Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️

[@carmelinalouis3587]

What a fabulous effect! An amazing statement. Dare I say would be stunning with a red lacquered cabinet in a gorgeous boutique's powder room. Like a fierce pair of leopard kitten pumps with that 'designer' red lacquer sole. 💓

I just watched the previous video of the hammered copper and this one popped up. OMG Leopard pattern! I'm not going to watch this...Totally amazed at the end result. This is a great project Rhonda and it makes me want to run down to the ReSTORE and grab one and try this! AWESOME!

Thanks. It’s one of my favorites for sure!

🤣🤣. Thanks!!!! ❤️❤️

[@jilllapierre9968]

Incredible makeover and relatively easy. Just what I was looking for. I’ve been binge watching your videos looking for a method at which I could actually succeed. I am overwhelmed with choices in techniques and patterns and very excited to have found this video. Now I’m off to find the perfect foil as I try to reinvent my two 20 + year old plain Jane bathrooms and put off complete renovations for a while. Thank you so much. And I love Your teaching method. Thank you so much.

Oh my goodness! I LOVE IT! You had me at LEOPARD PRINT! My husband did a video of taking a MASSIVE STONE and making a sink / countertop out of it. It's on my channel if you want to check it out.

[@cynthiac3484]

Beautiful old made new! Love it! Can I put resin or epoxy on my granite counter top! Had no idea how much it would streak! No matter how I clean it! What do you think?

[@RK3Designs]

You can apply over granite you’ll just have to prep first with a really good bonding primer such as XIM. We sell this on our website 😊. www.rk3designs.com

[@jlouutube65]

I would have loved to see how you did the heavy coat of resin without it pooling in places or running off too much.

[@RK3Designs]

I pour the epoxy on the flat surface first. Then use my hand or a brush and just continue to reapply on the verticals surface. As it pools I pick it up and reapply. I do this until the epoxy starts to set up. The epoxy that runs down the sink I catch on a bucket and reapply as well. Then I let it dry.

[@nickdrew1859]

Love the leppard look I never knew about foils till now but this is amazing. Meow Rhonda 👍

[@RK3Designs]

Nick Drew they are so much fun!!!!

[@tinabuenzow9992]

I love these foils, i was wondering if you don't want to epoxy it what else is safe to use to seal it or does it have to be sealed? thanks!

[@RK3Designs]

It does have to be sealed. I would think any good waterproof sealer would work. Just have to make sure it doesn’t mask the metallics.

[@tonyafarhad6993]

what is the reason for the black foil first?? cant you omit this step where the base is already painted black? and this is amazing!!!

[@RK3Designs]

Absolutely! But black foil will give a sort of shimmery. You could definitely omit and just use the leopard foil 😊😊

[@tonyafarhad6993]

@@RK3Designs thank you! i should have watched the whole video before asking the question! lolol you answered it a couple seconds after i asked it lol...

[@chrisnash2154]

Loved the film print technique. How do you get an adequate, even flood coat on the backsplash and bowl without it pooling at the bottom or running out the hole?

[@RK3Designs]

Chris Nash that’s a great question. I like to let the epoxy sit just a bit to firm up, then I use a paintbrush and paint it on a little at a time. I rarely use heat on the basin or backsplash to avoid making the epoxy fluid again and run.

[@diyday21]

Amazing project! Thanks a lot!

[@deenaminyard3788]

AMAZING!!!

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!! 😊😊

[@ajitsharma6384]

Could you please tell me what are these foils called so that i can look for them on the internet.This is because i could not understand how the print side which you kept on top got transferred onto the adhesive on surface. Is it so that the print on these foils on actually lower side and upper side is just transparent layer.

[@RK3Designs]

Ajit Sharma the are that are originally used in the textile industry. The only ones I use and recommend come from Artistic Painting Studio follow this link bit.ly/RK3Designs_ 😊

[@ccgsales]

What kind of brush are you using to apply the foil... it looks like a plain old scrub brush. I didn't see it anywhere in your art supplies page.

[@RK3Designs]

Yes, it’s just a scrub brush I bought at Walmart. Just not super stiff.

[@robertaebhert5076]

Could this be done in a tub?

[@mallory885]

Where do you get the foil? It does not show it on your supplies list.

[@RK3Designs]

bit.ly/RK3Designs_. I also sent you a link via Facebook. Let me know if you got it.

[@irisheyzs]

Rhonda, can this be done if the vanity has a drop in sink?

[@RK3Designs]

I'm sure it can be. Just make sure if you go into the actual sink, that you prep it very well with 2 coats of bonding primer, then two coats of your base paint. I use Behr paint and primer in one. Let that dry at least 24 hours then apply the adhesive. If you do yours, I would love to see pictures!! Have fun!

[@irisheyzs]

@@RK3Designs now I'm excited!!!

[@mallory885]

Where do you get the foils?

[@skinnydog4]

Can we completely paint a design on a countertop with spray paints and craft paints, then just clear epoxy over it?

[@RK3Designs]

You bet! Just make sure you give your paint plenty of time to dry😊

[@rustiek7899]

Beautiful! just found you! Saw you at the Summit this year, hope to see you there in April.

[@RichGPilot]

Can the 'Weathered Copper foil' be applied with the same technique or does it require a more aligned technique?

[@RK3Designs]

You could most definitely use that foil. It would be beautiful!!

[@dannydoyle8731]

this looks really cool! Can someone point me to a go-to store for these types of foils? I was disappointed by my googling skills...THANKS!

[@DarkAngel-tj7sk]

Hello.!! I am a new-bee to this product and techniques used to resurface counter tops and sinks. I bought a black marble kit for the counter top. However my sink is not integrated into the counter top. I really wanted to coat my sink in a metallic copper. I bought the epoxy and copper mica powder. Is this doable..? I really want the copper accent for my sink. I appreciate your expert advice. I am a bit scared to try it, because I have never done this before. Please help. thank you so much..!!

[@RK3Designs]

Hi there. You can do the sink. You’ll need to prep very well with a bonding primer first. I use XIM and sell it on our website www.rk3designs.com After the primer then paint with Rustoleum hammered copper. Comes in a can. Just roll it on. The tint the epoxy with copper mica powder and apply. You’ll need to keep brushing it on until the material thickened up. 😊

[@ArtByCater]

I love this video. I love love love the leopard print. Can this be used on wood? -Dawn

[@RK3Designs]

[@tj48649]

I have UGLY yellow composite granite in my master bath. Is there anything that can be done besides getting rid of it and starting over?

[@RK3Designs]

Terri Juanette yep. You could do a foil, or any epoxy finish over it. Just make sure you prep with a good bonding primer. Most of the finishes I’ve done on my videos would more on existing countertops 😊

[@tj48649]

@@RK3Designs Question: Do I need to sand the granite to help with mechanical adhesion? If so, what would I use? BTW...you have made my day. Thank you!

[@RK3Designs]

Yes. Clean the surface well before you start to sand so you don't push any dirt into the surface as you sand. I would use an 80 grit sandpaper. You'll just love what you can do on top of old granite. I would love to see your project when you're done!!!
