New place we are looking at buying, has tile counters in kitchen

Rather than doing new counters for now, thought about cleaning tiles good, and filling to the raised wood edge surrounding the counter tops with epoxy

Do they make a big can of the chit, like say 4 litres like paint


I would think it's plenty hard, and would be flat and fill in all the tiles bactiera lines lol

The stuff I have used so far you can get in 3 liter jugs. It's a 2 part mixture but it does show scratches. There must be a product that you can put over top that will not mark as easy. A good laquer coating maybe. I have not looked into this yet.

You can buy bar counter top stuff. It’s made for wood bar tops. For wood it take lots of coats, one or two on epoxy would be enough

Yes it's the same stuff you use for concrete floor coatings, buy it from conspec in Edmonton by the 5gallon pail.

Stone coat countertop YouTube has a ton of countertop videos. Crazy what they can do with some epoxy and spray paint. Marble, quartz, granite. They all look like the real thing

Some shells we picked up last time we were in Mexico. Some blue epoxy with clear top.
