I did some custom cement counter tops over a decade ago from scratch - Here's another very cool tip!! Buy white cement, use white sand, buy yellow oxide powder and you can literally tint it to a light river sand color. Now - use a white powder cement waterproofer in the cement mix, this will give you a tuscan look with varying tints of the same color - plus it makes the sealer go alot further cos it wont soak in as much - Once you put on the epoxy resin (or whatever sealer) the colors will look amazing. . They bleed out and it really makes form some amazing results - Takes some experimenting but well worth looking into! One important note - for large counter tops that require multiple mixes - mix all the dry goods together first - that way you get a consistent look! This is my own self designed system - done a few jobs and always comes out awesome looking.

@@drewkaree i found a waterproofing powder as opposed to liquid ones.. it helped not soaking up so much of the clear coat (pollyurethane resin - smelly stuff but cure quick :) - but having recently been using epoxy resin the soaking up is not so much an issue. This was over seas but im sure lime powder would have the same effect- it basically gae a really beautiful tuscan/victorian look, like old Italian ceilings.

2 years later, and this is still helping people. I am planning an outdoor kitchen with concrete counter tops. So I won't have so much of the 'mess' issues. Those forms seem like a perfect solution. I have seen other videos where you can use a sander to vibrate the form and underside of the counter to absolutely eliminate bubbles.

It gave the edge a classic 45° angle then I polishes them to a glass finish we had sage color added to it and little lime stones instead of pea gravel. It looked great.

A few small tips that could come in handy- Cover hardy backer with plastic, will further dry time. Use a long level to check from as many angles as possible. There's a lot of trust in the cabinets 'levelness' in using the forms. Use a longer mag trowel in initial screed, long enough to touch front to back. Vibrate under countertop (palm sanders work well) to get best consistency. Use a pool trowel to further finish concrete* (tricky but rewarding) Sand countertops with fine grit before seal. Knock down sharp edges with sand paper or stone. Pretty good video overall, but could use a few pointers.

As a decorative mason i love this video never heard of the concrete solutions countertop forms, definately will use in the future. However a good tip for getting a nice "beveled" or "bullnose" edge without having to grind or router it is to use a bead of silicone caulk in every hard corner of your form and use a caulk tool or your finger to give it a nice rounded edge.saves time and money so you dont need to buy a router or expensive concrete beveling blade

Any edging tool used same as doing a sidewalk or drive would work. From the very slight 1/4” edge right up to a bold 1” radius edge. I used to cut pvc pipe to create lower bullnose forms when doing house steps. Then used a matching (or reasonably close) edger to do the top edge. (But I’d have steeled to surface more than just the once? To give a harder polished surface.)

I used a mix called "Sakrete 5000". It had fiber mesh, mostly sand and Portland. No aggregate. I used 3 layers of colored acid stains to make a patina which looked sick. Could you have stained these counter tops before you sealed them? Nice work man.

Excellent, detailed instructions !!! Can't wait to do this too. Question, can you add a colorant to get different colors? Thanks for sharing this video!

Yes but you’d probably want to use white cement to get the best colors they have concrete dye

Used this awesome system about 7 years ago and it is very DYI friendly. The recommendations are spot on - wish I had been able to watch this video before we did it. Do add plastic everywhere: front of cabinets, floor and a few inches above the counter too as your tools will be running against the wall. However do not like the concrete sealer shown. We found after a year or so what started as tiny holes became larger and the moisture that seeps through will discolor the concrete. We probably had done something wrong, but you may too. We ended up removing it (very hard to do completely as it is basically an epoxy - lots of scraping and sanding) and used the Cheng sealer instead. This one is super simple to apply and if it wears, you simply apply some more. Wish we had used the Cheng product from the start.

Looking to doing an exterior BBQ/kitchen area. I will definitely be watching a few more of your videos and using this system. Much easier than anything I've seen

If you pre drill your form it won’t pop up when you’re screwing it down. Makes it much easier to keep miters tight

I used the exact same product for my countertops and they also turned out amazing! I went with a charcoal tint and I also wet polished them with diamond pads. The wet polish looks amazing because it really shows off the beautiful aggregate in the concrete, but damn, was that a freaking mess. I had plastic sheeting covering the floor and from floor to ceiling, it seriously looked like a Dexter kill room in my kitchen. But even with all that protection the wet polisher shot slurry all over the place and there were waterfalls pouring over the countertops pooling onto the floor, my buddy was unable to keep up with the shop vac to keep the water under control. An absolute mess but they turned out gorgeous. Maybe you can do a video on how to do these with a wet polisher, you may come up with a better solution to the crazy mess I had to deal with.

@@tefaniademadeiros7476 after you seal them they are very stain resistant. I sealed mine with bees wax and after a year I have no stains. As for strength, I am fat and I stand on my counters .

Loved your video. Definitely going to do this. A good solution I learned is using an oscillating tool with a sanding pad as a vibrator to eliminate air bubbles. Hope this helps.

Awesome work boys! Just wondering if people add colours or effects to the finished product and is it a difficult process to do? Thanks for the tutorial. Learnt alot. The only thing that worries me is getting products that you've used cos I'm in Australia lol! I'm sure that we have similar products here but different brands and names. We call hardie boards cement sheeting down here.

Just wanted to say, I watched this video a few months ago & decided I'd have a go at upgrading my English Yorkshire farm house kitchen tops from the old horrible woodchip tops to concrete. But I went one step further & placed down copper pipes at an slope towards my sink as a trainer. All I had to do was carefully grind the ends of the drainage grooves so water does flow off into the sink. I couldn't find the sealer you used however, probably only available in the US, but after some advice, I went with food safe concrete oil specifically for water sealing concrete counter tops. So big thank you for the inspiration. What should have cost me £600-£700 for a wooden replacement, it only cost me £200.

I have always asked myself how Chip Gaines creates this perfect glass-like finish on his concrete countertops. I knew there had to be some kind of coating. Finally, I know the secret! :-) Thanks for sharing this information across the Atlantic ocean, where concrete normally is not used insider kitchens at all. ;-)
