Painting laminate counter tops?

[Accountingcat]

Thanks to Covid-19, I have decided to delay my big kitchen remodel. I currently have honey oak cabinets and “fake granite” brown speckled laminate counters. I wouldn’t mind painting the cabinets but I know the current counters will not match any paint color. I really don’t want to replace them because I would have to replace the sink and attached backsplash too and that’s more than I want to deal with right now. Has anyone successfully painted their laminate counters and lived with them for a few years? Can painted counters actually look good or is this always a lipstick on a pig situation?
