You can also splatter some color onto the countertop, then using a blow dryer move the paint around to get a natural streak pattern

Yeah on cold setting , never want to speed the curing process with heat but it does make cool designs

@AndrewLeeW1 Жыл бұрын

@@CHIRAQSAVAG3This depends on how deep you make the epoxy though. Heat guns are used to pop the bubbles inside the epoxy. If its just a very thin layer that wouldnt have bubbles then cold or hot setting wouldnt really matter.

@AndrewLeeW1 heat torch always matters thin or think on all epoxy if you want a smooth finish and want it done the first without going back to sand and buff 😉

@@CHIRAQSAVAG3you can absolutely apply heat to epoxy. Unless you hold a flame to it until it smokes, you will be totally fine. It just thins the material temporarily.

Wait can I just put a couple coats of epoxy over my current countertops instead of actually painting them? We like the finish bc they are white with little speckles of color so I think epoxy should just give us that nicer finish right? Right now ours are getting really rough to the touch from cleaning them over and over
