Luckily I used appliance paint first, after watching a video from another podcaster. I put 3 coats on, not much prep but light sand, fans going in between and very dry time of year is imp! It has lasted 3 years so far!!! I ended up doing my bathroom tile that was yellow and even a guest bath that had yellow tile. It is great and lasts!!! Don’t wash it with anything abrasive and max dry time before putting anything heavy on it.the humidity level needs to be vey dry! ! Saved me a fortune!!!!!!
That’s awesome!! I want to do my bathroom counter and massive bathtub that takes up so much of my bathroom and it’s so beige. I can’t wait to get to that!
No and the can did not say to put anything but the paint, this is made for refrigerators, you sand and paint and it becomes a shiny shell like a fridge
Great Job with showing each of the different applications then confirming that the Appliance Epoxy was best in everyday use. Rust-oleum should send a commission of thanks for great reporting of results that stand the test. Wonderful, and thank you. :)
The new pour on epoxy countertops, that you can do yourself, is absolutely amazing! You can make them look like chiseled rock, granite, marble with any color combination you can conceive of! Gorgeous!
Be EXTREMELY careful when using anything with epoxy! Make sure to have a respirator mask and double up the rubber gloves. There's massive numbers of people who end up getting very sick and having major health problems from using epoxy.
I inherited an old white metal table that was my grandmother’s. It was probably from at least the 40s if not older. My dad had used it in the garage to mount a saw on. I bondo’d the holes and painted it with the appliance paint. It came out great. It’s been three years and it’s holding up awesomely, though it’s not subject to as much wear and tear as a countertop , but no sign of peeling or anything. Since it came out so great I used it on a couple of other things, including an old dingy mailbox. I used black and it’s been three years and it’s exposed t the elements, including the hot desert sun and it looks as good as new. It was only supposed to be temporary while I looked for something else, but I probably won’t bother now.
I used Rust-Oleum countertop paint almost 4 years ago and it still looks great. I did top with 3 coats of polyurethane to keep water and stains away. No regrets here for about $30.00 I gave my counters a new look.
This is the best video I have seen so far! I have been looking to paint our kitchen counters for ages now, you have given three examples to use, what you did to prep, how long to wait, and how it turned out! Now I feel better about my decision to paint our countertops. Thank you so much for the amazing advice and video! ❤
Awww you're very welcome! I made the video because I wish there was a video like this when I was thinking about painting my counters! It helps me too because I can look back in case I forget my own tips... LOL Have a great day.
I used topside on an old table and it came out awesome. Also looks like a new top. Drys like a rock. Been two years and have not had any peeling at all. I painted kitchen cabinets also and came out very smooth. Talked to a rep first and asked if it was ok to use on wood. He said it also it resistant to cracking. I’ll def be trying the appliance paint in the future.
My daughters 1st home was a fixer. She hated the pea green tile in 1 bath and a bright blue in another bath. The tile looked rather new and the house had many other issues that were more of a priority. I told her paint them white. Within a short time she used the spray appliance paint and is so happy that it looks clean. In fact 3 years later, the rest of the bathroom has been remodeled but not the tile around the tub area as there are still other areas of higher priority. I doubt they will get to the tile surround of the tub for many years.
I used appliance paint on my countertops and I absolutely love them!! We get chips here and there but I just touch them up with left over paint and they're good as new I'm so glad I did it
@Donna-vh5ym like a normal laminate countertop and when I get a little stain I pour a little bit of bleach on the area let it sit for a bit and it comes out
I used the appliance paint on my bathtubs and it worked great. That was 3 years ago. Only issue I had, was my husband would always leave a bar of soap on the same spot in the tub and it actually took the paint off one day when I was cleaning the tub. And if you buy their small touch up paint it was not the same color of white. The paint irself though looka great and I plan on doing another tub.
I used appliance paint in my shower and love how it turned out. I plan to do the rest of the bathroom countertops in that as well. Biggest issue was how long it smelled, but so easy to apply. I wish they had more colors - not sure I want to do white in my kitchen.
People continue to insist in the comments that you need a primer. The only primer you need is a good sanding and go on with your appliance paint!! I have painted countertops too, that came with my house, it's an old 1960's oil based so I don't know what it is, but it's very heavy duty, and very 1960's yellow! Maybe someday I will fix it :)
I'm sorry you went through all of that, but thank you for saving me money. I found your video because I am re-repainting my counter because I just don't like the color on mine. I thought I could go cheaper than the Giani paint. 3 years ago I bought the Giani Countertop paint bombay black and it worked super well, it has held up very nice and I scrub my counters. I just don't like the dark black in my kitchen and I guess I will have to spend the additional price to buy the Giani cause it works.
