Countertops
Countertops are one surface you don’t want to crack or dent. One drop of the hammer, and you’ll be replacing an entire island of granite or marble. Paint and sawdust are a pain to clean up. Make your clean up easier, and protect your countertops with Ram Board Home Edition.
These rolls offer the same tough qualities as Ram Board, but are just a bit thinner, making it easy to roll out and conform to hard surfaces and countertop spaces.
