This info was posted in one of my replys, but it's good info and hopefully John will add my link to the sticky he created showing sources for parts and materials.
A company called Decotones buys laminate material from a Brazilian company called Lamitech. They in turn sell it to Patrick Industries who in turn uses it to manufacture the prefab countertops and table tops that Keystone and probably many others use in their trailers. If you need a piece of this laminate to build a matching whatever or repair a cracked countertop or table and you try to go through a dealer, they will try to sell you a manufactured counter or table top because that's all they can get from Keystone. If you go to Trekwood and find the year and model for your trailer, you can get the name of the color you need, go to Decotones website and find it. They will sell to individuals and the price they quoted me was $1.72 a Sq/ft. Add shipping to that and it's probably close to what you will pay if you have Home Depot order you a custom color laminate sheet.
This quest started as a result of being asked by DW to build a countertop extension so she would have more work space. I thought I already had enough colors clashing with each other and did not want to an another one to the mix. Keystone was no help and the dealer was no help. They have been helpful on occasion, just not this one, so I started looking. A lot of Internet searching along with some suggestions from forum members finally got me to Decotones and their CS guy was extremely accommodating.
