Painted Kitchen Countertops: 1 Year Update

It has been over a year since I first painted my kitchen counter tops with
Rustoleum Counter Top Paint.

So, I thought it might be a good idea to let you know how they are holding up.

I haven't had any problems cleaning them.

I can scrub as hard as I need to, and they are perfectly fine.

They haven't chipped or stained.

If water sits too long in a spot, the color lightens up, but once it dries completely, the color goes right back to normal.

So, would I do it again?
Yes. 
It's a good, economical solution to ugly, old, or stained laminate counter tops,
 I think they have held up really well, and they look great!

Painted Kitchen Countertops, Take 2

Remember the kitchen counter tops I painted a few weeks ago?
I promised photos of the finished painted counter tops, so here they are:
I think they came out pretty good.
However, I am thinking about adding beadboard to the backsplash.
Not sure about the yellow.
But a definite improvement!
They seem to be holding up, except for the side that I only waited 2 days instead of 3 to start using (it was the side where Husband makes his coffee).
 So I think I am going to put another coat on the whole thing while we are out of town for a few days.
I'll keep you posted!
