Looks great. Wish I would have seen this before I started my project. It would have taken a lot of the guesswork out on the jetted tub I am currently putting back together.

@2di4gourmetkarmelkornicecr82 3 года назад

You answered 3 major questions I had. And genius to tape across and then cut the tape. I would've tried to tape in a circle lol. Excellent. Thank you. Now I might actually tackle that. Question then... if it's a tub/ shower one piece, would you start at the top of the wall and let it run down first I assume..?

@lg8354 2 года назад

How does microcomputer differ from epoxy? Easier? Easier to clean after? Less messy? Stronger? I'm in the beginning stages of remodeling and one tub is in good shape but I would rather have it look white rather than beige. That's why I ask

How do you address the future yellowing of white epoxy over time? This is the biggest downfall of epoxy... it looks great for a couple years. Then turns yellow and looks worse than the old tub.

@TheBasedUchiha Год назад

Is there a reason you're pouring so much excess into the tub rather than the right amount? Feels like the (scoop out excess with a foam brush every 30 seconds) thing is a bunch of unnecessary work.

@Acanders1980 3 года назад

That’s going to yellow so fast! Stop teaching to skip the top coat. The top coat is the most vital step.

@customerservice14 3 года назад

Maybe with other brands it would, but if you haven't used our products yet it would be helpful to know that our products are color stable once cured and have the highest level of UV resistance available! No additional top coat needed my friend. Only if this were in an area that received a lot of direct light, such as an outdoor tub, would we then recommend utilizing a darker color. Glad we could help address debunk that thought process though, thank you!

@Kelly-lo6cz 2 года назад

How smooth is this? Is it grainy or bumpy?

@CountertopEpoxy 2 года назад

It’s very smooth no bumps we used the torch to pop bubbles so it’s a glass like finish

@danielbuckner2167 2 года назад

I think the industry standard of urethane is still Superior as it could be put on thinner and has a tighter Bond and better smoother look. This epoxy looks pretty lumpy in the video as a finished product. The urethane is actually cheaper for raw material cost as well if you don't include equipment but then again you could also just pour the urethane but that would look sort of like this video so why would you? Besides a new tub is only $200. If you were going to go up scale you would tear out a tub entirely and put a walk-in shower. There is also the issue of the bottom of the tub being super slick and all of the epoxy being easy to scratch.

@adolfoescorcia2051 Год назад

After being a professional refinisher for over a decade, I can honestly say that urethane is absolutely not a superior product. It's too thin so it ends up not being able to hold up to a much thicker pour on type of epoxy like this. Also all of those bumps you're seeing in the front is the shape of the tub. Pretty much all Porcelain tubs have a bunch of ridges all over the place because it's Porcelain enameled.

@danielbuckner2167 Год назад

@@adolfoescorcia2051 You must be using box store tubs. Quality steel tubs don't have that. It still looks like the epoxy didn't flow well.

@adolfoescorcia2051 Год назад

@daniel buckner We must be seeing different videos because it looks like the epoxy took the shape on the outside as they tend to have those ridges in most Porcelain tubs I've ever seen/done. Also, the whole 200$ a tub argument goes out the door for the average consumer considering most people do not have the skill or tools to be ripping out their old tubs and replacing them, so hiring someone generally costs 1,500.00 minimum not including any plumbing, ect.

@bowlingxp8345 Год назад

How many coatings will it need to create a thick layer so that it has longevity ? If we use color, how do we make it stay and not drip towards the base ? I think you need to make a colorful one to showcase this ! People are bored by 1 color bathtubs and online there is nothing related to make a bathtub look like one of the countertops.

@CountertopEpoxy Год назад

Hey great questions our kit is meant for one layer and that is a thicker coating. Once the product is on it will level a little you just scoop any excess from the bottom and you’ll be good to go. On our TIKTOK we do lots of colors for fun on the tub. Maybe we’ll post a short today of one.
