Can you put new laminate over old laminate countertops?

Can you replace just the laminate on a countertop?

Q: Can I install plastic laminate over a countertop that’s already covered with existing laminate material? A: Yes, but the existing surface must be even and smooth. Repair any gouges or loose edges and make sure the existing laminate is glued firmly.
