Faux Marble Epoxy Countertops for Beginners: What I Learned & What I Would Do Differently
Hey guys, here was the first pour I did with epoxy counters. I spent some time hand-painting the faux veining and then did a clear epoxy pour over the top. This was a great budget friendly option (cost less than new laminate would have!)

    If the DIYer bought a Zurn QCRTMH, it may take away the huge gripe that the tool was too big. A plumber might have known to tell you that. The Zurn needs less space than the stainless crimp tool. Sure, there's die change when working with other sizes but I'd buy a second Zurn to dedicate. For concerns of oxidation, arguing copper vs stainless inside an wall is moot point. Both works, choose either. If you have an outdoors application, both are no good not because of metallurgy but because PEX isn't rated for outdoors.

      I just followed the direct instructions from the manufacturer. Didn't want to mess around with not doing it properly. I will say the mircotek seemed to spread on a little easier-like it may have been a bit of a finer of a mix.

      I'm sorry, it has been so long since I researched this. I'm not sure. Is it a setting? Because this autostart works for a certain amount of time and then shuts off after 10 or 15 minutes if you don't go put the key in the ignition. Maybe you can adjust how long it stays on for in the autostart settings?

    Is that sub floor painted? How well did you have to prep that if you did lay that flooring over the painted areas?

    • @YouCanDIYHome
      @YouCanDIYHome 12 дней назад

      Generally with LVP flooring, there is an attached underlayment so you don't need to do any additional prep over a subfloor if its in good shape. This was a rental and the prior tenant left the house absolutely saturated in dog urine. This is just an odor sealing primer you see on the floor here. It would not be necessary unless you have odor soaked into the subfloor.

    This is EXACTLY what i want to do in my 720 sq ft bungalow. Thank you for sharing! Did you need to line up any of the plumbing fixtures on the same wall, (back to back with the other bathroom)? Or is that not necessary? Also are you worried about moisture issues in the bathroom with no window?

    • @YouCanDIYHome
      @YouCanDIYHome 12 дней назад

      @@skiesofpromise9391 hi! So the plumbing is not back to back. It’s actually better for it not to be if you can avoid it- because if you ever need to service or repair a shower component, it’s easier to cut out drywall behind it and repair then to have to remove a shower or tub wall. Bathrooms used to have windows before bathroom fans- code says if you don’t have a window to have a fan. I always add fans anyway- I live in a COLD climate so no one will open windows in winter anyway. So both bathrooms have bathroom fans added- even the bathroom with the window :)

    I too would love to know what people do to keep stray bits of crap from landing in freshly-poured epoxy. I'm thinking about pouring clear epoxy over a design of some sort (no decision yet) and stray bits of dust, etc. in the top coat would drive me crazy. Perhaps everyone just decides to live with it? That said, thanks for the detailed demonstration of the process: too many videos make it seem like it's so quick and easy.

    Beautiful marble-look finish, Emily. Would you say this process would be much the same for a molded bathroom countertop sink? Of course, porcelain (or whatever it is) is different than painted countertop, but would the materials and application be much the same? A bathroom remodeler started mine and then abandoned the whole job, so I have the option of removing his work and going with how it was, adding to it as it is, or starting over like yours. He only did the sink with his initial application and never finished it. I might want to do the whole thing, if I don't remove his work and go with the original finish. Thanks