Awesome! I’ve always wanted to try that but the expense didn’t make sense since it would be a temporary fix for that house until I saved for the quartz we wanted. Glad to hear your experience with Giani! Thanks for watching! ❤️
Thank you for your honesty. I’ve painted plenty of floors and Zinsser Cover Stain has never failed me as a primer. It’s oil based and stinky, but sticks to anything! NO SaNding!!! 👏👏👏 I’ll try that and then the appliance paint on our guest vanity.
I like a good diy. Thanks. (If you do this again, take a look at how you are rolling the paint on in short random directions and placing the can down on the surface. It all adds up to a less ideal finish.)
Thank you so much for this because we have a couple of counter that we might think about replacing so this is worth a try. Epoxy is strong because I use it to fix my jet ski.
Thanks for this excellent video. I'll use the Rust-Oleum epoxy paint first then cover it with liquid epoxy on top. That's how convert cheap lanolium to a Granite or quarts looking countertop.
If you’ll be using liquid epoxy over the whole thing then you can just use any paint underneath. The clear liquid epoxy is a very hard shell and will protect any paint at all. I just never used it because I’m terrified of the drips and the whole mixing of the 2 parts thing. Haha. Anyway thanks for watching! 😊
I'm surprised you didn't add a coat of polyurethane on top of the paint to seal it. It adds a level of protection to your counter so that cleaning won't ruin your paint job.
I did use that counter top paint and the same thing happened to me…chip and discoloration..need to re paint…thanks for the information will give it a try…
Thank you for this video this has helped me alot ..few years back i used the couter top paint and used epoxy over it and it sucked it still peeled and stated mold around sink so i strpped it all off OMG that was a 2 month job sttipping that paint off because i have so much counter top and and island ive been confused with what to you this helped so much as well as the comments of others trying this 😊
The boat paint works great on old cast iron sinks. I have painted two cast iron sinks and haven't had issues. I can see why it wouldn't adhere to lamenent countertops.
I am planning to use Topside Marine paint on my cast iron kitchen sink. Did you use a primer? If so, which primer did you use? How long did this paint last? Thank you in advance.
Thanks for this video update. I am getting ready to paint my white kitchen counter tile and needed to know what would work best. Epoxy Appliance Paint it is!
Rust-Oleum came out with a new countertop coating kit called Rustoleum HOME Countertop Coating kits. Try using that for the next countertop paint project! It's suppose to work a lot better!
Ok thanks. I see it’s more $$ than the can that’s why I used the can. Most of these kits are just supplies you can gather from store. I’m Thinking of giving my counters a second coat and maybe some design to it.
I just used the white knight laminate paint and it’s chipping and peeling in some spots so now I want to re do it. I’m gonna try your method with the BIN and the Rustoleum
Thank you, very informative. I too used the boat paint as advised by a friend on my camper and it too peeled off yet only on the top, sides are fine. I'm thinking the heat of the sun had something to do with it. Which is the next project this coming summer, repainting the top. I'll take your advice.
You should do stone coat epoxy, I did it in my kitchen and it been about a year and a half and still looks great. Also with the epoxy you can make it look like real stone.
Rust oleum has always been the worst least durable water resistant paint for decades. They also bought some good companies and ruined their brand too. I recently discovered Behr Ultra scuff defense paint as an Oops paint. And it is astonishing, truly astonishing. It dried like a rock over my RV plastic counter top where lots of water drops and hangs. Absolutely no moisture penetration. I can’t scratch or harm it. However, my 150 German Shepard had a panic attack that I was gone and I can see he was able to scar it with the full force of his deadly claws waking at it. In a small spot. But still did not get through the paint entirely. I am sold, and changing the entire house now Alternately I painted my neighbors wind beaten door with Behr marquee interior eggshell enamel and it is so hard it feels like epoxy and not paint. Gonna try this on a counter or shelf. But the scuff defense is a scrub-uble surface, guaranteed in the can. And thank you for making this video.
thank you for this... i have purchased topside paint and wqs told by lowes no primer no sealant necessary but i was logically contemplating appliance paint.... i will now take and swap it out for the appliance paint for sure!! Really good to see long term results because so many videos are beautiful when done but you're kind of thinking "ill call you in 6 months!" and see how its holding up! 😂
I was always told that you had to paint over the zinser shellac within a day because it cures hard and then there is poor adhesion to it as the primer would repel it
BIN is a great product but not suitable for anywhere that might have water. Shellac does not like water. A bonding primer would be much more appropriate.
