Hiya looks good. I'm going to attempt it soon. At which point go you use the heat guy for the bubbles?

[@Coolbreeze61]

Right after you pour it but don't get too close with the heat gun and don't stay in one place too long, please subscribe I'm only 1 subscriber from one thousand

[@nimajnebrm]

End result looks much better than you think it would, nice job.

[@Coolbreeze61]

Thanks for watching, I love how it turned out

[@ricksilva6087]

Great video and lots of good tips. I did a small bar top. I was so close to perfect...but I had to try and put a little more on and messed it all up..lol..so I sanded the waves down. My problem/question: what do I use to clean the sanding scratches so they don't show through when I apply again? I have been using mineral spirits but when it drys I still see the scratches.

[@Coolbreeze61]

The answer is you have to blend the scratches with the wood, in other words it has be perfectly smooth (it's so hard to do that sometimes it's easier to just start over with a new piece of wood)

[@veronicatrevino7550]

Hi, I know this is an older video but I used this as a newer tumbler maker and it gives me a horrible headache. The smell for me is awful to the point of a headache. It’s great that it works for you and others. My mistake is not wearing a respirator mask, I have read ppe is key to safety.

[@Coolbreeze61]

Sorry it didn't work out for you but thanks for watching (I hope you subscribed)

I'm gonna do my car with this stuff.☝😝

[@Coolbreeze61]

I would not recommend that, very messy and if it goes wrong it's going to take a lot of work to fix if it can be fixed

[@zoraidagutierrez9868]

Thank you so much for the video 👍 I have a question this product has a lot of smell it's because I'm in winter season and I want to use it 😀 thanks I hope you get this massage

Thank you so much... the video is extremely effective for a first timer. I am confident that my butcher block countertop is going to be gorgeous! Thanks again!

[@silklove2158]

I don’t know if this particular product is food safe for your butcher block. You might want to check on that first.

[@SuAmigoElilegal]

How long this can last and also if you poke it with fingernails or something sharp will it create a dent or a hole in the finish

[@Coolbreeze61]

Not sure on how long it lasts, no to the other question but that also depends on how hard you try to create an endention

[@avalimpa]

Thanks for the video. Do I need a seal coat on top of primed and painted furniture?

[@Coolbreeze61]

I really don't know I'm not an expert on the stuff but thanks for watching

[@rogueusa9684]

Looks great. How many coats do you usually do? I’m about to coat a 12”x6’ piece of poplar for a counter top. I bought the 1 quart size. Will I use the whole thing or will I have leftover? Thanks!

[@Coolbreeze61]

I only do one coat and it normally turns out to be 1/8in thick, as for how much you'll need is up to you, I put mine on very liberally

[@rbgn51]

How did it turn out Rogue?

[@davidgrammer799]

Soo I hope you still see the comments being a year later. Kind of new to these types of projects. I refinished a table top and painted it black. I thought a glaze coat would look good. I just did the pour. It doesn’t seem to be even. I made sure the table was level, and the paint job cured for a week before I started. It’s at the point of no return now. Will it level itself out, or will I have to sand this thing down and do more coats? Anyone have any ideas?

[@Coolbreeze61]

So sorry for the very late reply, for some reason I don't get notification of new comments anymore and that started last year. The leveling out is depending on how Dependent long you waited to pour it on and how much heat you apply when getting the bubbles out, it you hold the heat in one area to long it speeds up the hardening and then it won't level at all

[@Coolbreeze61]

It will level itself out if it can

[@Mustbefate]

Hey friend, just an update. After 7 days, the thin coat I applied was still tacky. Yes, I did a 1:1 ratio. Not happy. Should've done a test coat on a different piece. I guess the mistake I made was thinking the Famowood was more like an epoxy based product and expected that final result. End of story is I used JB Weld epoxy over the undried Famowood and got the result I was looking for. Now I will say I absolutely loved the sheen from the Famowood. So my question to you is- How thick of a coat did you do on that table, and how long did it take to set?

[@Coolbreeze61]

I've never had a problem with it being tacky/sticky after 24 hours in fact i can usually handle it the very next day (did you do yours In-doors or out-doors). my coats are 1/8 inch or as thick as i can get, I've wasted a lot of glaze coat trying to get it thicker. To date I've gone through approx 7 gallons of it. I'm sorry your experience was bad

[@Mustbefate]

@@Coolbreeze61 No worries, like I said...it puts a beautiful sheen on the wood. I did mine indoors at around 66 degrees and it's dry weather.

[@konjiki240sx]

Admittedly the first time I used the product the end result was a little tacky. However I didn't follow the instructions in doing a sealing coat. It was tacky for a week.... 2nd time using it I didn't experience this. Temps were around 68f both times around.

[@bilalkarah5710]

William B it may have been the temperature. It recommends 70 degrees and up. I’m doing this over a coffee table tomorrow in my garage, hopefully the weather makes for a good result. Thanks for the advice on if it doesn’t work out.

