We had a great time together, doing amazing things. It was so obvious on all our faces from deep concentration to pure joy that we are a great team. Can't wait for our next adventure!
I'm so excited, I just got my first delivery of epoxy and color from Stone Coat Countertops! I'm about to make my first counter top and I have already decided on many future projects that I have in mind after watching this video!! Thank you SCC!!!
So, I watched the entire video. Either I missed it, or you never said, what it cost approximately. I was waiting for the cost comparison to the $16k for the natural slabs.
Mike, Mitch did give that but it was kind of blink-and-youll-miss-it . At about 25m25s he said "the slabs cost 17k, you can do this with epoxy for 25% of that, leaving you room in your price to add in labor" (that's a slight paraphrase) Now, I haven't these epoxy products but at $4,250 and 300sf, that works out to $14.17 per sq ft with the epoxy. Note that the $17k for the granite slabs was not including the edge finish or seaming the edges together. I'm really surprised at the epoxy cost. The other materials involved are tape, weatherstripping, fiberglass mesh, and the foam panels. So @Stone Coat Countertops, is this material cost ($14/sf) in the proper ball park?
It's a tricky thing to say what it will cost you (the customer). Everyone's cost is different with labor, materials and experience. You do get an idea of the materials used and manpower to make it happen. Yes, to do this with epoxy if much more affordable and offers a huge range of looks depending on skill levels.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love this video for so many reasons! The comrade, the team work, the obvious love and admiration you have for each other shines through! On top of seeing the innovative ideas that you applied to complete this gorgeous backdrop! Great work y’all! You got this! I am praying I will be able to attend classes in 2023. It’s a goal for me! 🥰
It’s amazing what you can do with this epoxy stuff. I what to replace our shower/bathtub with something like this. I saw the template video. I’m just waiting for the money to get everything I need.
Such a fun video!! 🤗 You all working together looked like a blast!! 👍 The results are amazing and a beautiful Rhonda turquoise!! 💙 Please show more pictures of real stone to mimic or give links to natural stone libraries for countertops. My imagination can go off the rails, but if trying to make it look realistic, I need help as I haven't worked with granite.

@@ClaraLawrence yeah I saw that once on the vanilla ice project and I've been obsessed with it ever since it is just amazing and I know it comes in other colors but I really love the green
I wondered the same thing. If they said it was available o their website, I missed it. Click on 'products' at their website, then choose 'All Products.' It was the last item on the last page when I found it. Hope this helps.
I'm gonna try my kitchen counters for my first try using this product. Wish me luck. If it works, I'll do these in my bathrooms next year.. Wwwhhhootwwhhhooo❤
To make pouting easier without having to stand on walls:Consider making a frame around perimeter (use 2x4 to make walls)on top of which you can put a 2” by 10” to walk on. Move the 2x10 to whatever position you want as you pour.Aluminum ladder scaffolding resting on perimeter would also work.
good morning. I make things with resin at home. How to protect the recipe from the heat. Example if they support a glass with hot water marks the resin. Thank you
How do you get rid of the orange peel texture, i can see it through the camera Is there another finishing stage like sanding/buffing upwards to 1000 grit?
Can you really use this panel in the shower? Because it’s on the foam board or was that just done for demonstration of the training? So for a shower panel would it be on wood or mfd panel?
What do you for corners when 2 panel meet? I'm using hardboard to panel over a large toolbox. I need something protective for the corners where the epoxy panels meet.
First of all I gotta say you guys rock thank you so much for all the detailed info on how to get the job done right! I was wondering how the best way to go about making a leveling course on my laminate countertops. There’s a lip at the end that’s about 1/8” proud of the rest of the surface. What’s your take on how to handle this situation? Thank you
I want to do my floor like a meteor hit the floor from the entry that it splashed up the island cabinet landed on the island and trashed the upper cabinets. Can you help?
