Yes, as long as the laminate is in decent shape. Just lightly sand it and apply the mastique.
No. You need to either cover the laminate with plywood or better yet get it up. The ceramic won't stick properly to the laminate - and if it does it can cause it to seperate.
Yes; I have done that and it worked great.
not good idea at all. what we do is demo laminate and lay new granite counter tops
You can...if the laminate has been cleaned with TSP and lightly sanded. The best solution, however, is to takeup the old counter top. But if that isn't feasible...just make sure that the laminate is CLEAN and roughed up.
yes, you have to sand the laminate to rough it up, but yes you can...