[@jeremiahjordan7229]

looks awesome! thanks for making this video, im about to do the same on a eastern red cedar bar top and your video will be of great use sir, ive never done it before so it will be an experience for sure. gonna try a decent sized test piece and go from there.

[@Coolbreeze61]

you may have to put 2 coats on depending on if the clear coat soaks in more than expected, (that happened to me), if that does happen you'll need to wait a day or two so that it cures completely and then you'll need to sand the whole surface (just enough to scuff it up) and the reason for that is so that you'll be able to see where you've missed when putting on the second coat other wise if you don't sand it it is really hard to see where the new coat vs old coat is. if you haven't already please subscribe and if you know of any one else that might be interested in something like this please share it with them. good luck

[@cindymckinnis7433]

I used this product on a 5'x6' 3D floor after spending $200 on the image placing it to floor and cleaning and immediately pouring. First it din't level well after the 3rd coat we mastered having it level and found no bubbles. Had nice shine. Here is the problem this product is not hard. It scratches easily an clouds as a result. After about 3 months it was peeling off own to the vinyl. And floor was garbage. After 8 days work and a lot off money the floor needs covered with rug to not destroy expensive image. If your using on something with little use this product may be fine. But NOT for heavy use!!!

[@Coolbreeze61]

sorry you're not happy with it, I'm still loving mine but yes i am very careful with it (mine is actually a a kitchen counter top in an RV and has been covered since installing it do to construction around it), I hope that doesn't happen to mine because I don't know what I would use in it's place

[@jah12879]

It's not for floors

[@samanthaoneill5045]

The instructions say it is not for floor

[@genuismensa]

They literally make floor epoxy for what you are trying to do. This is a bar top coating meant for wood...

[@nicolemartinez3897]

Can u lighty torch the surface to remove (pop) bubbles?

[@nicolemartinez3897]

Nvm shouldve watched the video before i left a comment 😉

[@Coolbreeze61]

not sure, I used a heat gun for that and in some places held it there too long burnt it, just can't hold it in one place too long

[@notsoshortbus1651]

seems like you could sand it smooth and buff it with buffing wheel and buffing compound

[@Coolbreeze61]

I think that would take longer just sanding it down, I don't think i'm going to take this one down to the wood and see what happens. You would believe how much glaze coat I've wasted trying to get these pieces right

[@muddyriverdogz]

How easy does that scratch ? Do you get water rings if you leave a glass on top of it ?

[@Coolbreeze61]

Sorry for the late reply but I don't always get the message notifications, I really haven't paid much attention to it, there maybe fine scratches but I haven't noticed any major scratches

[@jameshumann3988]

Dude im so grateful you made this video. Im trying to use this on my surfboard and it helps so much to see how the resin is going to behave. Thank you

[@new4vols1]

Did you use it? I bought the qt for a table top but the instructions make it seem like it’s not enough to cover.. seems like it should be more than enough

[@jameshumann3988]

new4vols1 nah, ended up returning it and using surfboard resin lol

[@new4vols1]

James Humann good choice. I used it on a table top I made and it’s a mess. I had to do a second coat and the stuff was prob 150° after I stirred according to directions. So I have to chip some off and do a 3rd coat

[@gaknskk]

Does this product have a strong smell that will stink up the whole house ???

[@Coolbreeze61]

Not really

[@chrism5487]

Those turned out beautiful.

[@WeMe83]

Good stuff but wouldn’t it be safer to do that in a well ventilated area?

[@Coolbreeze61]

I was concerned with dust getting on it also the heat dries clear coat faster

[@zackmassey8258]

Will, shut up.

[@johnmorgan1313]

Why do both sides? That stuffs expensive

[@jessegarcia123]

Thank you for the review! Much appreciated!

[@shawnmcadoo1960]

Did u use a seal coat before the epoxy?

[@Coolbreeze61]

No, if you do that I don't think it'll come out as good

[@joebaker9861]

I just used this product on a new wood counter. I ended up using two coats because the first coat became my seal coat. After it dried, i gave it a light sanding with 400 grit paper to open any remaining bubbles. I had to do that because with it being new wood, it kept producing bubbles, even though I was using a torch to pop them. After sanding and wiping with a tack cloth, I poured a second coat. I "tented" the counter over night with a big sheet of plastic. The next day, I was floored when I saw the final results. That was my first experience with any kind of epoxy resin. Now I know to put a very thin seal coat and then a nice thick top coat. The gloss is like glass. I'm already working on my next project.

[@Coolbreeze61]

@@joebaker9861 glad your happy with it, I have had so many compliments on the wood I did

[@ccccen]

Has it turned yellow on you?

[@Coolbreeze61]

No but my wood is dark. I know this when I use regular polyurethane on light wood it does have a yellowish tint to it even though it clearly says clear coat on the can. Thanks for watching

Oil based
