    It’s not glue it’s silicone caulk (which isn’t paintable)and you have to remove it completely with a razor blade first then they sell products to help remove the residue and or you can use a fine sandpaper. Then you can re-caulk with a paintable caulking. Cool idea by the way. Peace

    the respirator masks with say like a P100 filter doesn't keep you from breathing in fumes. the P100 and N95 filter masks are for particulate matter, not for fumes. the respirator you used doesn't protect you from fumes because fumes are not particulate. that stuff is probably better to spread on a paintbrush the spray can definitely went into your lungs. and that still has a lot of fumes. that shit is so nasty. i have used it because i have to sometimes.

    Love this video. I have a vanity like this and was wondering what I would be able to do instead of replacing it. How long did you have to wait before you could use it? Also, how long did the smell linger? What did you spray paint the faucet with? Love these types of diys.

    • @KarlaAlexandra
      @KarlaAlexandra  Před rokem

      The smell was there for a few days not that long. I sprayed the faucet with Rustoleum oil rubbed bronze, but the mistake I made was not using automotive primer first. Use automotive primer then spray with appliance epoxy. I used appliance epoxy in black. If you are wanting to spray another color just make sure you use the automotive primer first.

You just wanna rough up the surface......clean with a degreaser. Use a coat of compatible primer.......and lastly. Two coats.....spray paint doesn't go on very thick.....building up the surface.

      It’s held up well. Our three kids use this bathroom and they are not careful at all. There is one spot where it looks like one of them left a spray bottle can and it stained the counter top a bit. I would recommend this in a bathroom that does not have heavy traffic or at least not a kids/guest bathroom. I will definitely do this in my master bathroom because it is just me and my husband and we keep it clean, but with kids maybe not. This is not a permanent solution so I can deal with that stain.

      Mine sat for a week before anyone used the sink. I even waited to put the faucet as well. I am not sure what can be done differently, maybe a longer cure time. Also remember that this is a quick fix. Mine has held up so far, just a little stain from my step daughters face mask which came up with a magic eraser. We are in the process of removing the vanity but I think if this bathroom was not used by all three kids and guest the epoxy will last longer a lot longer.

      Mine is not grainy at all. Super smooth. Next time try applying from more than 6 inches away. I did very light coats as well.

      They sell a tile and tub kit for bath tubs. You can find it in Amazon or homedepot/lowes.
