The appliances, particularly the dishwasher, are very dated, and some of the Formica is coming off of the counter surface.

Alan said quietly, sliding back to sit on the minuscule counter surface in his kitchenette.

Standing up, I checked the counter surface on which the duplicator had rested, running my fingers over the flat metallic plastic or plastic metal.

Do not use the counter surface as a cutting board, because knives can scratch the surface.

You can remove minor scratches by lightly sanding the counter surface with very fine sandpaper.

After sanding, you may have to buff the surface if the counter surface has a high gloss.
