Wilsonart 1875K Summer Carnival Granite High-Pressure Laminate Sheet, 30 in. to 60 in. Wide, Postforming Grade

Wilsonart Summer Carnival (design 1875K) is a high-pressure laminate sheet with a large-scale Brazilian granite look in golden ambers and browns with grey accents. Choose from two finishes, two postforming grades and six sheet sizes ranging from 30 x 96 in. to 60 x 144 in. One sheet is the sell unit; pair it with a suitable particleboard or MDF substrate and contact adhesive.

Key Features:

• Granite look: Brazilian granite design featuring large-scale areas of golden ambers and browns with grey accents.
• Two finishes: Available in 35 Mirage Finish for a subtle sheen or 52 Quarry Finish for a matte, stone-like texture.
• Postforming grades: Offered in 350 Postform HPL for standard rolled edges and 376 HD Postform HPL for demanding postformed applications.
• Six sheet sizes: Offered in 30 x 96, 30 x 144, 48 x 96, 60 x 96, 60 x 120 and 60 x 144 in. sheets to minimize seams.
• Large design repeat: Approximate design repeat is 55 in. in length by 60 in. in width, so seams need layout planning.
• Countertop ready: Postforming grade is made for horizontal surfaces with rolled edges such as countertops.

Coverage & How Much You Need:

One sheet covers up to 60 sq. ft. in the largest 60 x 144 in. size. Choose a sheet wider and longer than the countertop blank so edges and build-up strips come from the same sheet and seams are minimized.

Fit and Compatibility:

Bond to a quality particleboard or MDF substrate using contact adhesive, or use as a postforming top with rolled edges. Wilsonart backer sheets are sold separately and are recommended on the underside to prevent warping.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: What is included with my order?
A: One laminate sheet in the finish, grade and size you select. Substrate, adhesive and backer sheets are sold separately.

Q: Which grade should I choose?
A: 350 Postform HPL is for standard rolled-edge countertops; 376 HD Postform HPL is the heavy-duty postform grade for more demanding horizontal applications.

Q: Which sheet size do I need?
A: Pick a sheet at least slightly larger than your finished countertop dimensions; larger sheets reduce the number of seams on long runs.

Q: What is the difference between the two finishes?
A: 35 Mirage Finish gives a soft, low-sheen surface while 52 Quarry Finish gives a matte, stone-like texture.

Q: How do I install it?
A: Postforming grade sheets are bonded to substrate with contact adhesive and rolled edges with a postforming machine or appropriate edge tooling; follow the manufacturer's fabrication instructions.

Q: Is this in stock?
A: This design is a special-order item; if not in stock locally, allow approximately a 2-week lead time.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

For countertop work, order 60 in. wide stock for standard 25-1/2 in. deep tops so the backsplash and build-up strips come off the same sheet. The large 55 x 60 in. repeat means plan your seam location before cutting to keep the grain flowing. Always bond a backer sheet to the underside of the substrate to keep the panel balanced and prevent warping.

Wear gloves, eye protection and a dust mask when cutting laminate; sheets and cut edges can be sharp and cutting dust is an irritant.

Order your Wilsonart Summer Carnival laminate sheet in the finish, grade and size that fits your countertop project.
