How To Create An Amazing Epoxy Water Drop Finish | RK3 Designs

[@RK3Designs]

rk3designs.com || Where would you put this finish?

[@chrisnash2154]

Furniture next to a pool or hot tub. Furniture on a boat. Beach furniture.

[@ToddBizCoach]

On closet sliding doors(or folding) in a recreation room in home

[@ToddBizCoach]

In a high end restaurant in woman ‘s bathroom as an accent wall. Use decorative gold corners to cover up screws which hold it tight to wall.

[@RK3Designs]

That would be amazing!!

[@sll-tt6bj]

Really nice you have classes?

I'm just sitting here slowly shaking my head. I've worked with resin off n on for 10 years, not as a pro but for diy home projects and crafts. I'm literally just realizing the my successes have been purely accidental. I knew how important mixing and incorporating is yet I assumed I was doing it right. That false assumption is actually the answer I've been seeking the entire time, every single time a finish failed, every single time I got horrible edges and every single time I got divots and the resin didn't cure evenly. I blamed the resin instead of owning it. I just assumed resin sucked or I sucked at it. I was half right. Rhonda, God bless your heart, I owe you a debt of gratitude for your delivery AND substance! Your mixing and application tips have inspired me to fall in love with epoxy finishes all over again. Between you, stone coat and atd, I'm all in once again🥰

[@darlaballenger2357]

WOW! Now that is cool. I think maybe a bathroom floor. The kids get water on it anyway so might as well make the water look good.

[@RK3Designs]

Lol. Exactly!! Thanks for watching!!!😊😊

[@BassResinator]

This finish would be cool on a bathroom counter top.

[@jasonmartin7137]

The shot at 17:09 makes me think I'm looking at a parking lot thru a tinted window on a rainy day. Very impressive!

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!! 😊😊

[@johnmonasterial865]

beautiful creation. I hope I can learn that and start a bussiness of my own. Watching from Philippines.

[@RK3Designs]

You can do it!

[@johnmonasterial865]

I will use it for wall decor.. like a painting and on bar counters and tables..

[@anngreen7071]

Lordy me girl, do you ever run out of ideas? I love this, I can think of a million ways to use this method. Gorgeous.

[@RK3Designs]

Lol. Thank you! 😊😊

[@AndreGuilbault-zl7wu]

Oh my I've seen the water drop done on custom car paint job. I'm so happy I saw it here. Put it back in my thoughts now I can't wait to do it . On the car they didn't show how to do it in detail. Just showed water drops that were painted. Then the final finish. So now I know. Thank you so much.

[@colleenjenne5251]

Love the bubble finish

[@brendagould13]

Rhonda, you are absolutely amazing!

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!!!!

[@daimyo2k]

Pretty cool... oddly enough, I learned how to do this technique (minus the epoxy) with the airbrush, 30 years ago, in my graphic design course in vocational school... loooong before photoshop kiddos

[@RK3Designs]

How cool. I’ll bet it really looks awesome when done with an airbrush!! 😊

[@CynthiaPrice79]

PhotoShop’s been around an awfully long time… are you grandpa old?

[@daimyo2k]

@@CynthiaPrice79 Lol =D not quite, but almost. We actually used a precursor to Photoshop called "Pixel-paint". Back then it was literally like magic. I remember using the gradient tool for the first time and was like "HOLY SH!T!!!"

[@KM-fckutube]

Yeah man, they’ve been doing this on lowriders for about 35-40 years.

[@michelelinkhorn4457]

Fabulous as always, a splashback in the kitchen

[@RK3Designs]

A backsplash would look so cool! Thanks for watching

This is the next finish I'm trying - thank you!

Trying to catch up with my Guru"s videos. This is gorgeous!

[@richardmontfort4731]

Awesome demo, I'm truly inspired, thank you so much for sharing. Where do you get the clear material to apply the vinyl decal? Great job. Hello from London, Ontario Canada.

