I made the mistake of installing nice granite counters on cheap cabinets. The cabinets looked fine at the time, but have aged quickly since. They are white melomine door and drawer fronts which are chipping and looking grimey. I am considering getting new stained cabinets, however I will only consider doing so if I can save my existing granite counters. Can this be done?

Yes You Just Need To Keep The Same Layout That You Have. As Far As Size Of Cabnits, You Can Move Drawer Around Or Something Like That But You'll Need To Keep The Sink Where It Is Obviously. But Yea Shouldn't Be A Problem, You'll Need A Flat Bar Of Somkind To Pry The Silicone Away From The Granite And Cabnit, That Will Be The Real Trick In Separting Them, But It Can Be Done
