Coverage & How Much You Need:

A 60 in. x 144 in. sheet covers about 60 sq. ft. before trimming, enough for a standard-depth countertop run up to 12 ft. including the front edge build-up. Allow for the 51 in. x 60 in. repeat when aligning veining across seams.

Fit and Compatibility:

Use with 4981 Calacatta Oro in other grades from the same design family for vertical or solid-core applications. Bond to particleboard or MDF with contact adhesive; the gloss finishes with film are commonly specified where extra surface protection is desired, as printed in the finish name.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: What finishes are available?
A: Four: 01 High Gloss, 01 High Gloss + Film, 07 Textured Gloss and 22 Antique Finish, each in Postform grade.

Q: Are all sizes available in every finish?
A: No; only the eight listed finish-size combinations are sold, for example Antique Finish comes in 60 in. x 144 in. and 48 in. x 96 in.

Q: Why is this only Postform grade?
A: This design page stocks the pattern specifically for rolled-edge countertop work; see the 4981 design for Standard, Solicor and Vertical grades.

Q: How is it installed?
A: Cut, bond to a stable substrate with contact adhesive, then form the front edge on a postforming line or with the appropriate postforming equipment.

Q: How long is lead time?
A: Special order; allow about 2 weeks if not stocked locally, with a 24-hour cancellation window.

Q: Does the gloss finish scratch?
A: Gloss surfaces show wear more readily than matte finishes; the High Gloss + Film variant adds a protective film layer as named by the manufacturer.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Pick this 4981K design when you need rolled edges in a gloss Calacatta look, and specify the + Film variant for busy kitchen tops where added surface protection matters. Keep the postforming radius within your equipment capability and warm the sheet evenly during the bend to avoid star-cracking. Pair with the same design in Vertical or Solicor grade from the 4981 page for waterfall or tall backsplash details.

Postforming involves heated tooling and sharp trimmed edges, so wear heat-resistant gloves and eye protection and let formed edges cool before handling.
