- Hey y'all welcome back to my channel!
I found myself in the middle of my own bathroom renovation and was struggling to find youtube videos on how to complete the different small jobs. So I figured I would stumble through it with my minimal knowledge of construction and show y'all how I got the job done on a budget.
Materials Used:
Rough, Medium, and Fine grit sandpaper. It will say on the packaging what material the sandpaper can be used on and what grade the grit is.
Painters Tape and Painters Paper to block off the areas I didn't want to get painted
KRYLON APPLIANCE EPOXY (WHITE). When you use this MAKE SURE YOU WORK IN THIN EVEN COATS. And trust the process, it will look patchy at first but shake well and do 4-5 thin layers and it will be beautiful!
White silicone caulk for the seams.
Tip for next time you caulk - use the back of a plastic spoon instead of your finger 100% less mess with more uniform results.
Ugh this is such a great idea!!! My fingers were killing me after this. I will definitely remember that for next time.
I used topcoat marine paint, worked beautifully, so easy to use and smell not too bad
You did a good job
How many cans did you go through? Mine is about the same size
I want to say 3 or 4
Is this application lasting? And how do you daily clean the surface after the paint has been applied?
It is. We are a year out and there are no chips. It does have a stain on it that I need to try and shift so I’ll let you know what works. The only part that needs touch up is the metal ring around the sink
This is really helpful. Can you give us the information of all the products you used in the video?
Sure, I’ll add them to the description box and let you know when it’s posted.

@Mi Minh, the materials are in the description box!
People, when using chemicals like this...USE A REAL MASK. Either an N95 or better, a ventilator. This stuff is very toxic, a cloth mask doesn't do anything.
Yes! I would agree this was not sufficient, but it was better than nothing and the N95s were in short supply at the time I filmed this.
looks good
