    I'm SO thankful for the lady who lived in my apartment before me! The apartments are pretty old and all but mine have grotesque orange counter tops. Bright orange. This lady painted over the orange in this apt with an off white color and it looks great. I do wonder if she left out a step or two or maybe used a product that wasn't top notch because I've noticed a few stains that seem like they are "soaked" into the paint, and no matter how hard I try to clean them they never go away. I'm still so happy that my counter tops aren't orange!!

Also, adding extremely fine shimmer to the veining step of the countertops also looks beautiful.

    The epoxy part was where my mother struggled..especially on the back trim of the counter tops. She kept getting a drip look, but the directions told her to use a thick layer. She ended up sanding it off and using a brush on that part, which wasn't bad, but if you look close you can see the brush strokes.

    Nice job! As a professional remodeler, I have a few quick notes that may help if you choose to do another, or if someone else wants to try.
    Pulling out the stove, fridge, etc (if it can be done safely) you can both clean those surfaces more thoroughly, and be able to reach the sides to prevent a hard color stop line.
    Print out multiple visual references of the stone you want to recreate.
    Start with less and come back to add more before sealing if it needs.
    Multiple shades of your color, and putting a second pass in a thinner line over some previous ones once it’s dried is also a plus.
    Happy DIY everyone!

    • @matthewdaub
      @matthewdaub Год назад

      Resin is "safe" to use as long as you don't cut into it or damage it. Resin is toxic when it is mixed together and pored. The fumes it gives off can damage your lungs. The clear coat she put on helped protect the resin.

    I would be livid to buy a house that had counter tops painted…great with the seal…:but I still would be livid
    And epoxy…wait for it chip…and the smell of it lingers even after fully cured…I work with epoxy and I got pieces years old that still have whiff of it..
    Just….please…be careful….it’s so easy for something like that to chip, and before it’s seen or noticed, it’s already caused damage (potentially internally to someone from getting in food.)
    It really looks great, unfortunately looking great doesn’t mean it is great. Please careful and safe….don’t want this to twist into something bad down the road for ya or family. You’d never forgive yourself