So I carve foam pumpkins, the Ashland brand, I was curious if you could test out whether I could code it in epoxy to create a very ornate looking pumpkin
Would love to buy your product but your entire Canadian website has zero, absolutely no stonecoat countertop epoxy options. This is wild. Please stock us up North so we can use your beautiful products also :)
This product can NOT be used in a spray gun. The product sets up too fast and you will have to completely dismantle your system to clean it out properly. Do not recommend. As far as dry and wet roller the best way to share this application is to send you to one of Rhonda's videos where she goes into detail. ruclips.net/video/azWuickBjRI/видео.html
I just tried SCC and shortly after mixing it, it heated and hardened. I noticed the first coat was a little stiff (yes, I mixed 1:1 ratio). It wouldn't level out even after torching. I'm so disappointed! I was really looking forward to my new countertops. I studied your videos for over a year before finally diving in. Guess I'll go with paint after I try to remove the epoxy globs from my countertop. 😕
@@lanettemartindale3967 I called and they gave me some tips. I wish the videos mentioned room temp, pouring the product out of the large container soon after mixing, etc. Videos mainly focused on recipes. I scraped the epoxy off, repainted and poured a new batch (right after mixing), which turned out much better!
You can pour over Masonite, but you’ll need to prep well with a bonding primer first. I wouldn’t recommend using Masonite in a shower however. The foam board is water proof making it an idea substrate for shower panels.
Hi I just wanted to let you know that flashing effects added in post production comes with a risk for some of your viewers. Photosensitive seizures. Everyone gets triggered by something a little different, but if you don’t need it please try to avoid it, and if it’s there a medical warning for us would be super helpful. Thank you!
The matte ultimate top coat will really ruin a gloss finish....please test before you use it ...you may be disappointed with the look when it appears to ruin your beautiful finish...the gloss is not too bad....don't get me wrong I am a RK3 design fan and a stonecoat fan....just don't me mislead my the topcoat look
In my opinion, if you’re using the matte finish, you’re trying to knock down that high gloss sheen. I love how the matte looks over certain finishes. Makes it look more realistic and not so much like plastic. I always recommend doing a sample board so you know what to expect before you apply it to your project.
As someone who has both surfaces in their home, I hate to say it but epoxy is not a good long term durable surface. It does scratch. It is sensitive to heat. A warm crockpot on my kitchen island sunk into the surface requiring repair. Stone is much more durable in kitchens. That said I do like epoxy on tables and bathroom vanities, etc. It looks good and it is much cheaper than "real" products but dont expect miracles. Its a plastic coating at the end of the day.
@@thalinororcbreaker2840 The kitchen island was stone coat with the top coat. I have used other much cheaper brands on other projects as well. I am a fan of epoxy in general, but it has its weaknesses. The top coat may help resist scratches but it seems to do nothing for heat resistance. You have to remember what the stuff is. Its a form of hardened plastic. Some are stronger than others. It depends on the amount of BPA (if any) in the product as well as what type and how much of various solvents are in it as well. Im sure plenty of people can use it with good luck if extra precautions are taken not to put hot things on it or bang it too hard. My experience was just that the kitchen was not the place for it.
So, this is pretty concerning to me. I've been slowly getting stoked up to possibly try to maybe someday do out kitchen 🙂, and watched a video that the SC crew did on heat and scratch resistance. But @Boost331s comment kind of brings me to a full stop in my plans. Can we get real-life experience comments from others as well?
@@boost331 I have used a crock pot on mine and not had any problems. Nor have I had any serious scratches, even on stuff without the ultimate top coat. My plant stand has no top coat at all, just a double coat of the art coat and it has two plants on it, one of which is in a huge container that weighs over 20 pounds. It still looks every bit as good as when I first epoxied it, which was a year ago and those plants get moved around quite a bit to get sun on all sides, etc.
I think I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. We've installed in literally 100's of homes, apartments, dorms, rental properties, and medical offices. We've never had normal day-to-day wear and tear, or heat-related issues. When poured in the parameters to allow the epoxy optimal performance, and allowed to cure correctly and properly and taken care of, the product is INCREDIBLE durable, and long-lasting.

Totally AWESOME, YOU ALL ARE A GREAT INSPIRATION TO ALL. THANKS FOR BEING HERE!
I don't like sanding or cutting the drips, so I go back to my projects every half hour to clear the drips with an old credit card.
So do I
If you'll put 1" blue tape along the underside of the edge, then pull the tape after approximately 4 hours, you'll eliminate the bulk of the drips.
@@gaylewilliams4805 Nice
@@gaylewilliams4805 hey Gail, how far back do you put the tape on the underside? 1/8-1/4”?
I place the edge of the tape even with the edge of the underside
