Thank you this almost retired person can't afford $1,000's and I re roofed my house. pulled sanded painted my kitchen cabinets. pulled all the carpet out of my house and put down Pergo flooring painted all my interior and exterior during covid 19 while Teaching online. Husband hates doing that kinda stuff. I have this one kitchen and spare bathroom project gonna call my plumber to pull the kitchen sink for $100 he will pull the sink and put in a brand new one once I'm finished. I thought I would have to wait years to pay someone to do the counter tops thanks looks fantastic
Thank you for your informative video. It seems a bit intimidating, but the cost comparision makes it less so. We need a color change from the Corian countertop that has been in this house for an unkniwn number of years, but 20 plus! We will try this product and hope it turns out as well as your project. Thank you.
I 'm doing mine over the next 3 days. So far I have the 2nd stone coat on and will do the sanding tomorrow. I had dark grey laminate and I also needed 3 coats of the primer. Luckily I bought 2 kits just in case and I needed the 2nd can of primer. So far it looks totally amazing! Completely different. It does take quite a bit of time and work but it's better to spend a few hundred dollars instead of a few thousand. I would definitely recommend this product.
Thanks so much for posting this. My wife and I had the same quarantine dilemma and decided to order earlier today. Happy to see we’re not the only ones!
Great Job! Looks Fantastic! Product looks very easy to use and does not produce much of a mess and is water based and low odour and low VOC, can't go wrong! Good Choice!
Glad I watched. You did a great job showing the logical process. If I could offer a tip. On stirring the thick second can. Try a pair of Japanese chop sticks
I have the same color cabinets and I don’t want to spend a fortune repainting them white (even though it is the ‘in’ color now). I love the look of the color combination of the darker wood cabinets, tan color backsplash and the cream color countertop. It looks better than most of the color schemes with white cabinets. And the way things go the darker wood cabinets will probably be back in style in a year. I have a question though. If the countertop gets damaged can you merely redo the entire process for just the damaged area?
Your kitchen is shaping up really nice with those beautiful cupboards, the backsplash tile and now this new countertop makeover 👍 Can I ask, what was the square foot coverage on those products?
Jade Xu yes I used a dewalt vibrating sander for the original rough sanding before the primer as well as after the stone coating before the clear coat.
I did mine this weekend. An orbital electrical hand sander will cut your time in more than half the time. Any local hardware store sells them $35-$60 for a good one. Totally worth it!
Michael Green Countertops look wonderful the way you dispersed the color in what looks like a natural flow of heavy and light color vs. cream. Most people try for a more uniform look, but yours is more natural with much more interest. Great project!
Just curious if you could email me pictures of the finished countertops... I am trying to convince my wife to let me do it. The video it's hard to tell.

Even covid can have silver lining.

Joel Lyman good luck. I believe you will be happy with it. We love the look of ours.
You did a great job! Thank you for posting. 😊

Do they have to be Japanese chop sticks or can I use Chinese chop sticks cause that's all I have
Your counters look great! Thanks for posting!
Nice job " Hoss" looks really nice " Appricate the tip"..👍
Looks great! Planning to try it.
We did ours in this color 2 weeks ago. We love it.
How is it holding up?
What color is this?
Looks awesome! thank you for sharing this! I am going to use this stuff!
Great video - very helpful. Thank you!

Thanks! Your countertops look great!
How are they looking now since it’s been roughly a year later? Any wear and tair?
The question is, how does it hold up?
Your kitchen is shaping up really nice with those beautiful cupboards, the backsplash tile
and now this new countertop makeover 👍 Can I ask, what was the square foot coverage
on those products?
I believe each box covers 35sqft'
Were doing this today! Question: did you lightly sand the spread stone after the second coat or use the electric sander?
Daich has a new premium kit called Luxrock. Cost 30% more but worth it, stone semi gloss finish.
Looks great!!! How has the durability been?
Thank you, I just ordered mine, What colour did you go for and how long did it take with all the waiting for it to cure ?
When you sanded this did you sand it with the 80 grit first and then the 120 after?
Great job! Did you sand with machine or just with hands? What is the material of your original countertop?
Jade Xu yes I used a dewalt vibrating sander for the original rough sanding before the primer as well as after the stone coating before the clear coat.

Does anyone know the color of this countertop? And if anyone knows anything about the durability I’d appreciate the feedback. Thanks.
Did I miss what color kit you used?
Was this one spreadstone kit for all your countertop area
Is there anything we could use for a top coat that is water resistant?
What kind of countertop did you start with ... soapstone, laminate?
Laminate
Hi! What color was this. Natural white?
Would this work on a tabletop that has extensions in it?
Michael which color was this? I want the Oyster one...
How is the smell of the product?
How have these held up?
I’m confused about the original surface. Was it stone, laminate, or what?
He said it was laminate in one of his replies.
What is the condition 1 year later?
How many In total do you for each one products?
Do you use **
How are the counter tops doing a few months later?
Their doing very well. Very durable so far.
How many top coats did you apply?
Donna K 2 coats but I would recommend more if you can.
@@michaelgreen3419 Thanks
What color did you use?
Julie Jensen natural white was the name we used but it’s almost a Cream color.

Suzi Q-zy Thank you
How many kits did you use?
2 I believe
Just curious if you could email me pictures of the finished countertops... I am trying to convince my wife to let me do it. The video it's hard to tell.
ummm YES!!!! just buy it and do it like I do I dont tell hubby until I'm doing it
How us the smell?
I just did mine this weekend. The smell is very faint. Can barely smell it. And the little you can isn’t an unpleasant one either.
@@dixiechink7313 how has the durability been since the install?
