    As a builder, one thing I always did when installing those particle board countertops was after cutting out for the sink and checking it for size, I would slightly sand over the edges of the cut to kill the sharp edge and put a couple of coats of Kilz2 to seal the raw particle board. I can't tell you how many times I have replaced those kinds of countertops where water got under the sink edge and swelled up and rotted the raw particle board.

      Thanks for the tip. I actually installed a formica countertop last week. I took your advice and sealed the sink cutout but I also sealed the front under side edge of the countertop. I just used some clear water based Polly that I had in the van. I think this is a great tip and appreciate you sharing.

      @@handylandlord You are very welcome!
      Another thing along those lines is cabinet floor rot, most renters, even the good ones are reluctant to tell you about small leaks or other problems with the bathroom and kitchen cabinets for fear you might blame them for the problem, so, the first time I see some swelling or rot in the cabinet floor install a piece of 1/4" plywood that has been well sealed and painted and caulk it in the edges and corners. This takes way longer to cause damage as the water just sits there and it is more likely that the renter will alert you to it.
      I always gave them lots of positive reinforcement when they reported a problem, it really saves me in the long run.
      Good luck!

    From a guy who has building maintenance experience and a landlord. On the toilet zep acidic toilet bowl cleaner is the best. It made a toilet that hasn't been cleaned for 10+ year's look like new. Mildew, calcium buildup you name it GONE.

    My landlord would not replace our original 1960’s banana yellow countertops so I used this product to refresh the kitchen. It’s absolutely a suitable solution if replacement is not an option. I used foam rollers and had good results. The fumes are absolutely a real concern. I found keeping the lid on the can helped reduce the odor greatly. If possible, do 3-4 coats with several hours of drying in between. A week later I sanded it with about 320 grit sandpaper (auto body/glass grade). Overall I’m happy with what I got.

    • @tinainnca
      @tinainnca Год назад

      Interesting, he said do it within an hour or you have to wait 24 hours, so you found it better to wait a few hours in between? After you use the high 320 grit sandpaper later, do you go over it with anything else?

    • @handymanhoney-do6881
      @handymanhoney-do6881 Год назад +4

      @@tinainnca I was painting an adjacent room and coating the countertops over a long weekend so I did 3 complete coats over a 12-14 hour period. I let it dry overnight with heavy ventilation and did touch ups the next morning. I let it dry for 2-3 days before putting anything on the surface.
      To be fair, it’s a more delicate product than I hoped, but better than I expected. It’s a good short term solution to ugly countertops--like a flip house or an update until something new can be installed.
      I did not re-apply after sanding. 320 grit is barely abrasive. I used it just to smooth out a few spots that had an orange peel texture.
      *update* I did my countertops about 5 months ago and will probably do another coat soon. In particular, the heat from my coffee maker, friction from a cutting board and a place my belt buckle always bumps are all showing some wear. Alternatively, a small section where the microwave/air fryer sit are perfect. Abrasion and harsh chemicals are definitely your enemy here. This is a decent product, but it is what it is-a $40 band aid to hold you over until some other solution is possible. No regrets from me.

    I've done similar projects. When you clean the countertop, making sure that you wipe it down at least twice with 91% alcohol to really get all the dirt and grime off. Do this BEFORE you sand or else you'll push the dirt beneath the surface and seal it under the paint. You don't want that.

    Turned out very nice. Currently considering trying this with an ugly mauve-pink cultured marble finish bath sink. Not sure I'd paint a rental countertop though, because tenants using abrasive cleanser might ruin the finish. On the other hand, looks like some tenants don't know what Comet is anyway, yuck. (Rust-Oleum also makes a semi-gloss/gloss boat-bottom paint that covers fiberglass. This will probably be my first choice, experimenting. Boats take a real weather battering. But will compare these 2 paints regardless.)

If you stay close to the tape in front you get a cleaner edge. I like that you double taped it. Less likely to rip on removal. What was your timeline for replacing sink and using the surface?

    I sold this product when I ran a Home Depot paint department. Everyone loved it. But be warned this is one of the nastiest smelling products you'll ever use so be prepared to ventilate!

      That's what I was going to ask...how bad is the smell? So, can I buy this at Lowes or Home Depot? And do you know if it last long time, or does it scratch/chip?

      The smell is horrible!!! Its not so much the odor but the strength of it. I re did our bedroom dressers with this stuff and lets just say the windows open and fans were on. It took almost a month for the smell to go away. But the finish is amazing

      That's fine. As long as it doesn't smell like shit, literally... and is durable and lasts a lifetime.

      Yes the smell is bad. I’ve always purchased from Home Depot. I wear a full on respirator for automotive work normally. The unit is normally vacant.

      @handylandlord  2 года назад +1

      I would recommend sanding it down with a random orbital sander to remove blemish’s then paint it again. Sorry I’ve never tried to remove the paint completely. Good luck on your project.

    Great job! And it's fantastic to see that you DIDN'T skimp out and used new brushes and rollers! They're pretty cheap and that's the best way to go, coming from a painter.
    I've painted for some cheap landlords, and they lose their ever loving mind if you spend more than $12 for materials!! It's ridiculous. You can spend a couple of extra bucks, as you did, and create something great from nothing! To me? It's better to spend a few dollars more, do a good job, create something nice that will also last awhile as well.

  • @beckyshell4649
    @beckyshell4649 2 года назад +1

    If a lot more of these budget improvements were done to trailers and lower-end apartments it might keep rental prices under control.No one would want to rent a place with a bathroom like it was before. But the after was not fancy but it looks clean and neat and might sway rental customers.
