I just bought a house with corian countertops. The kitchen sink is a 10 year old Blanco which is undermounted. The sink is white with lots of scratches revealing a black/grey core material...Very ugly and my wife wants it replaced.
Underneath the countertop, I can see brackets holding up the sink that appear to be adhesively bonded to the corian countertop. (The brackets appear to be corian or similar material) I assume the sink is installed with silicone or similar adhesive between the lip of the bowl and the bottom of the countertop plus these brackets for additional support. I don't see any screws or fasteners.
Can anybody suggest the best way to remove these brackets? Any idea what adhesive was used? Should I use a hammer to try to knock them off? Is there a solvent that can be used to break the bond? I would appreciate some advice!
Thanks.
