[@keepingitreal6793]

I am very impressed and your countertop looks awesome. After ready many of the comments and understanding the pros and cons, I still think epoxy countertops are a great option when granite, etc. are not in the budget. Although I have 27 years of commercial / industrial construction experience and enjoy taking on challenging DIY projects, I would be hesitant taking on an epoxy counter top of this complexity without an experienced advisor to guide me. Although I’ve completed many DIY projects with little push back from my wife on the design, etc., I think having the professionals at Stone Coat Countertops design and fabricate our countertops would save me from a domestic. LOL 😉 P.s. I really like the finish product however, I would’ve painted (flat black) the underside of the overhang to give it a finished look. I might of also installed a reglet and LED strip lighting in the overhang to give ambiance lighting to the cabinetry. Thanks again for sharing.

[@artmichel5572]

Always enjoy watching you guys work your different ideas. If I (when I) were to do this to my kitchen or bathroom, I would roll a bit of dark color more or less to match the main color, underneath so as to not have it stand out as plywood. Other than this, great job and thanks!

[@juliejenkins2376]

Yes! I totally agree. At the very least, they could've painted it black.

[@jeffdarling6490]

Mike, you’re a mind reader. I was just drawing up my island top a few days ago and decided since it’s 4’ of cabinets I’d split the top down the center, pull out to my overhang and nightlights down the center. My wife wants pure white with a touch of diamond dust so I’ll do a translucent white down the center. Awesome video!

[@jabawockee199]

I used to install granite countertops years ago. Something that extravagant back then would’ve probably been $80-90 sq/ft. We also hung our sinks with silicone. We didn’t screw them in place unless they were cast iron farm sinks. We’d silicone the the sinks without tape as well. Smooth em with your smallest finger and then wipe over it with a paper towel soaked with acetone. Perfection.

[@Jimmeh_B]

Hah! Thanks man. I don't even know how I ended up on this channel, but tomorrow I start a new job for a company that only does two things. Waterproofing, and silicone caulking. Looks like I'm buying a couple of bottles of acetone on my way in in the morning. Maybe they already use that technique, or maybe you just gave me a shortcut from the lower pay rate as a trainee, to the higher pay rate as "competent". I've done tiling before, but always just relied on spit and ya finger for smoothing joints.

Our company does this stuff as a add on service. I will tell you folks the truth about epoxy coatings on counter tops because it’s a very small part of our business and I honestly don’t care if anyone ever asks for it to be done. 1. I don’t care who says it , which product gets used or who does the work, epoxy coatings will not look new for very long and never as good as once done after 6-12 months of normal use. Polishing it will never make it look like polished glass as it does when first applied. 2. We’ve been in business for 29 years and I can tell you folks with money and who live in high end homes ARE NOT having epoxy coated countertops done in their homes. Yes it can save someone money and looks ok for a Short while depending on your standards or if your remodeling a flip home. Other than that don’t waste your money on epoxy. Note I didn’t name my business or say what’s better because I’m not trying to sell you myself or any service. Just giving you the honest truth about epoxies. Just like I tell customers if after this info you still want it then at least your were informed and can make your own decisions .

[@escapedcops08]

That's something people don't grasp when the topic of epoxy comes up. It doesn't harden into a material sturdy enough to handle the rigors of daily use.

[@NYEK_GTR_]

Would it look decent if you get a custom piece of glass place on top of the counter? Or something strong and clear? Just curious.

[@michoacanohh2227]

Easy just put a thin polyaspartic clear over it whenever you need to. After you sand down for a nice bond of coarse.

I work in Granite and watching this was very cool to see. I would love to see the underside that's exposed also coated in a thin layer of epoxy even if it's one color just to hide the plywood. Great work )

I am totally blown away....I am subscribed and I am ready to learn as much as I can from you guys. How long did it take you to be proficient at creating the works of art you create. It is so awesome that your offering to teach people how to get to your level... well maybe I have had to retire from being a contractor for the last 30 years so I am opening my woodshop to the public. I have built basic woodworker items for family and friends but never sold anything publically. That is going to change and having the ability to create projects that I hope to someday be as beautiful as what you produce is another iron in the fire so to speak. I would say $4500 - $5500 dollars for a piece of stone with the colors infused in this piece. That is a total guess because I have never purchased a slab of any kind. Did you say that the final epoxy finish can stand up to 375 degrees of heat without damaging the finish or was it more or less. My brain is firing on all cylinders, swimming in possible things that I could possibly create. I am almost ready to buy a 4' x 8' cnc router so I could just make basic signs and epoxy in the letters. I am sure they would sell. I am very interested in using the epoxy system for doing inlay work connected to designs built on the cnc router. Create unique front entry doors with inlaid epoxy's..etc...... the builds are endless. Your imagination will be the only thing holding you back because you can create some very unique items. Thanks for taking the time to teach all of us out here in Tube land. I really appreciate the effort it takes to shoot the videos and create a well produced video like you produce and they are very well made with a straight forward format. The video doesn't have a bunch of wasted time like some of the other "free" videos out there. The one thing is the constant 8 chords the guitar guy was playing did get a little annoying but that's a small price to pay for what you are teaching. Peace

Love this! It would make an awesome computer desk top as well! Especially that subtle LED lighting. Nice work!

[@StoneCoatCountertops]

Your right! Would you apply a combination of colors or just one solid color?

[@Sticknmove77]

@@StoneCoatCountertops I'd like some combination of light & dark grays, black and a vein or two of turquoise for contrast. That would be modern and awesome.

I am absolutely enthralled...

That was the most satisfying and beautiful video to watch! You guys sure make it look easy. I have lived without kitchen counters or a kitchen sink for over 5 years after a contractor took my money and ran. I may look into trying a test board to see if I can get some of your techniques down. Then maybe try for the real thing. Super satisfying!

Very artsy and incredible work. Never will be as cool as Mother Nature though.
