update: Because I only recently made these counters for a limited-use space, it’s not 100% fair for me to recommend this method in a kitchen application.

Two thumbs way up for Ardex Feather Finish.
Concrete overlay counter update#
I’ll be sure to update you all if my opinion changes, but so far these are not at all too good to be true.

Not that I expected there to be, but I have been a little skeptical that these counters could be so good while being so easy to DIY and so affordable. I spilled some detergent by the sink last week and was relieved that there was no staining or discoloration. I’ll probably reapply the sealer every year or so, but it’s been a couple weeks now of use and I still love these concrete counters.
