This really depends on the type of solid surface you use. There are 2 types either polyester and acrylic mixed or 100% acrylic solid surface tops. For 100% acrylic.

If the colour fades it is mostly from leaving water on the solid surface causing water marks or leaving a hot pan on the solid surface top which will leave a big round circle, as the solid surface is not able to withstand the direct heat from the pot or pan.

If you take care of it, most of the time the colour won't run. It will lose some shine after a while, but you can buy pledge from the supermarket and buff it, this will give it back it's shine, but will again eventually fade off after time.

If you are going for a black top and are considering to spend more on 100% acrylic which can cost up to $90-100 per foot, you can also consider using granite instead.
