No, laminate is floating type of floor installed over an insulation pad. Hardwood floor has to be nailed, stapled or glued to the subfloor. If you do manage to install hardwood on top of laminate sooner or later your Laminate floor will expand due to high temperature or humidity and it will create gaps between hardwood planks.
You shouldn't use any wet products on laminate floors.
Remove the laminate floor first

Laminate flooring can get wet, but only the top. Laminate flooring's sides, open seams, damaged areas, and bottoms can never get wet. If you install the laminate flooring in a full bathroom, you must take extreme precautions given by laminate manufacturers.
Laminate floor cannot be refinished. It will have to be replaced. Hardwood flooring can be refinished.
You should not buff a laminate floor.
yes you can but remember it is not designed for excessive or standing water contact.
A lot of laminate cleaners are just vinegar and water. The key though with safely cleaning the floor is to not putting a lot of cleaner on the floor. Put the mixture into a spray bottle. Spray the floor floor and clean up with a terry cloth mop.
Go to the dealer that sold you the counter top and get a laminate counter top cleaner that is recommended by them. So now that you know what brand they recommend you can find it cheaper somewhere else.