Thanks, it arrived on time, I was searching and deciding which paint, was a better thanks, I will try that one. Did you use any sealing oat or just that paint? Thanks
Interesting thanks! I have used Behr hi gloss enamel white and then put a couple coats of polycrylic for about 6 years ! I clean it with a bleach based counter spray and even cleanser for a tough stain! If it gets worn out due to the polycrylic I just Re paint and Re coat! I may try the appliance paint though !!! Cool.
That’s my next project. I’ll do a paint effect on the counters with simple acrylics then seal with the poly acrylic times like you said. I’ll just touch up as needed.
Thank you for this video! Have you ever tried the countertop paint kits? They're quite expensive, it seems. Wondered if they're worth it. Probably not if the appliance paint you've used works so well, as you've experienced.
Didn’t really want to spend the money since all it is a bunch of paint you can just buy separately and we were going to get the counters switched out soon. But it has been temping! Thanks for watching.
@@notahomemaker4474 no worries 😊 I went against my own advise and used the marine paint and it didn’t work sadly. Should have stuck to my true and true appliance paint.
topside boat paint works well for areas where it won't come in contact with heat. It was great it my bathtub until I filled it with scalding hot water.
I’m currently researching my options here and appliance paint is an interesting choice. I’ll be considering that for sure. Did you apply a clear top coat in any of these? That might address the issues you had around the sink and such. Other videos I’m seeing suggest the following: repair defects, clean, sand, mineral spirits, two coats primer, dry six hours, two coats paint, dry four hours, two coats clear topcoat, cure 24 hours, light use for two weeks before complete cure.
Yes that should work with the other paints but I noticed with the appliance paint those things were not necessary which was true, the appliance paint was the most reliable. Thanks for watching!
If you're interested in a durable paint on surface for your countertops, try a product called Stone coat countertop. You can find all the information about it on RUclips. I have used it and it is amazing. And Very durable. And it is non toxic and has no horrible fumes.❤
Yes my friend told me about it. I just didn’t want to invest more than $30-50 since I’ll be swapping the counters soon. But I did hear it’s really good. Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for the video. I'm getting ready to order paint for my kitchen counters and cabinets (appliance), bathroom shower and tub surround (marine), and mud room floor (floor ???). There is a specific paint for floors but, I'm going over linoleum not ceramic tile. I would like your opinion on which paint would be most durable for the mud room floor. I've seen they now have a farm and implement paint as well. I'm sure it would hold up on the metal faucet assembly but not sure about covering vinyl ???
It was a good 1.5 years and I sold it that way the realtor loved it and asked me how to do it for her moms house and the buyer loved it too. No complains!
i am finally ready to paint my countertop tank you so much before see your video it is a night mare for me beacause to much stuff in home depot and somtime the staff know nothing on this stuff...tank again sorry for my english i am french 🙂
Hi! I’ve only used it on countertops so I’m not sure…sorry. I have heard of people using on tile but I’m not sure about walking on it because of the slippery surface.
I have used bin on wall and ceilings with great results. Do you think I should use the bin on my formica countertops before I apply the appliance paint?
That sounds like a good base since it hardens as a shell. I’ve never used stone effects but I recently saw a lady paint her countertops with acrylics and then put the poly like you said as a sealant. It looked soooo good!!! That’s actually my next video!!
@@1cleosmom I ended up using a product called "Beyond Paint" as my base coat. I then applied several coats of Rustoleum "stone effects", added "veining" & sealed it with poly. Looks amazing! It has held up through Thanksgiving & Christmas with a house full of family & friends. Hope this helps.
@@OurClassicHome. Just to clarify when you used the appliance paint for your countertop: NO primer and NO topcoat/sealer of any kind… Correct? Thanks for your response.
Not the appliance paint. feel the surface of your fridge..that's how it comes out, no need for a top coat and it is not suggested on the can. It comes out like a great hard shiny shell. Thanks for watching!
