Can someone tell me how to paint a countertop to look like granite?

First of course you prepare the surface you're painting on, with sanding, cleaning, then pre-painting with Killz, etc
I would pick different shades of grey, from very dark to light grey. First paint the dark coat on. Then take something like a sea sponge which has the different hole patterns that you'd expect to see in granite, dip it in different coloured greys, and stamp the sponge onto it (after the dark paint has dried, of course)
Home Depot and similar stores have kits for this with all materials and instructions.
