Getting Bubble Marks Off a Laminate Countertop

Laminate is a hard composite material commonly used in home countertops. Many homes are outfitted with laminate countertops because they are less expensive than stone or marble countertops. Also, they are more prone to damage than many other kinds of countertops. One problem that may occur on your laminate countertop is for small bubbles to appear on the surface due to heat warp. There's no need to replace the whole counter when this occurs as you can solve the problem yourself.
