Thank you for the demonstration. The people who gave you constructive criticism were also very helpful. The people who were just nasty aren't helping, no matter how much they know. They are just being nasty.

This paint is meant to be more of an overlay of the stone texture, not meant to use for the full coverage. I'd recommend painting the countertop whatever stone color you want, and do 1-2 coats in bursts with the spray paint for the stone look. It will save tons of time. Also, you don't need to sand it.

Well i did this yesterday! Easy and looks great! I chose not to sand mine, i let it dry good overnight and then applied the topcoat on let it dry 2 hrs and then another. Absolutely love this. I also want to mention i did apply a white primer on mine. Glad i did. I only put 3 coats of spray and its beautiful.

Great job!!! Did this exact same thing to a non kitchen countertop in my last home. It lasted for years. Still in great condition when I moved.

Thank you for making this dummy proof. Literally the best video I found

I love these videos!! I definitely need to try one of them on my counters! Thanks for the tutorials.

Just bought a house with light pink kitchen counters so I plan to do this when I move in ! Thanks for the very clear directions !

How easy & looks outstanding ! I am going to try this on my OLD countertops thank you! :)

It's gorgeous! Well done!

To fix the corners where too much paint was sanded away, you can spray some of the paint into a container and use a small paint brush to touch things up.

I love the final result!! Thank you so much!

Looks great!! I love this look!!

Love it. Looks great!

Looks amazingly like real granite! Wish I knew this years ago! Thanks

I'm definitely gonna try this, I'll apply a base coat first, great job.

Looks good. I did my bathroom and fireplace and looks great!!

It looks amazing.

Awesome video looking at doing this with my kitchen worktops . Thanks so much for sharing 👌👌

It looks lovely. I will try it

Love it!❤ I may consider doing something similar to mine. Thanks for the idea!

I’m going to try this on a bathroom vanity and add some super fine mica for stone-like sparkle then coat it with the topcoat.

I was looking for ideas to paint my subwoofer and this came up. I think it will be something different and cool looking to try. We'll see...

Looks great !

I’m going to try this in my bathroom. Thanks alot.❤️

It works well just make sure you use a lot of the spray can paint and use 3-4 coats of clear and allow to dry well

wow so quick love it

Looks great

Goog job . Best video so far.😃

Wow nice and easy , thank you

This is beautiful! I did my bathroom in the same top u have on the first one last night, it looks good but I’m thinking to do this one soon

Looks nice very real

You should have put a white primer so you had a blank canvas to work on...it looks good though 😍

How has the clear coat held up to water, heat and stains? I am doing a kitchen counter top and would like to know.

Did you ever do a follow up on this one? I’m curious how it’s holding up.

Hi. Good diy! How has your countertop held up this far??

Thanks for the tutorial. The 90 degree edges are not a friend of paint. I always sand down the edges so the paint will adhere and not easily get dinged off.

So it’s been almost 5 months, how is it holding up? I have an island I’d like to do with that paint.

Love it! Does this work on laminate?

Thanks Kirsten Dunst!

Sand it better , add a tinted primer , and you will only need a few coats of paint , then coat it with the poly the next day after it TOTALLY dries , it will flatten out itself , no more sanding needed before poly ..then wait 1 full day between coats of poly ( probably 2 is enough),, if you don't rush it it is less labor , product , and money but a few more days and a much better finish and lasts longer .

Thank you so much send more to Puerto Rico, Homedepot, Arecibo.

This is a good idea. I might do something similar but I'd recommend doing an oil based polyurethane for the top coat as it will be much more durable than an acrylic based product.

Iv been thinking about trying this on my kitchen wall tiles. Do you think it will work?

How often is every once in a while. Are u saying months or years. How long has your counter top been down?

I love this idea, may I know how it has held up?

could something like this be used on a small bathroom floor that would mostly be covered with a runner rug?

How durable is it? we’re planning on doing our counter tops in the bathrooms and kitchen

Best tutorial I've seen so far!👍

Thank u I just did my own

How many cans did you use for the island.

Might be better using clear epoxy on top. Looks very beautiful ! As does the counter top .

Can I find this stone texture paint in a quart or gallon size?. If I use the spray, I don’t know if I can get the texture on even. Any ideas on how to do this the most feasible way?

This video is older but did the Polycrylic topcoat hold up? I'm painting countertops now...its a temporary thing..and the paint guy recommended the Polycrylic. I am undecided 😕 please let me know how long it has lasted..thanks

How does it hold up to warm/ hot pots/ pan?

