    My neighbor makes conference tables like this that start at $14,000, he does about nine to twelve a year not as psychedelic as these. He's 85 and loves going to work everyday in his barn while his wife does stained glass in a shop next to the barn. Sometimes I have a beer with them over looking their Koi pond.

    Our company does this stuff as a add on service. I will tell you folks the truth about epoxy coatings on counter tops because it’s a very small part of our business and I honestly don’t care if anyone ever asks for it to be done. 1. I don’t care who says it , which product gets used or who does the work, epoxy coatings will not look new for very long and never as good as once done after 6-12 months of normal use. Polishing it will never make it look like polished glass as it does when first applied.
    2. We’ve been in business for 29 years and I can tell you folks with money and who live in high end homes ARE NOT having epoxy coated countertops done in their homes. Yes it can save someone money and looks ok for a Short while depending on your standards or if your remodeling a flip home. Other than that don’t waste your money on epoxy. Note I didn’t name my business or say what’s better because I’m not trying to sell you myself or any service. Just giving you the honest truth about epoxies. Just like I tell customers if after this info you still want it then at least your were informed and can make your own decisions .

    Mike, you’re a mind reader. I was just drawing up my island top a few days ago and decided since it’s 4’ of cabinets I’d split the top down the center, pull out to my overhang and nightlights down the center. My wife wants pure white with a touch of diamond dust so I’ll do a translucent white down the center.

    I used to install granite countertops years ago. Something that extravagant back then would’ve probably been $80-90 sq/ft. We also hung our sinks with silicone. We didn’t screw them in place unless they were cast iron farm sinks. We’d silicone the the sinks without tape as well. Smooth em with your smallest finger and then wipe over it with a paper towel soaked with acetone. Perfection.

      I don't even know how I ended up on this channel, but tomorrow I start a new job for a company that only does two things. Waterproofing, and silicone caulking.
      Looks like I'm buying a couple of bottles of acetone on my way in in the morning. Maybe they already use that technique, or maybe you just gave me a shortcut from the lower pay rate as a trainee, to the higher pay rate as "competent".
      I've done tiling before, but always just relied on spit and ya finger for smoothing joints.

    Gorgeous! LOVE the matte finish. One suggestion: maybe think about painting the bottom of the overhang before you pour. It would give it a more finished tactile feel for anyone sitting at the island. Just another finishing touch that I think too often gets overlooked and can be important to some people.

    I am very impressed and your countertop looks awesome. After ready many of the comments and understanding the pros and cons, I still think epoxy countertops are a great option when granite, etc. are not in the budget. Although I have 27 years of commercial / industrial construction experience and enjoy taking on challenging DIY projects, I would be hesitant taking on an epoxy counter top of this complexity without an experienced advisor to guide me. Although I’ve completed many DIY projects with little push back from my wife on the design, etc., I think having the professionals at Stone Coat Countertops design and fabricate our countertops would save me from a domestic. LOL 😉
    P.s. I really like the finish product however, I would’ve painted (flat black) the underside of the overhang to give it a finished look. I might of also installed a reglet and LED strip lighting in the overhang to give ambiance lighting to the cabinetry. Thanks again for sharing.

      @scooter6334 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I am a 40 year sign shop veteran. You do not want to seal the bottom side of the cabinet wood always has moisture in it and it needs a way to escape. It will go up and hit the Apoxsee and then it’ll turn down and go out the bottom. If you sell the whole thing up it will take the Apoxsee right off the top or end up taking your paint off the bottom.😢 Moisture in the wood will take the least resistance to get out.

    Hey Mike, beautiful build. I am always amazed by your creations. Is there a reason you did not seal the bare wood. I would think you would want to at least paint the overhang to partially continue the illusion of stone, and protect the area near the sink from moisture. Also, covering the whole thing in paint/sealant would stop any warping issues which may be caused by humidity changes over the seasons. I am not telling you what I would do, just asking from the master so I can learn more. Thanks.

    This was fabulous!!! Great colors, plus I love blue 💙
    A few questions about the lights. Are they a plug in strip and can they be turned off? What happens if they stop working?

    • @StoneCoatCountertops

      Great questions! Yes, the LED lights can be turned off or unplugged. They are strips of led lights that come with double sided tape. They are applied to the bottom in their own section underneath the void they can be easily replaced.

    Pro tip: use your clamp to squeeze those smaller glue bottles during a large area application instead of wearing out your hands and forearms.

      Also use your thumb to squeeze the side of the caulking for the last couple inches instead of the gun's plunger and it won't continue to ooze out when you set it down. It will have negative pressure instead when the tube takes its natural shape

    Wow. That's really impressive and the end result is incredible. How does an epoxy countertop hold up (to heat, scratching, staining, etc...) compared to more "traditional" materials?

    • @urbanstuff9950
      @urbanstuff9950 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It does NOT. If you want oil based epoxy in your food then use this arts and crafts junk as a kitchen countertop.

    I've always wondered what happens when the epoxy inevitably yellows. And did you guys finish the underside mdf with suck up water if you didn't and cause bubbling won't it?

    • @strykerentllc
      @strykerentllc 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Good catch. That MDF is going to soak up moisture like a sponge and the sink opening wasn't uniform around the perimeter. Wondering what happens when somebody puts a hot platter on the epoxy and how anybody is going to access those LEDs when they eventually fail.

      @ Conceded war: I caught the unfinished underside too. Like you said, that's an exposed sponge. And, (I Don't Know About Normal People,) But I would discreetly peek under, and bare wood or mdf would detract from an otherwise BEAUTIFUL JOB!!!
      The underside, (IMO), should have SOMETHING.
      NOT epoxy, or stone coating, nothing fancy.
      Maybe just painted flat black.
      I remember talking to an OLD painter, with a "If you can't see it, I don't paint it!" Attitude.
      Didn't sit right back then either!
      But, I am NOT a professional, and there's NO way I could've done ANY of this job!
      The counter looked GREAT!
      Good Job, guys!
      THANKS !!