Of course, this is assuming you want to paint your countertop white. I am trying to paint my WHITE laminate a darker color, so I'm not sure how appliance paint would work for me.
there are other colors like black in a spray paint and there is gray too. You can always get a bit of brown spray paint and mix into the white can of appliance paint to make a beige for example
I'm about to do a small 2x4 faux marble counter in my bathroom. After many peoples reviews of using the appliance epoxy I'm going with that. Wasn't aware there was going to be a smell. There is a vent but now window. Then marble effect and for a topcoat deciding between a two part epoxy or Minwax Polycrylic. Why have you never used a seal coat of any kind?
Just curious why you didn't put a clear top coat over the appliance paint? Lowes has one that goes on thick and is for specific for bars and table tops etc? seems like it would keep it from chipping staining etc?. We will be painting our countertops with the appliance paint soon..Is it tintable?
Theres no need. It is appliance paint and epoxy, feel the surface of your fridge..that's how it comes out, no need for a top coat and it is not suggested on the can. It comes out like a great hard shiny shell. Thanks for watching!
Paint peels so easily or gets damaged by using a knife by mistake or some hard object that falls gently. how will this paint countertop last? is it really a decent idea ?
Its appliance paint think of it like cutting on your fridge. Its pretty durable, BUT i would never cut on a countertop no matter what it is, marble, laminate, quartz. Always use a cutting board for cutting and a trivet for hot items. Hope that helps! thanks for watching!
I know!! Yuk! It was everywhere and on the outside too. The house is beige outside with an orange 70s stipe across it. The house was built in 1997 like why bring your 70s with you ewww. And the tile floors too. So much orange 🍊
When it’s cured it’s a hard shell. But food safe as in cutting on the countertop? I wouldn’t do that no matter what countertop i have. It’s made for appliances so think refrigerator, stove, etc all belong in the kitchen. Thanks for watching!

That sounds amazing! I wish I had the confidence to do it. I’m terrified of it.
Did ours two years ago there just now starting to need some touch ups in high use areas
Be EXTREMELY careful when using anything with epoxy! Make sure to have a respirator mask and double up the rubber gloves. There's massive numbers of people who end up getting very sick and having major health problems from using epoxy.

I'm thinking the heat of the sun had something to do with it. Which is the next project this coming summer, repainting the top. I'll take your advice.
Glad to help! 😊
You should do stone coat epoxy, I did it in my kitchen and it been about a year and a half and still looks great. Also with the epoxy you can make it look like real stone.
It has crossed my mind but I’m terrified of doing it! Haha
Thank you!! Going to paint my whole house with Appliance paint including my disgusting daughter's room😂 I may even paint her
OMG you’re too funny. It’s pretty stinky so I would stick to surfaces like countertops. Haha thanks for watching!!
I hope you meant your daughter's disgusting room! 😂😂
Rust oleum has always been the worst least durable water resistant paint for decades. They also bought some good companies and ruined their brand too.
I recently discovered Behr Ultra scuff defense paint as an Oops paint. And it is astonishing, truly astonishing. It dried like a rock over my RV plastic counter top where lots of water drops and hangs. Absolutely no moisture penetration. I can’t scratch or harm it. However, my 150 German Shepard had a panic attack that I was gone and I can see he was able to scar it with the full force of his deadly claws waking at it. In a small spot. But still did not get through the paint entirely. I am sold, and changing the entire house now
Alternately I painted my neighbors wind beaten door with Behr marquee interior eggshell enamel and it is so hard it feels like epoxy and not paint. Gonna try this on a counter or shelf. But the scuff defense is a scrub-uble surface, guaranteed in the can.
And thank you for making this video.
Thank you for this 'synopsis' review! It's so helpful
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching!
thank you for this... i have purchased topside paint and wqs told by lowes no primer no sealant necessary but i was logically contemplating appliance paint.... i will now take and swap it out for the appliance paint for sure!! Really good to see long term results because so many videos are beautiful when done but you're kind of thinking "ill call you in 6 months!" and see how its holding up! 😂
Exactly, I never found any long term videos so I made one! hehe
I was always told that you had to paint over the zinser shellac within a day because it cures hard and then there is poor adhesion to it as the primer would repel it
Awesome review -just what I needed to hear.
Yes I agree! I wanted to see a video like this but it didn't exist... so I made one!
BIN is a great product but not suitable for anywhere that might have water. Shellac does not like water. A bonding primer would be much more appropriate.
Thank you so much for this information!!! I've been using floor paint for my kitchen counter and it keeps cracking or peeling off...
