    I finally was successful at doing my countertop with epoxy because this man has gone over every single thing that you need to know. Best video I have found on the topic. He's to the point and explains it all very clearly.

    I learned more by watching this video that I have, washing 20 videos of this other countertop epoxy company. They seem to leave out some of the most important information like the whole base coat I just watched you do. I spent almost two hours yesterday tampering around with a sample doing it their way and could never get any product to stay on the top or the edges. Thank you for showing me the right way to do this.

    @chelseagareau6771 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much I’m about to try the surface tension edge thing because I constantly have to heat and scrape those little bubbles off the bottom edges and it sometimes cracks the epoxy that’s on the sides with it. I’m still a beginner and tried tape but that gets stuck too. this is a really helpful video I hope it works I’ll be back to comment again.

  • @kennethharwell181
    @kennethharwell181 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    love the video. looks amazing. the edge technique is a great tip as well as the dirty pour. would loved to see what you did after that and if you used a top clear coat to finish it. also would have loved to see more of the finished product. keep up the good work.

      Perhaps you have done this already and I just need to take some initiative to search through your videos, but since I'm here...
      I would love to see your take on doing multi-level or multi-pour pieces...
      for example, a base coat, then another coat with some clear and accent colors to give it a 3D effect etc.
      None the less, great work!

    Great work - good tip about the surface tension. No epoxy video ever tells you how to deal with the overflow "drips" at the edges. Do you watch them form and wipe them with a roller as they accumulate or do you mask-off the underneath of the work at the edges before you pour??? Thanks!

    Beautiful! I did two painting frames with the epoxy coat and had the all the epoxy on the edges pour off. It left a clean edge on top, but I wanted the edges covered? The first one was just a pour and the second I tried using a brush. How do you get it to stick to the edges? Did I just not have it thick enough? Thanks,

    Absolutely beautiful work. I work with epoxy resin for art so I know a little about what your doing. I’m fairly new to the method and have never done a large piece. We have counter tops to replace and I would love to try method. My question is do you get pits or dust with your product ? How durable is it for normal wear and tear vs granite ect. The resin I’ve used is Art resin and crystal clear. Is the product you sell more durable than these for scratches. Where are you located and how much are your classes

    Man that is sooooo awesome!!!! I would love to make those allday long everyday. How did you get into the creating of these and how would one possibly go into business of making them? Im an artist who throughout my life has been blessed in the arts, creative arts, crafty creating, etc.... basically whatever I endevored in that was anywhere related to or in the artistic dept I always did a damn good job doing it. With that being said Ive recently taken a very big interest in the fluid arts as far as the acrylic dirty pouring and techniques related without any idea where Im going with it exactly I can now see a potential light at the endless end of this path I have ventured into. Beautiful work no doubt, I would so greatfully appreciate any piece of advice or suggestions in taking my artistic talent to this level in possibly making a career of it.❤
