Veining Concrete Countertop with White and Blue Pigments

One technique for creating multi colored concrete, and veining with powdered/integral concrete pigment colors.

[@АнуарКайырхан]

This is the first time I've seen such a technique! Super! Perfect!

[@ritawilliams8473]

I knew it could be done. 🙏🏾

[@M4DHUSKY]

Tnx for thumbnail and last two seconds of video.

[@LightGesture]

Obviously yours came out a little more cartoony looking, than that other one which looked more natural. Cool forms, though

[@desigerz7364]

Think out of the box video 👍🏻👍🏻 can I use mica powder to color concrete?

[@kraptastic333]

Came for the decorative concrete and stayed for the fat synth bass line, sincere thanks for both

[@patricksongodio2324]

I would like to learn you teach

Why does the "other" example of blue veining look so good and this one looks so mid? (and why have you not answered one single question on this page?)

[@ExpressionsLTD]

The end of the video example is a different technique, that was done using pigment (blue) mixed with cement slurry (dry) and then placed in the form in the pattern shown and concrete then placed over the top of it, filling the form. That process is much messier (as can be seen from the blue 'smudges' around the area) and won't create hard lines (which is what this main video was to show- the placement of different colored concrete mixes and the lines made between joining of them!)

PLEASE PLEASE tell me where you get those blue edge forms I can't find them on the website. NOT THE CEMENT EDGE MOLD BUT THE FORM THAT IS SCREWED INTO THE TABLE HOLDING THE CEMENT IN.

[@ExpressionsLTD]

We recently sold the last box, and have not yet made more... Most likely we will just stick with the new forms we now carry to replace the triangle style. You can see them here: www.expressions-ltd.com/products/concrete-counter-top-plastic-precast-l-shaped-forms

Cool shit man!

[@scottmills4164]

That looks terrible...

[@mjremy2605]

Never add music to DIY demos. It ruins it for viewer. Natural sounds are wonderful and soothing. Silence is golden. I came to see the countertop with the sink and got bamboozled into watching a completely different build. Misrepresentation. Don't bait and switch.

[@RJ-se9op]

i keep watching to see if there is something i am missing or just not getting. this is horrifically bad.

[@farmingmexico6968]

what liquid do you use for polish

[@Dylan-SavedByGrace]

What was the vibrator used in this video!? Thanks!

[@carolinecaroline2264]

The music you picked is very hard on the ears.

[@KINNARAMONEY]

Why bother putting the blue through the piece if just gonna paint it on at the end anyway?

[@digitalconsciousness]

He's slopping it on at the end because he knows he doesn't have to be precise. The main pigment is already in place, so the pigment he paints on near the end is just to fill voids. If you were to instead do the careful painting of the shape of the vein you want to achieve at the end, you would have to be more precise and the pigment would only go skin deep or fill in voids. It would not look uniform. That is why you do the main part of the pigment as the base of the concrete structure.

[@KINNARAMONEY]

@@digitalconsciousness that makes sense, thanks mate

[@agentred8732]

Why go through all the trouble of making that video, only to skip showing off the results of your hard work?!

[@nostaljosh]

lol right. ends up showing a completely different example

[@Alphasig336]

Because the results of that one looking like he spilled pain and can pour concrete. That’s what it looks like not what it is. It just looks like a big mistake.