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
I had great results with the rustoleum counter top paint
So happy to hear that!! Its amazing. Thanks for watching!
Thanks, it arrived on time, I was searching and deciding which paint, was a better thanks, I will try that one. Did you use any sealing oat or just that paint? Thanks
Just the paint. No need for sealer.
Interesting thanks! I have used Behr hi gloss enamel white and then put a couple coats of polycrylic for about 6 years ! I clean it with a bleach based counter spray and even cleanser for a tough stain! If it gets worn out due to the polycrylic I just Re paint and Re coat! I may try the appliance paint though !!! Cool.
That’s my next project. I’ll do a paint effect on the counters with simple acrylics then seal with the poly acrylic times like you said. I’ll just touch up as needed.
Will the acrylic work with the paint
Thank you for this video! It is so helpful!
You're so welcome!
Thank you for this video!
Have you ever tried the countertop paint kits? They're quite expensive, it seems. Wondered if they're worth it.
Probably not if the appliance paint you've used works so well, as you've experienced.
Didn’t really want to spend the money since all it is a bunch of paint you can just buy separately and we were going to get the counters switched out soon. But it has been temping! Thanks for watching.
I corrected my comment as I meant to say 'appliance' paint
@@notahomemaker4474 no worries 😊 I went against my own advise and used the marine paint and it didn’t work sadly. Should have stuck to my true and true appliance paint.
Thank you for this video. I painted mine years ago and poured resin over them. I wonder if I can use this paint over resin???
I’ve never done that before. Maybe try a hidden spot?
What’s wrong with the resin?
Nothing wrong just a lot of work I’m scared of. All the dripping and such. I don’t know enough about it.
Thanks for sharing! This is a big help.
Glad it was helpful!
topside boat paint works well for areas where it won't come in contact with heat. It was great it my bathtub until I filled it with scalding hot water.
Oh no so sorry that happened to you.
Wish I had seen this before I bought the topside paint for my tub.
I’m currently researching my options here and appliance paint is an interesting choice. I’ll be considering that for sure.
Did you apply a clear top coat in any of these? That might address the issues you had around the sink and such.
Other videos I’m seeing suggest the following: repair defects, clean, sand, mineral spirits, two coats primer, dry six hours, two coats paint, dry four hours, two coats clear topcoat, cure 24 hours, light use for two weeks before complete cure.
Yes that should work with the other paints but I noticed with the appliance paint those things were not necessary which was true, the appliance paint was the most reliable. Thanks for watching!
@@OurClassicHome thank you!
You're very welcome!!
If you're interested in a durable paint on surface for your countertops, try a product called Stone coat countertop. You can find all the information about it on RUclips. I have used it and it is amazing. And Very durable. And it is non toxic and has no horrible fumes.❤
Yes my friend told me about it. I just didn’t want to invest more than $30-50 since I’ll be swapping the counters soon. But I did hear it’s really good. Thanks for watching!!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I will definitely get appliance paint
It’s the best in my opinion
Thanks for the video. I'm getting ready to order paint for my kitchen counters and cabinets (appliance), bathroom shower and tub surround (marine), and mud room floor (floor ???). There is a specific paint for floors but, I'm going over linoleum not ceramic tile. I would like your opinion on which paint would be most durable for the mud room floor. I've seen they now have a farm and implement paint as well. I'm sure it would hold up on the metal faucet assembly but not sure about covering vinyl ???
I’ve haven’t done any indoor floors yet, for outdoor and I used patio concrete paint by Valspar and so far so good and it’s been more than a year.
Calidad! Muy buena presentación!
Muchas gracias! ❤️
Very very helpful! How long did you use the appliance paint for though? Did you move out right away or were you able to see how long it lasted?
It was a good 1.5 years and I sold it that way the realtor loved it and asked me how to do it for her moms house and the buyer loved it too. No complains!
i am finally ready to paint my countertop tank you so much before see your video it is a night mare for me beacause to much stuff in home depot and somtime the staff know nothing on this stuff...tank again sorry for my english i am french 🙂
You can do it!
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Do you suppose I could use the appliance paint in a shower with ceramic tiles or would it be too slippery?
Hi! I’ve only used it on countertops so I’m not sure…sorry. I have heard of people using on tile but I’m not sure about walking on it because of the slippery surface.
Thank you great review !!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have used bin on wall and ceilings with great results. Do you think I should use the bin on my formica countertops before I apply the appliance paint?
