Please please please follow the instructions on how to properly mix the epoxy together. I don’t even want to type instructions because I don’t want to accidentally tell you wrong, just look at the instructions for this. Many epoxy kits are different, so if you have a different one do what that one says.
After done mixing, immediately pour the mixture in three streams on the counter tops (closer to the backsplash, the middle and the edge). Use the entire mixture. Each mixture covers a 6 foot square inch countertop.
Use your 2 inch brush and start with the backsplash, transfer some of your epoxy mix and paint it on to your backsplash. Also, use the brush to cover the edges (close to sink, countertop edge, etc.).
Lightly use the roller for the rest of the countertops. Remember the epoxy is self-leveling so you don’t need to work it too much. Make sure to lightly roll the front edges of your counters.
After you are done with that section, you can move on to another can of epoxy and do another section.
If your last sections is less that 3 feet, only use the amount of epoxy you will need.
Once you are done, use a bright light to find any hairs, lint, air bubbles or dry spots. You can add a little epoxy with a 2 inch brush if you notice a dry spot. For air bubbles, lint and hairs use the tweezers to get them out. You can just pop the air bubbles. This is all done before it dries.
Remove the painters tape within one to two hours after you lay the epoxy. If you peel it off too early it will make marks, but if you peel it off too late it will be stuck!
Wait 8 hours to remove the tarp over the floors and cabinets.
