THE SUBSTRATE
Prepping the surface of the countertops is easy. Most surfaces just need to be sanded (80-100 Grit) then wiped clean. Granite and Marble will need the sealer removed. Tile will need the grout lines filled with Bondo and sanded smooth before applying our Countertop Kits.

EPOXY PRIMER COAT
Priming the Countertops is simple and fast. Mix your pre-measured primer then dip and roll the pigmented primer across the surface until the countertop surface is completely covered. Wait 1 hr. (or until tacky and not coming off to the touch) and start applying the Base Coat.
METALLIC EPOXY COAT
There are so many different applications for our metallic epoxy coat. In this video, we show you the dirty pour technique. When you place your order you'll receive step by step tutorial videos that will show you how to apply this part depending on the look you're going for!
HIGH WEAR TOP COAT
We offer 2 different Performance Engineered Top Coats. Glaze Coat is our High Build Top Coat that lays out like glass and adds depth to the Countertop. The Urethane Top Coat comes with the option to have a High Gloss or Matte finish. It needs to be rolled out super thin and leaves a minor texture on the countertop. You apply it within 24 hrs. of installing your Countertop Kit

Thank you so much!
I like this. Will order soon
Love these videos.
More to come! Thanks for watching! 😀
Beautiful
Waw, c'est magnifique. Les couleurs sont très belles. ❤. Je vais essayer de me faire une petite table pour commencer avec les mêmes couleurs
Love your products, how long do you wait to get the foam window seal out from the counter? and if we are using painter's tape how log do we need to wait to take it off? Thank you
Great video thxs!👍
Thank you!
Gold for sure
Nice one
Thanks for watching! 💯
It works better on counter tops than floors. I did a dirty pour floor with Leggari epoxy and tried using a brief fine mist spray with denatured alcohol but I could only spray it when I could still walk on it with spikes. After spraying it then more bubbles appeared later but I had no access at that point to spray again and there were a lot of bubbles in some areas. Also, despite trying hard to spray as frugally as possible the denatured alcohol substantially altered the appearance of the color pattern. After sanding the bubbles off flush I used crystal clear gorilla glue in a plastic squeeze Bottle with an 18-gauge needle type applicator to fill the bubble holes (then re-sand the top) before applying a top coat.
Copper or metallic brown. Love these products. Wish we had seen this before our spendy granite.
These are leggari epoxy pigments that are different from the metallics, check them out at leggari.com!
Bought the large kit and colors already from you huys with the intention of starting with a dark grey or black base then adding an overlay of coffee, and sandalwood then grey to mellow things out Hoping to use the grey to give a smokey look over the rest, any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated
Sam Taylor/// did you ever get some help? If so, how did it turn out???
Lovely
Thank you!
Been watching alot of your videos. Can you use other kinds of paints like house paints instead of spray can paints? Thanks. Ill be ordering soon.
We don't recommend using latex paint. Have we done it yes but it took way longer to get hard then it should!
And also with just this one coat is the countertop durable like scratch resistant heat resistance without needing a flood coat? Or would you still recommend a flood coat
You get the best protection by using our leggari urethane top coats on the epoxy
Carrrrr Mel., so 2.
Gorgeous. I'm definitely going with this. I need to watch you a little more to get the process down, but I'm going with your products. I do have a question: when you were putting the spray canned colors in the medium pots, were you adding the epoxy colors you mixed also? I'm a diy beginner? I'm really trying to get this down so it will look like yours.
Thank you for watching! For this project, we mixed up the epoxy, making different colored batches. We then added the liquid spray paint for extra depth and added it as we saw fit. Know that with every product purchased from Leggari, in-depth tutorials are included showing how to install our products. Although it may be an intimidating process, our goal is to simplify the process so anyone can do it. Best of luck to you!! Feel free to contact our customer service with any questions. 👇