I didn't have any luck with BIN on my formica counters. Why don't you test it out somewhere you cant really see.
Great. Thanks so much for sharing 😊
My pleasure 😊
I'm considering appliance paint as a base. Then rustoleum stone effects spray paint & polyacrylic as final coat. Thought?
That sounds like a good base since it hardens as a shell. I’ve never used stone effects but I recently saw a lady paint her countertops with acrylics and then put the poly like you said as a sealant. It looked soooo good!!! That’s actually my next video!!
Will the acrylic paint adhere to the Appliance paint I know the Polly goes on top to seal it all I'm contemplating doing that
@@1cleosmom I ended up using a product called "Beyond Paint" as my base coat. I then applied several coats of Rustoleum "stone effects", added "veining" & sealed it with poly. Looks amazing! It has held up through Thanksgiving & Christmas with a house full of family & friends. Hope this helps.
thats awesome!
The appliance epoxy works great!!
Yes it does! We love it!
@@OurClassicHome. Just to clarify when you used the appliance paint for your countertop: NO primer and NO topcoat/sealer of any kind… Correct?
Thanks for your response.
@@gigics6695 Correct, if the counters are dark you may need 2 coats though.
Rostelum have other colors or just white color???
Your counters look amazing and i want paint mine too they are very old
Thanks
They do have other colors. You can check them out on their website.
@@OurClassicHome
Thanks 😊
What about yellowung over time? Will I need a kind of coating to prevent this?
Luv your outcome
Not the appliance paint. feel the surface of your fridge..that's how it comes out, no need for a top coat and it is not suggested on the can. It comes out like a great hard shiny shell. Thanks for watching!
Are your counters laminated, and you were able to pain them with appliance paint and it worked well?
They sure did! Yes 👍
Of course, this is assuming you want to paint your countertop white. I am trying to paint my WHITE laminate a darker color, so I'm not sure how appliance paint would work for me.
there are other colors like black in a spray paint and there is gray too. You can always get a bit of brown spray paint and mix into the white can of appliance paint to make a beige for example
I'm about to do a small 2x4 faux marble counter in my bathroom. After many peoples reviews of using the appliance epoxy I'm going with that. Wasn't aware there was going to be a smell. There is a vent but now window.
Then marble effect and for a topcoat deciding between a two part epoxy or Minwax Polycrylic. Why have you never used a seal coat of any kind?
The paint instructions do not require a topcoat.
What kind of paint are you going to use and will it adhere to what you're putting on there
Stonecoat with epoxy? Was that a consideration in this scenario?
I would have but we would have needed about 4 kits. I rather save for the countertops.
Do you think applying the counter top paint then the appliance paint worked the best or go straight to the appliance paint.
Go straight to the appliance paint 100%!
Just curious why you didn't put a clear top coat over the appliance paint? Lowes has one that goes on thick and is for specific for bars and table tops etc? seems like it would keep it from chipping staining etc?. We will be painting our countertops with the appliance paint soon..Is it tintable?
Theres no need. It is appliance paint and epoxy, feel the surface of your fridge..that's how it comes out, no need for a top coat and it is not suggested on the can. It comes out like a great hard shiny shell. Thanks for watching!
Paint peels so easily or gets damaged by using a knife by mistake or some hard object that falls gently. how will this paint countertop last? is it really a decent idea ?
Its appliance paint think of it like cutting on your fridge. Its pretty durable, BUT i would never cut on a countertop no matter what it is, marble, laminate, quartz. Always use a cutting board for cutting and a trivet for hot items. Hope that helps! thanks for watching!
Wow… that orange 😳
I know!! Yuk! It was everywhere and on the outside too. The house is beige outside with an orange 70s stipe across it. The house was built in 1997 like why bring your 70s with you ewww. And the tile floors too. So much orange 🍊
I would be interested to know if any of those are “food safe”. 🤷🏻♀️
When it’s cured it’s a hard shell. But food safe as in cutting on the countertop? I wouldn’t do that no matter what countertop i have. It’s made for appliances so think refrigerator, stove, etc all belong in the kitchen. Thanks for watching!
How about cooking stains? For example, any stains from yellow Turmeric? or red tomato splashes?
If I got a stain i used bleach and it would go away. Thanks for watching!
Thank you, VERY helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Epoxy paint is the way to go for countertops, that’s why the second one worked. Dries super hard.
Yes always!
