Would love to do this on my bathroom vanity. I watched one of your bathroom vanity ones with similar colors. Would this be an option with a bathroom sink vanity?
I would also love to see this effect with cream, beige, and taupe (Not gold). I am sick and tired of everything gray, black, and white which in my opinion is institutional. I purchased my appliances one year ago and they are biscuit; not stainless steel, gray, black, or white. It wasn't easy but I did it. I have yet to paint my cabinets with the biscuit color but with a wood floor it will look warm and inviting. I want a compatible countertop with No veins! Please do a video with these colors.
Hey there. Just wanted to say thanks. I'm pretty new to epoxy pouring, about 2+ years. I set it aside about 6 months ago because I couldn't get it right and epoxy pouring mistakes are expensive! About 2 weeks ago I watched a few of your videos, was inspired, and my last 3 pieces have been perfect!!! Again, thank you, Red
Can you please do some more tops with flat smooth edges? In my area no one wants rock edges. A flat smooth edge is much harder to achieve than a rock edge and I’d love to see more of how you get a perfectly flawless flat edge. Thanks
You can have any edge you like. You either buy the substrate of choice with a straight edge or you cut the edge straight when you're preparing the substrate for the paint.
I can get my edges to nearly be flawless smooth. The trick is done in sanding. If you time the color coat right your color coat will be thicker when it goes over the edge. Put a scrap piece of MDF behind your sandpaper as a sanding block and carefully sand the color coat on the edge as flat as you can without going thru with 220. Tape back up your edges. Then I do a thin clear about 2oz a sqft to fill in pinholes on the top spread with a 1/8 vnotch trowel so I add a little back to the top and move the material closer to the edge as you chop. Then pull your tape and brush the edges as it goes over with horizontal brush strokes end to end as it comes over the sides. When it cures it will be nearly flat sides with just some minor ripples. Then do your normal clear with 3oz a sqft. Tape up the sides of the counter again for this coat. Spread/Chop/torch and then pull the tape when it's still warm and it will flow super smooth. It will stop dripping before it jells but be super smooth. The edges of my counters have less ripple than my Ikea high gloss cabinet doors.
I love watching your videos for art and craft reference, I am intrigued by DIY home improvement. You don’t just make counter tops, you make works of art. It’s amazing that you can replicate real stone so perfectly. You guys are incredibly talented!
I'd love this in my bathroom on the countertop! With the diamond dust in it I bet it looks luxurious and they have an array of colors to choose from depending on your space and style
I'm so thankful I found your RU-vid channe after watching videos for 8 hours I came upon yours, thank Godl, I'm getting ready to redo my kitchen. So now I'm watching all your videos and I'm going to use your product. Thank you so much for making these.
This is absolutely beautiful! I am going to copy this recipe but with darker tones rather than lighter for my dining room table. My cabinets are white and my countertops will also be white after I epoxy them and so the darker greys, black, and subtle whites in the table will look so gorgeous!
I absolutely love your enthusiasm & professionalism. It's very important to me to have a refined smooth edge ... I generally love the earthiness, but I'm in need of the least amount of bumpy edge as well... I'd love to see if you would finish with a different timing or a different frame of some kind instead of the tape or if you would actually go back sanding and buffer. Please let me know how you do your magic. Thank you so much !!!
This is what I need to do in my kitchen when I finally have one again. Had a custom cabinet contractor leave me without a kitchen back in February this year. It's taken a while (since that failure) to get this situation remedied via big box store, and I'll finally have cabinets delivered 1/13/22. But now their countertop vendors are taking up to 10 weeks, so if I wait on THEM, it'll be a year and at least 2 months WITHOUT a kitchen. I saw you guys in my FB feed recently, so I started following you and soaking up all the great stuff you've been putting out there, and I thought "hmm... I could do this... I'm really handy..." My cabinets will be dark-ish, so I need something like THIS to offset that. After being left without a kitchen, AND the initial deposit I gave that thief, it's costing me more than twice what it was supposed to, to fix what he left me with. SO... I'm seriously contemplating tackling the countertops on my own, to avoid the total cost reaching 3x what it was initially supposed to cost with the guy that no-showed on me after my kitchen demo. Love what you put out here for us, and really hope I can pull it off if I try this. Templates first, of course! 😁
I didn't know our bath countertops had yellowed so badly until I wanted to redecorate and add color, but the counters were the wrong color! It's time to change and update. I do acrylic pouring now and use epoxy resins, don't know why it's taken me so long to find the perfect method for my counters, too. Duh! I know why, it's such a BIG expense to replace if I mess up; in my pouring, I can just scrape the canvas, wash it or toss it. Not countertops. Your method has taken most of the fear out and I'm ready to try. Thanks for the thorough instructions and demonstration.
