	Good Questions: Corian or Formica ?!?
		The corian ones hold up very well - you really can't see scratches - at least on the non-solid colored ones, and are very easy to maintain and clean, and you can choose the type of edges you want on the countertop, too(square, rounded, etc.).
		It was white Corian, though, and the overall impression was probably at least as attributable to the color as to the material.
		Corian isn't hard to care for, but it does have special needs and you do need to be careful about what you use on it.

	Bonding to Corian and Wilsonart laminates

		Corian and Wilsonart are similar in that they can both be cut with conventional tools, then wet sanded and polished to a nice shine if they are damaged during installation.
		Keeping that in mind, I thought it would be interesting to test adhesion of G/5 Five-Minute Adhesive to the same Corian and Wilsonart laminates for situations when a contractor may not need a lot of assembly time or have the time to wait for a long cure.