I used the giani white diamond countertop kit just recently and I've noticed some bumps and lines where I must of pressed to hard when added topcoat. Do you think I can sand lightly and add a coat of polyacrylic to it to smooth out? Countertops are laminate.

What base coat would be good to use before this? I have imbedded rust stains on my bath counter

Nice video! Really cool idea. A couple of years ago I handpainted my countertops with the Giani Marble Kit and sealed them with the same Polycrylic that you used. My only complaint is that I am not able to use standard cleaners as it removes the polycrylic coating. I can only use Dawn and water. Do you have any other suggestions for a different top coat? Thanks!

Question: is this countertop food grade after using this method? Another question: would you pls post links where these items can be purchased?

super!

If you did not want to see the old look at all, then why not prime after sanding? Likely could have done less coats of the new paint. Also, good tip for others would be to change your spray pattern, it will help fill pattern voids. But looks nice in the end!

I don't know if I missed it but I would like to ask you what kind of material is the top? Is it wood, or something else? Thank you for your demonstration.

Can you use this method over old Formica?

I really want to do this, but I want to use the black granite color, and it is really hard to find that color. I saw another video where they painted it white and just sprits the black granite paint over it in burst and it looked like a white granite with black flecks, and that's what I would like mine to look like. :)

May I ask why you didn't use a base primer to cover your last project and give you a base for the new one? It would have taken a lot less spray paint.

Will this support a regular hot food plate?

Would primer help with less coats?

How many square feet is your kitchen island? Great videos, btw. I subscribed to your channel.

I'm trying to estimate the number of cans I need. How big the kitchen Island? I noticed you did 7 coats and used to 2 cans

Is the polycrylic food safe?

Your supposed to paint an under coat and lightly spray the stone on top.

Water Stains: So I just completed an island with this exact technique, thanks to this video. An issue that has popped up: When you place anything with condensation or just spill on it the spot will become hazy or white. That will not go away until all the water is gone through evaporation. I have learned that a hair dryer may help on a low setting but it will not show instant results. If you are waiting for instant results you will get a jelly coating and that will distort the coating. My best results came from just placing a dry towel over the top of it and letting it soak in. I have seen others say that using alcohol helps to make it go away quicker but was afraid to try it. Needless to say it does go away. The only other tip i can give is to make sure that you do sand it as stated if you want a smooth finish. If you do not it will have a textured finish even after 5 coats. I love the look of it and it has made a huge impact on the look of our kitchen. I am planning on doing a full remodel in a few years so this was a great facelift until then! Thank you for a great step by step video!

I would prime spray first, with a light spray colo

7!!! Oooo no girly...

Is it resistant like epoxy?

Post to use Paul your thing for a clear top coat it's called a Polish coat exactly and that means you can buffer it to Polish it

It looks Great! Did you like this one better? Did it hold up better than the previous project? I have neck/spine issues so I need an easy project but one that looks great to go along with other kitchen updates (to sell home). Thanks for sharing this video!😊

Can you tell us how it's holding up, it's been 3 months.

Would u try Stone Coat Countertop's top epoxy top coat? Light sand & use it. Suppose to be high gloss, resist scratches & heat resist. I'd be interested if it would work??? & see demonstration.

How has this kept up with normal wear and tear? Are you still happy with it?

Instead of sending why not use a thin layer of epoxy? It will cover the texture and keep the shine indefinitely.

Looks nice. I really liked the look of what it was prior also. Did you do that as well? If so can you provide that info please! ❤

How is it holding up ????

Hi. Thanks for these great videos. I mistakenly used Polyacrylic instead of water based polyurethane (Lowe's had it sitting right next to their oil based polyurethane). Now, months later, the paper from boxes, like cereal or popcorn, sticks to the polyacrylic. I then have to scrape the paper free. How can I fix this?

It looks really nice but I’m not sure if that polyurethane is suitable for a food prep surface.

Does it really need 7 coats?

This would last about one day.

How did it keep up a year later?

Is the top coat food safe?

No base coat or primer?

Is that a 600 grit sandpaper?

Hi. How is this holding up?

Where is the follow up. I wanted to know how the countertops are holding up.

How many cans did you use?

Is this simulating cement?

I did this and it looks good except I don’t have a shiny surface like you got

This one looks good.. I think I like it better..

The edges were supposed to have been done first. To make the rest more even to prevent losing the paint like what happened to you. It looks great. Tksfs.

I would think you would need to roll on a base color and then spray paint the stone paint on. But why would you want to change the gorgeous previous one you had?

How is holding up?

Nice video. Can you apply this product straight over lightly sanded laminate countertops (which are plastic)?
