Reply To: Renovating Kitchen with New Sink —Assur?

Nechomah: Hmmm. That’s what I would think (about the wetness being an issue with contact paper.

My countertops are ceramic tile and unkasherable, from what I read online about it.

I have a double sink.

I only eat pareve foods, baruch Hashem.

The right sink doesn’t have a garbage disposal. I rarely/barely use it. If any water goes down it, it’s usually unintentional.

To the right of the right side sink is my dish rack thing for handwashing dishes. Underneath that dishrack and around the joining countertop is contact paper, which is connected to the sink with clear shipping tape. B”H is it holding up.

I wipe up the contact paper when water from clean dishes drips on it.

On the left side, however, is no contact paper, a sink that gets daily use multiple times a day, and also ceramic countertops that get splashed on. —This is the side that I want to seal with contact paper in my quest for having a kosher kitchen.

Maybe I should just try contact paper anyway and use that bath/shower caulking underneath the shipping tape.