Also I would recommend practicing on something like a table or even just a sample board. We messed up on taking the tape off at the right time and now we have big bubbles on the edges. Top is amazing.
Very impressive. I installed cultured (or "engineered" as some people refer to it) marble slabs in my Mom's bathroom shower, and was thinking of doing the same with my bathroom. After watching this video I am rethinking that.
Well ya got me, my wife is heading away for two weeks so looks like im redoing our kitchen countertops with this pattern, then wil finish the cabinets next week in a dark mocca stain. No experience so wish me luck. Your whole team and you are awesome 👌, love the videos.
You should know you will have to redo it anytime from 1 month - 3 years later because it WILL YELLOW. They don’t mention that in this video but if you ask him about the yellowing they’ll tell you that it does and that they suggest not using white
Buddy you're kind of a genius explaining the application to a worker type person. When you tell us the temperature, measurements, show it setting up by dripping it from your fingertips and the time it took to get there, you've sold me on selling this product. I'm wondering on suggested customer pricing. I'm a 25year self employed painter/drywaller and I think in Nashville this product will sell like hotcakes! Ty!
You mentioned a few times to heat your Epoxy up to help it flow with a space heater which I do not have but I put the "A" Epoxy in the kitchen sink and filled it with very hot water for an hour ahead of my counter top pour. Now that I know it works I'll heat up both parts A and B next time. .Well worth the trouble epoxy flows ever so well now. Flowed extremely well when I tilted my work. Worked out great poured like magic. And I also after mixing all my colors in small cups poured little one inch rows of each color across a paint roller pan instead of the big bucket.. I did a white flood coat on the whole counter to be sure it had full coverage and the rest of the exotic dirty pour just flowed on the counter top easily. I did a one inch row of white across the pan then below it a one inch row of grey across the pan below that another off white with grey white paint .I did like four rows in the pan and then I poured it on counter top. This is more time consuming but I feel it's worth the control you have keep colors separate and you get to see how your colors are being laid out on the counter so now you can add darker or lighter colors ahead of time in the pan and place them where you want them.. I loved how the colors hardly mixed with each other until the instant I began to pour them out. .LOL My wife did not want any black in counter and wanted a small streak or two of black. When I was pouring the grey cup out I used your mixing method to have a single drop of black dye on the edge of the cup and just barely let the Epoxy touch the black dye to make grey. So I quess i turned the grey cup and It poured out of the black dye sitting on the ups lip and BIG lol I got a pretty black streak that i loved. and the wife liked it too... After I was completely done, Like 3 or four hours later I poured of what was still in the cups and i made a sample board. wow ! talk about a long working time. .that is iN SMALL AMOUNTS never let it stay in large amount longer ( a quart or over more ) than 4 minutes or so Get it on your counter top or small cups ASAP ! Shockingly I had about 3 or 4 ozs in a cup from the pours from the day before and it still like the minute I poured it Like 14 hours later...I would not have believed anyone if they told me no way love it
@@sofiahayat I've only had my counters a month. LOVE LOVE LOVE them. Mine have the gloss top coat UV protection.I doubled the water to keep down the matte finish and they are smooth to the tough. So far so good
Would love to see a hunter green solid with diamonds and other things to make it pop. For my hunting cabin but keep it just hunter green. Thank you very much. RWP2
I absolutely LOVE this look, and the great instructional video, but…the edges! Do they cure smooth? Rough? Do they need sanded? I would love to know what steps to take for a smooth edge (seamlessly blended from the top of the counters), but haven’t seen it on the website instructions or in this video-is it possible to achieve what I am describing? Any help would be greatly appreciated-thank you so much for your time!
