Questions regarding slate fireplace surround Description


Hi - I have a black foreplace surround with no mantle.  I don't want to rip
up/take out the slate but am ready for a different look.  Can I:  1) paint
the slate with apprpriate primer/paint?  2)  put tile or Marble (http://www.lightemprador.com) over the
slate?  Thank you in advance for your response.
