What cleaning products to use after install? Could not find colors on website!
I just keep hearing “that’s what she said” 😂 that piece is beautiful! ❤❤❤❤
Other than the one your brother did a couple years ago, do you have a video showing how to go around a window in a shower wall? And also type of shower pan to use. Need to keep this very inexpensive. Thanx for any ideas you can offer.
I'll do my shower pan tutorial asap. We'll be installing shower walls in a few weeks with a window in the middle of the panel.
For the shower pan, I'm going to use a pre sloped foam pan from ardex or shlutter. Ardex has a really diy friendly sharkbite style drain connection. I'll use a thin layer of flooring epoxy about q oz per sqft, after thin setting the shower pan down and waterproofing. I'll broadcast small partical size colored quartz sand until the quartz stays dry. Next day, clean off all loose quartz sand, use a nylon brush or broom to knock off any loose quartz, and vacuum clean. Apply a very thin layer of polyaspartic top coat with added non skid additive or you can omit the top coat, the large test I did on pink foam just like this didn't have a topcoat, I placed it in front of our coffee maker at work. We've walked all over it with boots and shoes for 6 plus months, and it's still solid.
@@mitchquist thanks so much Mitch for the quick reply. I’ll look forward to the video coming. We did our kitchen counters with StoneCoat back in August 2022 and have really enjoyed them… 👍👍
It looks very classy, Mitch! 👍 I was a bit bummed that the thumbnail was white marble, but the project wasn't.. 😢
Sorry for the click baity thumbnail, I'll get on the editors! 😂thanks for watching as always
@@mitchquist You're quite welcome!! 🤗
Fixed; thank you for the feedback 🙏
@@StoneCoatCountertops You are quite welcome! 👍 Thank you! 🤗
When you first started, I HATED THIS PIECE, but after you shmoozed it it looks, FANTASTIC!!!!
If I was to make an outdoor shower at my fathers cabin. How well would this hold up outside/UV weather changes? Surely I would have to coat both sides of the foam with epoxy?
try super 77 spray adhesive to keep the mesh down
What cleaning products can you use on this for either rust/soap grunge?
I figure you can’t use anything abrasive, but what type of liquid shower cleaners?
Any products for kitchen countertpos without added scrubbing additives like comet or bar keepers friend.
Can the shower walls be made from plywood instead of using the foam and mesh?
How do you clean the drill mixer?
How do you clean the finished product after applying on the bathroom walls
Good question
Any cleaner that doesn't have added scrubbing agents. Bleach spray, bathroom cleaners all safe.
@@mitchquist thank you
3 oz per sq foot. More colors for the win
I am undecided, I want copper, blues and teal. But also want sparkling copper gold and rose for an outdoor table. Can't decide. To many greens and blues. Can you help?
How do you adhere two panels to make one large panel? In another video, you mentioned contractor's masking tape. Is that the recommendation? Also, would you still recommend 1/2" foam if the finished panel needs to be made from two pieces of foam?
I would also like to know about how to join panels to make a larger panel. I have a 5' wide wall and thinking about doing epoxy walls for the shower.
how do you attach a wood piece to the edge?
Could you spray the ultimate top coat? And then remove the excess product with the dry roller?
Great question; do not spray the Ultimate Top Coat! It is strictly a roll-on product.
Is it possible to secure the mesh to the foam by using a spray adhesive?
tried it, don't do it!... spray adhesive or any acetone will melt the foam board
Would a really good heat gun work instead of a propane torch? Propane does have oil in it and that could spit out into your epoxy causing issues such as bubbles I would think.
A heat gun also works, just not as well as the torch. We've been using it exclusively for years for removing bubbles but the heat gun does work well for pushing the epoxy around and creating unique effects.
What was the thickness of the foam you are using for the shower wall? It looks like it is over an inch.
We use 1/2-1in foam for the walls. This is a demonstration piece so I used thicker foam so I can haul it around better to home shows and stuff like that
Where do you get the 1/2" foam? I tried to find it but I couldn't. 😢
I just built a shower, and I used 1/2" MDF instead. It's heavier, and I've had to waterproof each piece front, back, and sides before I applied epoxy.
What did he clean it with at about 9:35 after sanding? Alcohol?
That's correct, alcohol cleans all the dust away and evaporates quickly. We use 91%, and also spray some on a wet epoxy surface for celling effects.
Bathroom flooring epoxy full into curbless shower?
What were you doing with the roller onto the loose tape?
De-fluffing
Removing lose fibers
What were you painting on the blue tape?
@DEC729 the tape was pulling the lose lint from the roller
@@mitchquist thank you
❤
Thanks for watching! Do you have any projects coming up?
you can't do a shower thats already in place, and vertical?
Good question; we do have an epoxy thickener powder that allows vertical application, and we have tutorials for that (link below), but without the thickener it would all run down the wall, and we've never used the thickener in a shower application. Our best method so far is using the foam panels.

33:15 I noticed you don't usually wear your mask when you're doing the scuffing it up for the next coat. Aren't you still turning epoxy to dust there? And if that's the case shouldn't you still be wearing a mask?
3 oz per sq ft. ?
3 Oz per square ft
Can you break down your numbers? I don't understand the "divided by 144"...I'm probably dumb ;-)
Not dumb at all. He's converting square inches into square feet to figure out how much total epoxy he needs for his recipe of 3oz per square foot. There's 144 inches in 1sqft. You do length in inches times width in inches, then divide the total by 144 to get your square footage.
Mitch, youre a whiz