I have two kitchen tables to reface. I will be using this technique and purchasing your products. I cant wait to tackle this project and will share my photos. Your work is amazing and you provide excellent easy step-by-step tutorials. Simply the best Mike! Keep the videos coming.
Love it !! I have to say your video presentations are BANG ON !! Very well presented, you provide thorough instructions which include curing times, measurements and pro tips !! I will be redoing my bathroom countertop and will 100% order my products from you.
This white exotic marble is how I would like to refinish the bathroom counters, but I don't know how to do the sinks. Do you have a video that shows how to do that? Counter and double sinks...
Same method as this video but you will need to remove your sinks and create an additional tape dam in the openings. Then when you untape the sides and smooth them out you will untape and smooth the sink holes at the same time. Let it cure for a few days then reinstall sinks
You guys are awesome I love watching you guys. I’ve been learning from you. I have an artistic side but I’ve been a builder for 20 years and this has changed the game for me.
I finally got around to ordering some of your clear coat epoxy. And let me just say, it well exceeded my expectations!!. I made a version of the carbon fiber table you made, and it is coming out amazing!,,, thanks again!!
@@StoneCoatCountertops I just added the final top coat and ordered some legs. I am not part of the insiders group. Let me know how to join and I will post it up when it’s done. Thanks again.
HI, I just discovered your channel and I am very excited! You are very skilled and I love your models. As I am going to redecorate my house, one little question: Can I cover my tiled floor with epoxy? I understand the technology, I know what I want, but under the tiles there is a heating system and I don't want to loose this advantage. Does epoxy have thermal conductivity?
stonecoat for UK!!! ( Is going to keep at this till it happens.. plus hey I could be your UK brand ambassador.. lol) this marble looks gorgeous.. get me stonecoat and I'll redo my kitchen in blue and white marble. I post my stuff on Instagram but I'm always mentioning you guys and how it sucks we have nothing comparable to your epoxy. I have to use 3 different epoxys sometimes to get similar results and then it doesn't match your heat resistance or UV. I've had one of the worst years ( not just cus of the vivid horror) but getting stonecoat even a small amount would make my millenia
We need a video on how to make all by yourself slab cabinet doors. My cabinets are older solid wood cabinets but the doors are not standard sizes & have designs routered into them & are smaller than today's standard pre-made doors. Doesn't have to look like stone but could look like quartz about like the diamond dust you showed here.
Thanks so much for showing your work!! Can you show more fireplace projects? They are really hard to find on RU-vid and I'd love to do epoxy over tile (against a wood floor) for my fireplace hearth. Heck! Even more epoxy videos on raised cement/tile would be super helpful. I'm a newbie to stone coat but helped in my kitchen counter project so I'm pretty confident I could do a vanity or hearth with a good video tutorial. Thanks for considering. 🤗 Love your enthusiasm!
I was thinking the same thing. I would love to do my tile hearth, but it sits on top of the hardwood floor with a wood trim piece around it. I'm thinking I could bondo between the tile and trim and cover both with epoxy to look like marble. A little hesitant to ruin my wood floors in the process though. We need a tutorial video!! :)
@@StoneCoatCountertops Not yet. The only place I have to work is in my garage and its pretty cold and wet here in the NW. Waiting for spring / summer time frame. Thanks for asking
@@StoneCoatCountertops I used the stone coat resin. Will be purchasing the whole kit for my kitchen counters. But could you tell me how you would stonecoat a tub surround on a tub jacuzzi that is already in place
So “out-of-the-blue”... I have an old refrigerator that works great however, it’s showing it’s age. I was thinking of applying your epoxy to the old lady... would it work?
This is the one I want to do in my shower on the RV. I am a drywall and plaster guy by trade for over 40 years but I don’t want troweled Apoxsee I want poured I want that smooth. I just got to make sure that if I use it on something too skinny like masonite if it’ll crack in an RV
My friend, your work is great and I love accuracy. You are successful. I ask you, did you not make the wall epoxy as beautiful? Is the epoxy board easier? Thank you
