This is a perfect situation where the results may be acceptable. It all depends on your expectations. Unfortunately, the painted tile and grout fixes I've seen look exactly like that, painted tile and grout. This can freshen up some bad tile and grout but only for a short term. The paint no matter how good it is, will eventually chip and scratch and maybe sooner if people aren't careful with the food chopping and cutting. The formica top is non recoverable.
