Hi,

I need to do something with this material (can't tell if it's marble or granite) it's shiny and bull nosed properly. Busting it out isn't an option, it's 1" thick or thicker around the floor mantle. The color is beyond terrible, but what can I do besides busting all this out and spending approx $2k?

The wood mantle was painted black, the inside was painted gray, the walls behind it is now white, and the carpet is a light gray. Please help. I know I can't paint it, I'm trying to find some sort of vinyl covering (the fireplace is sealed and there's an outlet in there) so it's not being used, it's just there and I want to get rid of the eyesore that material is.