@Leggari Products // thank you for such detail. I'll be ordering this week. Thank you so much
what was the support surface? Plywood, cement board, ???.
Add copper and dark blue. Do you have clear kits for table tops? Turned out beautiful.
I love your videos can you tell me what kind of primer do you use
Leggari WB Primer, check it out at leggari.com!
Very nice blend of colors and this is not just an installation, it is an art work as well.
How is the scratch resistanCe of your urethane top coat compared to the quartz (simulated stone).
I plan to do this for my kitchen but I worry more about the durability and scratch resistance than the aestic part.
Thank you.
ua-cam.com/video/npzH_hKmUG4/v-deo.html Check out this durability test!
Is that a 2 to one ratio. Can you use it on tumblers. What’s the odor???
How long do u spray the d alcohol after?
When priming the counter tops will it cause a texture problem if the existing counter tops have some texture? The counter tops I’m looking to epoxy aren’t completely smooth they aren’t defects or gouges just the natural texture.
Email customerservice@leggari.com and they can walk you through the prep work you will need to do!
What should be the composition of Denatured Alchohol. I am using 99% isoproply Alchol. Please suggest.
Just any denatured alcohol will work to pop bubbles and spot on with the 99% isopropyl for the dispersing effect
Can you do a video on removing the tape from the wall? Do you have to run a blade to score it?
I do resin art and I use a heat gun to help peel off tape, it works really well, I don’t know if yours might be too thick but it can’t hurt to try if you only heat the bits your trying to pull off, hope this helps x
If you tape it at the right hight about 1/8 inch high it will pull really easy the next day, you might have to cut it a little bit if the tape gets stuck in the epoxy or sits more than a day or two!
Good afternoon, it is 2:16 pm here in Jamaica. I bought some products here in Jamaica to do my counter top, but I am so afraid of work men here I don't get a good job from them.

Is all denatured alcohol the same? I see several different kinds in the stores with fuel, glass cleaner, etc behind the words denatured alcohol. Which one is the right one?
Just any denatured alcohol will do the trick!
Oh and the color, I would add gold
At the back of my counters there is a lip about 3inches going up the wall. Does it need to be removed to do epoxy top? How? Thank you.
We recommend removing it if possible!
Whats the best substrate? How thick?
Can you torch than denatured alcohol just to make sure no bubbles. As a rule of thumb for any resin?
Most other resin companies recommend torching their projects to remove air bubbles. We do not because our resin is engineered to push bubbles to the surface and torching can become hazardous. The first thing we spray is 91% or higher isopropyl alcohol; this creates cells in the design and disperses the epoxy. Once that evaporates, we spray denatured alcohol to pop remaining micro bubbles. This allows us to avoid torching the epoxy. As a rule of thumb, which resin you are installing determines your process. For countertop kit options, check this out! 👉leggari.com/order-countertops/
Best of luck!
Sir can ask if what kind of liquid are you going to spray right after finish pour mixing paint from the top of the table is it water or what kindly pls sir if what thanks more power&godbless
Isopropyl alcohol is used for the dispersing effect, denatured alcohol is used to pop bubbles!
@@LeggariProducts thank you very much sir,for a great response,I wanna be same like your skills someday so that's why I'm alwys on your channel just to Watch more & learn more to how I succed for that process, again sir thank you more power & godbless
I've noticed you hardly use Red guard on top and bottom of the countertop before you begin. Any reason why?
Our WB primer is not permeable, and does the same thing!
Can this be done on a table with 5.5 inches sidewall? Thanks!
Yes! You will want to take into consideration applying extra epoxy to the top and pulling the tape/weather stripping while the epoxy is more fluid so it fully flows over the edge. Contact our customer service for assistance!

Last part ..you spray with water?
You cannot buy denatured alcohol in California. Are there alternatives?
hi I have question, In India we dont find top coat for heat or cut resistance what should we do please suggest.
Leggari WB urethane top coat. Get it at leggari.com today!
Rather than torch use heat hair drier gun at low Temps not just 4 bubbles but blending. Your technique
is nice and easy, best 4 beginners!
We agree! We highly recommend using Isopropyl and denatured alcohol for a glass smooth finish🔥
The primer is regular paint or thin black epoxy?
It is our Leggari WB primer get it at leggari.cpom today!
How is the scratch resistance on the final result?
With our urethane topcoat the epoxy system is very scratch resistant!
Do you have to take counters outside cause of smell...or can you use it inside...
Love
Thanks for watching!! 😃
What’s the name of brand of weather stripping you guys use
MD brand name, we get it from home depot!
Gold
I wish you had made this video before I covered my countertops a few weeks ago. The bubbles and bumps are such an eyesore on an otherwise awesome $400 countertop kit
Yes, it is always good to watch all the tutorial videos before you start to get familiar with all he steps!
@@LeggariProducts Please tell me that was a joke! Over 100 tutorial videos going back 7 years? Yeah, I watched many of them and it DID NOT HELP! Just a suggestion.. How about creating a single FULL instructional video? Send that one video to buyers. When you make updates, remove the old video and upload a new full instructional. Cover things like when to remove backsplash tape, when to spray, how to fix accidental bumps in the dry process, when a roller should or should not be used, specifically what the roller label should say, when and why to make a edge tape wall. Don't skip ANY step in the edit like EVERY single video does.
@ThreeDigitIQ // I have to agree. We need a tutorial from start to finish even if you have to make a part 1, part 2, etc., something missed can mess it all up like you said.
I would add teal or copper I think 🤔
Would make an awesome contrast!! 👏😍
Copper or gold 👍
Which is must durability tiles or epoxy?