[@brianlykins6663]

This was amazing. First time I've seen water droplets. I am totally surprised at how nice it turned out. Two thumbs 👍 👍 up young lady. The problem with learning all these techniques, is how many cornhole sets I would have to make. Then having to decide which ones to get rid of. I'm certain your class would be an absolute ball to attend. Thank you.

[@sebnemk2596]

Omg i love this water bubbles effect and thank you also for foamy glass cleaner tip..❤❤

Awesome! And when her former pupil said she started her own business, this is really inspiring. I’m looking to start a new career, (I’m done with construction, I just don’t wanna do it anymore) this sounds like an awesome opportunity.

[@RK3Designs]

Hey there it’s a fabulous opportunity!!!

[@brendagould13]

Love it! Thank you

[@NickOeffinger]

Exactly the look I need for my project. Thank you

[@davomontgomeryda3rd]

Awesome!! Tip I found out for the dried epoxy on your red silicone drill paint/ epoxy mixer... after the dried epoxy builds up a few layers on the mixer, use a hammer to give a light wacks to each of the silicone mixer blades, the hits from the hammer will crack & separate the epoxy from the mixer & the dried epoxy can be peeled right off the mixer.

[@RK3Designs]

Perfect!!! Thank you!!! 😊

[@marksavino2580]

Your very talented. I’m an architectural painting contractor and I really appreciate other craftsman in different fields

[@laurienoe1233]

OMG Rhonda! This finish is money! I have been thinking about ways to do a water faux finish that's not necessarily a beachy ocean look and this one fits the bill. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity once again! I am so doing this finish ASAP! The decal application with Keith McGinnis was awesome, too. Took the guesswork out of that! Take care and keep up the great work!!

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!!! It’s such a fun technique that you don’t see a lot!! So many ways to customize it also 😊

[@ToddBizCoach]

@@RK3Designs Did you say customize! A water,beach effect serving tray that gets left on table, lazy Susan. Things to be used on patios, near pools, outdoor cement top bars. Figure out a marketing name for this effect?

[@beautyfilledminds7141]

Awesome video. If anyone is confused about what tool she was referring to as a trial she is talking about a trowel. A trial is held in a court. A trowel (/ˈtrou(ə)l/ sounds like towel with an r) is a tool. They come in flat, u shape and v shape. The flat edge trowel is good for epoxy. 😁

[@RK3Designs]

I’m just laughing that so many people are letting the way I say trowel taking up space in their head and time out of their day!! 🤣😂

[@TheOiftmtgnr3]

I just bought a new home with an inground salt water pool, 5+ acres and a steel 40x60 pole barn. In the barn is 2.5 bathrooms, a kitchenette, loft and office. I will be "taking possession/ moving in" in a month. The kitchenette has "boring/ bland" counter tops. I already see me doing this design scheme on the counters, the riding lawnmower and possibly the table by the pool.... if they come out as good as this video... my wife will be upset to see the floors in the house always looking wet with water drops lol. Great video, can't wait to start and try different colors on different projects.

[@RK3Designs]

You are gonna have fun with this finish I can tell!!! ❤️❤️

I would love to check out your pro course! I've been using epoxy for a few years but mainly in casting and art creations but I'd love to bridge the gap into this type of work! My husband and I own a classic auto Restoration shop called Charlie Horse Customs. We do a lot of custom car builds and I can Invision some gorgeous dash's and maybe even a paint finish that looks similar to the river tables or even a beautiful all over finish for the entire car!!! Ohhhh my imagination is running wild! Eeeek! I think all of the car show groups of people need something new and exciting and I don't know of anyone else doing it! 😉

[@one1wizard]

I love the bubble look. That is more prettier than the dirty poor. Question why can't you use the pink foam insulation for this

[@RK3Designs]

I’m confused. Pink Insulation Foam for the drip affect or for cornhole boards? It’s not sturdy enough for high impact cornhole boards plus it would be hard to attach the foam to the corn hole frame.

[@ericabsten2555]

I love the content you put out keep up the great work! Maybe I missed it but what is the light spray paint color you use? The one after navy and brilliant blue? Look forward to watching more from you thanks!
