resurfacing laminated kitchen benchtop

I would like to resurface my tired laminated kitchen benchtop. Pros advertise spray job for 700 - 1000 dollars.
I want to do it myself and would appreciate suggestions what material I should use to get good result.

If by laminated you mean a thin laminate layer over particle board or MDF, the best re-surfacing advice I can give is to rip it out and replace it. Replacing it with another laminate should not be too expensive and will give much better results. :)
