[@jonathanmolina3529]

Couple of tips here. First, you don't need to take off the texture before the epoxy. All you need is sanding. The epoxy, when poured correctly (around 6 Oz. per sq foot) is thick enough to cover everything. Secondly, the recommended way of making it look like marble is not to draw the design before the epoxy. The best and most natural marble effect comes when making the design with the epoxy. Basically, you use white paint or pigment mixed with the epoxy and then make a small mix with the gray by mixing a little of black into epoxy. You pour the white first and then make the veins with the "gray" epoxy mix. You then spray 91% isopropyl alcohol or over over the veins to make a more natural effect. Also, always use epoxy that is specially made for countertops which contains no VOC and no mask is needed. You also want to use a mixing cup or bucket to measure the exact amount since a little less or more part B will cause soft spots. Another thing and sorry for the big comment. I just want to help you learn. Epoxy has to be pour thick and it cannot make that "paint" sound. When it does that it means there's not enough epoxy. By the way, I am a renovation contractor specialized and certified in epoxy designs so that's how I know. Honestly, any question you have I am available.

[@1JuneReed]

The epoxy started fuming because curing epoxy heats up (it does so in the early stages of curing). The larger the amount, the higher the temperature, and it can melt THROUGH the containers so be careful! Same goes if you want to do a deep pour of epoxy, the heat might melt whatever is around it (if you're using it for crafts, molds, or other things) so you should pour in layers! You don't need to wait the full cure time to pour a second layer, but at least let it sit for a while (for a 24h curing epoxy, I usually let it sit for 5 to 10 hours) Also, epoxy is a delicate medium to work with so I advise you to be very careful, and really be thorough when it comes to PPE! You should always wear a respirator even with "non-toxic" brands. Often they are non-toxic when CURED but not so much during mixing and pouring. So just to be safe, wearing a respirator is worth it! The "surgical masks" do not protect you for anything, they're barely efficient for dust as well by the way so do use proper respirators when sanding, it's no fun to have whatever you sand in your lungs (and long term exposure to that with poor to no PPE use leads to lung diseases, it happened to a family member...) Always wear respirators and preferably long sleeves when sanding epoxy! Epoxy in the organism is really not good....

[@MissEmJayC]

Few tips from someone who works with resin. 💜 Firstly, I don't think there are any resin brands that are safe to use without a respirator. Even those who say non toxic. There is no such thing as non toxic resin. So always wear a respirator and gloves! There are very few brands that are food safe. Never put any food on anything made from resin or any resin item in your mouth. Like the resin spoons & shot glasses (they should be avoided!) Cake stands would be okay if there was something under the cake like baking paper. You should avoid resin ash trays because heating the resin is a bad idea as it can release toxic fumes. As Mia said, do not leave mixed resin in large quantities. Resin has a work time & if the resin is very thick, like in a bucket or jug, it can heat very fast & catch fire. Try to only mix the amount you will need. Also, make sure the resin is suitable for the task. There is resin for shallow pours & resin for thicker pours. Mia said something about the torch starting the curing process but that's not true. It is a chemical process that happens when the resin is mixed together. Lastly, it's better to measure/weigh (depending on brand) in the same container. Resin can be very finicky about measurements. When you pour from one container to another, you will never get every single bit of resin out of the container. So it could throw off the measurements meaning the resin might not cure properly or at all. Sorry for the essay but I spent a lot of time researching resin before I started working with it. I wouldn't want something bad to happen to someone because of it.

[@eliciaanderica8472]

Miss EmJay, question. After the resin had dried, it is still not safe for food? Just asking b/c I want to do my countertop also.

[@lindsy8538]

Is there a sealant that can be put on top of the epoxy to make it safe for food to touch?

[@HereWe_GoAgain]

@@lindsy8538 Stone coat epoxy is UV resistant and food safe, Epoxy, when cured, is generally food safe, as long as it is in compliance with the FDA's thorough regulations but not all epoxies are designed for use with food. Also a respirator is not need when pouring epoxy, only when sanding it. You do not want to breathe in the epoxy dust, I don't mean to disrespect Miss EmJay's comment but she needs to be more informed before making a factual statement.

[@Donna-vh5ym]

[@josefinemarieevjen9309]

A lil tip that I can see no one uses in reno videoes: When you put paint or primer in the plastic thingy (don't know the english word), you put a plastic bag around it so the paint wont be stuck to it afterwards.. and when you are finished painting, it's clean and you don't have to wash it 😃 Also this is very smart when you are painting a room more than one time. Then you let the roll stay in the bag with some paint left in it. And clise it so no air comes in. Then you don't have to wash the roll, and you can start directly when you are ready to the next layer 😁 I hope I explained it good enough. And remember that epoxy can be super dangerous to get on the skin!!

[@Babylungmcgee]

There are plastic inserts for the paint trays that let you work easier than a plastic bag. They are always cheap and definitely worth avoiding the frustration than dealing with a plastic bag.

[@josefinemarieevjen9309]

@@Babylungmcgee nice to know! :-) I have never been annoyed with the plastic bags myself, but it's probably helpful to others. I also use it for the paint roll as I wrote in my comment. It saves both paint and time so I don't have to wash it every time.

Maybe a slate blue? The silver handles would look good.

[@kerinschovanec3864]

I think a darker tone would look nice in contrast with the counters and backsplash as well...although I love Mia her obsession with white knows no bounds lol.

She’s so great, these look awesome! Mia and her family are so wholesome.

I've been wanting to do an epoxy countertop for ages, but I've been too nervous. Now I'm excited and I have so many ideas! Thank you so much Mia and Mama Maples!

[@josefinekofod27]

I was waiting for her to post cuz her posts are always so interesting IN A GOOD WAY!!!! I ditched all the other videos that was posted for this lol

[@sweetgrannybuns2774]

I really enjoyed watching this awesome video & seeing the beautiful results of your Mom’s counter tops. Thanks for a lot of great info.

Mia I have a video idea for u!!!! You should renovate a room with your zodiac sign like all the accessories and the furniture. For example I am an aquarius so for me the room accessories would neon led lights etc. You can research more I hope this helps. Please mention me in the video you do this!

I'm always leaving Mia's videos for my days off and I make myself a coffee and relax first thing in the morning. KZbin is saturated with so many 'KZbinrs' now but Mia is the only one I subscribed to because after all these years it's still a pleasure to watch her videos. Especially with Mama Maples (and random dad appearances) - this family is so wholesome and I hope one day I can have a relationship like this with my children. Thank you for putting up great content for us, Mia & family ^_^

[@livinglife2139]

Being able to say you did the counters yourself is a big flex 💪

[@serenamorales97]

Idk how I’m late to the party, but congrats on 3 million subscribers! I’ve been watching you what seems like forever! Love you Mia!

I love mama maples' airfryer, it's such a cute color, ours is just black.

Wow! This turned out AMAZING! The gloss really looks SO good. I'm about to try this on my dining room table... so I'm really glad I saw your video.

[@shannanlindibanana]

Hey, hoping you guys used food grade epoxy? Or have atleast thought about buying a lot of food prep placemats 🤞🤞 looks great though, good work :)

[@tinabarber4221]

Gorgeous! Really brightens the kitchen!
