Back again two years later. Which material do you figure is best for application? I've used TPU and PET. TPU ended up an easier install, it contoured to the surface easily and was able to wrap around the table to provide protection on the sides. PET was the hard material which I would've favored more. It's theoretically an easy install if it was just a flat table, however with existing sink/stove setup it proves difficult to cut around. As well, does brand matter in your opinion? I used Alibaba TPU and let it sit for a year, the edges did not want to stick even with tac solution. Do you think material thickness also plays a role in contour over the edges?