It was glass smooth but then applying included gloss top coat added a texture to it. It’s not glass smooth anymore. Is that how gloss topcoat is or did I not do it right? Mine has white so couldn’t do a epoxy flood top coat according to support.
The gloss does have a slight texture to it, the matte does not!
Will 91% Isopropyl Alcohol work? Hard to find denatured alcohol.
Lowe's has it
A touch of blue
Yes, that would be awesome!
metallic Dark teal or green in minimal quantities.
Gold metallic

Great choice!
Denatured alcohol is it ehanol

You just want to make sure there is no hard or sharp edges, round edges are ideal!
Hello. Where can I purchase your products in South Africa?

Blue Green
light blue and silver
Misting seperated the pigment out of the epoxy and left clear circles and ruined the project. What did i do wrong?
Must have sprayed too much isopropyl alcohol!
Please tell me, Is this same as tiles? Is it heat resistant?
email customerservice@leggari.com they will give you all specifications!
@@LeggariProducts thank you very much.
gold
Yes!
I'm in the UK and we pronounce it carra-mel
Even thought it's spelled caramel,to hear Americans say it it sounds like you're saying Corra-mel. Doesn't matter either way,I love the American accent more than my own🤣great video.
Awesome thanks!
I would use ash grey
Great choice!
Top 💯!🇧🇷👍👏👏👏
Thank you!!
I tried the tape dam method using those strips and it was a disaster for me. Left a bunch of adhesive residue behind.
We only recommend using the same brand weatherstripping we use in our videos. We get our weather stripping from home depot and it is MD brand
@@LeggariProducts ok I got mine from Home Depot too. I guess a different brand. Thanks for the reply.
Silver, if there has to be a 3rd spray paint. I honestly would have just added more black to highlight all the colors.
Yes, the options are endless!
Hello can I get this products in Dubai
Yes, leggari.com we ship internationally!
how much heat can this product tolerate?
Check out our durability test video here!🔥 ua-cam.com/video/npzH_hKmUG4/v-deo.html
how heat resistant is it? I want to resurface my tired brown granite countertop to something like white with black line marbling. is it ok to place hot pans on it? or is this not recommended.
Can you do it yes, but we always recommend hot pads!
Do you guys still use the iso?
Yes! The first thing we spray is 91% or higher isopropyl alcohol; this creates cells in the design and disperses the epoxy. Once that evaporates, we spray denatured alcohol to pop micro bubbles. This allows us to avoid torching the epoxy.
Metallic gold

Will it stay gloss
We always recommend a top coat, our gloss has a slight orange peel texture!
Blue
Electric blue
Oh wow that would be bright!
I will add thin white veins for the pop
Это охренеть как круто!
Спасибо
Metallic burnt orange spray paint
Rose gold or copper
YES!! 👏
I would add a little Bronze metallic
Yes good choice!
I would love to see a river table made with a dirty pour stone look instead of a typical solid color.
Great idea!
Me as well please
metalic silver
🔥🔥
Red all day
Yes that would be cool!
you ask, so I would add a little red swirl into the mix
That'd be neat, thanks for the input!
I'd add copper or titanium
Teal
Yes, teal would look good!
I would add Copper or Gold. Or maybe anything Metallic
Good choice!
Glitter
That could be cool, good idea!
#2 for caramel.
And i would have put a brick red in there
🔥🔥 That would have been a cool addition!
I think I would like some discrete dark green or purple fracture veins in there. Blurred, not well defined
Oh yeah that would look awesome! 😍
A blue
Yes!
So you mist it before taking off the tape or stripping?
Yes, the first thing we spray is 91% or higher isopropyl alcohol; this creates cells in the design and disperses the epoxy. Once that evaporates, we spray denatured alcohol to pop micro bubbles. Once the surface levels out and begins to set, that is when we remove tape/weather stripping and help the epoxy cover edges👍💯

@@LeggariProducts thanks. And at what point do you pull the tape along the walls?
