We totally changed the look of our kitchen by epoxying our countertops for $199! We got quoted over $7,000 for new countertops (lower end quartz) and I knew there was a better way around this sticker shock (for now).
Come see our kitchen before and after! In the photos you will see our counters 5 months later and how they have held up.

I’ve heard the epoxy yellows over time? I HATE my kitchen granite the previous owners installed it’s awful. I need something desperately

At first I was cringing over painting that granite and your kitchen cabinets were beautiful as they were I thought. But after the transformation I was thrilled with your end result. What cabinet paint color did you end up using

Does the paint kit have strong fumes? If so, how long did it take for any odor to fully disappear? You did a great job. Your kitchen looks beautiful.

Does the new countertops still have the same texture as the original granite? Thinking about doing this but skeptical of how it will feel. Thanks!

This seems like the simplest epoxy product I’ve watched. I want plain white countertops so I’ll skip the marbling. Is there no colored paint layer after the 2 base layers? Also has this product become yellow? Many reviews on other products state white epoxy becomes yellow
@laurennicolejones
@laurennicolejones 7 месяцев назад
Ours is still whiter than white. The clear caulk we used turned a bit yellow though- that’s about it. Counters definitely not yellow. No colored paint layers at all. all white

Hi there! I tried the Gianni kit on my counter but the epoxy cured yellow. The company got back to me on email saying I needed to use lacquer thinner and rubbing alcohol during the prepping process but didn’t see you mention this step. Did you happen to use that during your prep?
@laurennicolejones
@laurennicolejones 3 месяца назад
Hi! I did not use lacquer or rubbing alcohol- the video shows every detail we used. I hope that you can get it right- that’s frustrating?!

How is it holding up? Also do you have to be careful with certain kinds of cleaning products? I am thinking of doing this in my kitchen…

Did you guys need more than one kit? Your kitchen looks about the same as mine in size and I’m in the edge of maybe needing more epoxy
@laurennicolejones
@laurennicolejones 8 месяцев назад
Just one kit! I would recommend getting some of the white primer too as extra in case of chips on the countertops. We have had a few teeny ones

You should never use a foam roller for that process. Leaves an inferior finish .

Why getting granite if you were painting on it? I mean granite is not cheap and people get it for a reason
