Vinyl wrapping kitchen worktop and cupboards

[D-Ranged]

Has anyone used vinyl wrap on kitchen worktops and cupboards?

We are going to look at a house that is at the top end of our budget. The inside is fairly new, as well as the rest of the house modernised, the kitchen layout is great with huge bifold doors, BUT the worktops are pink so are some of the cupboards! Also, some of the cupboards are a lime green colour!!

It's not going to put us off buying if we like the house, but it will be something we need to change fairly soon, as it's not to our taste at all!

I know vinyl is pretty durable these days, but Im aware it's not going to take a beating from a knife. Assume anything hot on it, will probably deform or melt it, considering they use heat guns to shape it on cars?

Maybe cheaper/worthwhile to just replace the worktops, and wrap the cupboards instead?

Or are there any other, more sturdy options to cover worktops in the meantime?

It may work temporarily, but I can't see it lasting well - especially on a worktop. Putting a hot pan or baking tray down on it will immediately ruin it.

No idea how much it'd cost to get someone in to do the wrapping for you, but I can't see it working out cheaper than just buying a new worktop and getting the doors painted - or even doing it yourself as it's not an especially tricky job.

I'd do the wrapping myself if I was going to do it. I build cars in my spare time, so have done some basic wrapping previously.

The doors look like they have a shiny gloss texture, not sure how well they'd hold to paint without a lot of prep work. And we have two bull terriers that smash into things. We did some test paint on the cupboards in our current house and it was not durable at all!
