      Check with Home Depot or Lowes, etc. I have recently redone mine and used Cabinet Rescue. It comes in white or almond. You cannot darken it too much, but you can blend another color to it as long as it is light. Their computers will let you know if the color you have chosen can be blended. I put solid white on first using three coats. Then they blended a color to make a taupe and used a stencil brush to make a marble look. I got brave and added a little black to make a grey color separate container) and used a stencil brush on top of everything else. It came out beautiful. Note: It needs to cure 20 days before usage. After two weeks, I put paper towels down, so I could atleast put my nessecities on the counter. So far so good. Good luck!!!
