Thanks for the video and all of the detailed answers. This helps reduce the pucker factor out of my first project with epoxy. I'm glueing up two mirror slabs of cottonwood and your help has given me a more confidence in the process. Thanks a bunch!!

Ive played with ER in the past and had mixed results, now i know why, Ive overlooked seal coating before the main all the difference. Especially in a large job like a table top. Thanks guys. Quality information here. great production.

Looks awesome. Thanks for the tips. Do you do any sanding or buffing after the flood coat? Or are you done once the flood coat cures? Also, how much time are you waiting between the seal coats and sanding?

Oh my that is a beautiful slab, thank you for sharing you secret. I will try that epoxy on my first slab table I build! Thanks guys for doing what y’all do

[rhinomite]

Thanks for sharing getting ready to try it on a piece of Black Walnut

[g.fortin]

OMG that is incredible. I need to mix some of this into my woodworking now !! Thank you for explaining the process so well. Nice work bro !!

[rbbillings]

I watched your video (thank you) & several others. I’ve yet to learn what happens/how does one address the bottom side where it drips down. How is the bottom side tackled? Thank you.

[taytot]

How do you clean the brushes you used? Or do you have ti buy new ones for every project?

[adamalday]

do you have any videos showing your sanding process to get to this stage? I have some wood slabs that I just picked up.

What you're doing really looks great - I just attempted to finish a butcher block top I made. Using the same Epoxy by MAS I mixed at a 1 to 1 ratio and it was twice as thick as what I see in your video. So when using my heat gun and popping the bubbles, in some places it left dimples and I also noticed some waves did you do anything to thin out your mix? Was the Epoxy I was using maybe too old? I bought it new and was still sealed. I used their sealer first, now I have applied two flood coats. Of course I did sand in between coats. Any suggestions?

[bcbaber]

Great job. Question: If you find a flaw (a bug or a small sticky spot) after you finish and the rest has hardened, do you have to repour the entire table or can you just touch up the small area?

[mikaylasmith]

Nice work KnottHead! What did you do to the bottom side of the slab? Thanks for sharing your Knowledge!

[byronfriedhoff]

Have you used Rubio over Mas table top and if so happy with results?

[johnrogers]

Does it depend on wood type? Specifically white oak

[howardmiller]

I have a question u have a small dip about the size of a quarter is there a way to Address that without doing a re pour?

[carmendoyle]

Can u use on even a canvas paint I have try one nit dashing first name just nit for me glass but hopping mabe u can use this one I bought some can’t wait !!!!

[mikegranberg]

Have you ever covered over a painted surface with this product? I have a painted bar top that i would like to go over but am unsure if this would cause the base coat to 'Lift" or not?

[j.o]

Nice ! I wanna try it myself but I want to add color pigment ? Does this epoxy work with pigment?

[automaticprojects]

Wow. This looks great and super helpful since I just opened my first epoxy (MAS Table Top) and applied my first seal coat. I used way way too much epoxy for the seal coat so most of it got squeegeed off and even more just solidified in the mixing cup. The instructions say to sand after a seal coat with 80-120 grit, but your 220 technique makes sense. Also hadn’t occurred to me to do a second seal coat. Thanks for the great video. Subscribed.

Do you not need to use a torch on the seal coats?
