Love the blue
Is perfect, very talented
Thank you!!!
Love this one...very natural.
Thank you! 😊
@@RK3Designs Thank you so much for doing these videos I am really enjoying learning a little here and there I haven't done one yet but I'm gearing up and getting ready to do 1 for a friend I'm a handyman and I do many things this is not something I've tried yet but I'm looking forward to completely.
It was perfect.
Thank you!! 😊😊
Thank you for putting in some aerial views! I love watching your videos but always wish I could have a top view while you’re creating your masterpieces! As always, gorgeous 🥰
Thank you for your feed back and THANK YOU for watching 😊😊
Luv it
Thank you!! 😊
I have been scouring the internet for epoxy countertop tutorials and this is so perfect! I am going to do a 60" double sink vanity using this style, but I am going to add metallic gold instead of turquoise (even though turquoise is my favorite color) just so I can make sense of all the brass in my 1999 home that I can't replace just yet. I can't wait to play around with this!
Gonna be FABULOUS!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love it. I would use a cornflower blue with it, as that it my favourite colour. Thank you 🙏🏼 beautiful.
That would have been gorgeous!
Hi Rhonda! I LOVE the colors in this… was wondering if you could do these colors in a dirty pour?
Love love love this one Rhonda! Stunnnnning!
Love your videos! They are so informative and easy to follow. I do have a questions though. How do you cover large pieces like this during the curing process? I'm wanting to do an island for my kitchen and not sure how to cover it so no unwanted flying debris gets on it. Thanks in advance and thank you for all you do to help us make beautiful pieces!
I love how this one turned out! Very natural and I love the pops of turquoise here and there! Simply gorgeous! Another masterpiece, Rhonda! I know your client will be thrilled!! Big shout out to Kenny - what an awesome team y'all make. Stay safe and well, y'all!
😘😘
I love love love these colors, they are my favorites. Every video I watch of yours, each is more beautiful than the last one. You are beyond talented, you are a gifted artist that makes the world more beautiful with your talent. Thank you so much for sharing.
This is so sweet!! Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying them ❤️❤️. Thank you for watching!
Can you tint with something else to start? Thanks. It’s beeeeautiful☺️
Love your videos and creativity! I noticed you don't often tape off your projects. Is this because you flood coat afterwards or is there another reason?
I normally don’t tape if I’m using 3 oz./sq ft of epoxy. Most of the techniques I do, I only use that amount. If I use more epoxy / sq ft, I will then tape my edges.
Beautiful. I love this technique of pouring turquoise...Looks very beautiful...
But just to ask you about..How do you keep the side surface smooth without drops of epoxy ? Do you use sand paper for smoothning ???
Thanks.
After about 5 hours or so you can take a gloved hand and spritz alcohol in it. Then rub the edges smooth. 😊
I think it will look great in a kitchen in a cute apartment on a ranchita!!! Super excited! Thank you Rhonda & Kenny with RK3 designs! 😍🥰👍🏼👏🏼🙌🏼
That would look great. The fact that it’s very subtle, makes it very versatile. 😊
I love this! We want to redo our master bath after we get moved in. And I think I just found my shower walls and countertop...this is amazing!!!
Super fun and easy finish. You’ll love it in your shower.
Love it!! We are wanting to do the top of our entertainment center but not the sides can you give me some advice on how to do this?
I would tape the edges with Tyvek tape So the product won’t run over the edge. Once the epoxy is dry you can pull the tape and sand the edges smooth. You want to do the same thing with your clear flood coat as well.
Love that finish
Another awesome result. No surprise there. 👍. Always enjoy watching your videos. Thanks Rhonda. Stay safe
Thank you!!! You stay safe as well 😊
That is a pretty pop of color added in!! 💙💙
My favorite ❤️
@@RK3Designs it is my daughter's favorite color!! My favorite color is rainbow glitter!! 🌈🌈🌈😉😂🤣
It is really beautiful! The torch made the blue look integrated. Très beau 😍!
Thank you!!! 😊
That’s beautiful!! It’s exactly what I want on my countertops. Without the turquoise. Maybe a metallic color? I’d like to order all the epoxy and the spray paint you used. Can u tell me all the grays and others that you used - turquoise? Keep on keepin on!!!

I wouldn't go anywhere with it it's perfect 🤗🤗🤗 you ROCK
Yeah! I’m glad you liked it!! 😊😊
A couple of thin lines of metallic siler
Luv the turquoise 👍🏼. Stay Safe be Well
Thank you!!! You as well ❤️
WOW!, this is exactly what I want for my kitchen island !!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! You are genius !!
It would make a gorgeous kitchen countertop!!! Let me know if you do it. Would love to see 😊
I would have added more of the blues on the backsplash than what you put on it. It is such a pretty color that if I were the customer, I would like to have more blue to look at while working on my counter and washing dishes.
I like how your shirt blends with this finish!
That a great view point!! I will make sure to pay attention to that next time when I’m doing the backsplashes. Thank you so much for your feedback!!!! 😊
This is a perfect pattern for my new kitchen. Love the Turquoise! I might change with accents of color to tie in with the cabinets. Haven’t made final decision yet. Thinking two tone.... dark blue, gray or ? on bottom and white on tops. I love color!
I think the two tone would be really pretty!!! ❤️
Looks awesome!
Very realistic...👊
Thank you!!! How did your project turn out?
Need to go to the pet store and retool, thanks for sharing the pro tip!
Lol. You bet!
Love it
Thank you!! 😊
Love it, very good!
Thank you Kathy!!! I appreciate you watching!
Your hair color rocks, dear.
Very elegant Rhonda ! a wonderfully concise tutorial :)
Thank you!!! Thanks for watching and your feedback! 😊😊
After watching a whole bunch of these videos, I think I'll start with this method when I do my dining room table in macaubas quartzite. I wonder if I should make the veins with a stick or with drizzle.
I would make sample boards of each technique and see which one you like the best.😊😊
Rhonda, what did the customer think of this?
Would she like to have had more turquoise in it?
Can you come back later and add more turquoise before you install it? Or, even after you have installed it, if the customer wants more color?
I am also asking for myself, for my future project(s). I'm going to do pearl white on white with diamond dust, and ... mica (?) for my master bath and guest bathroom. I am thinking of putting turquoise for my rental unit bathrooms vanity tops. I'm also doing the kitchen counter tops.
She loved it. She just wanted a VERY tiny amount of accent color, so she was happy with the piece. Once the epoxy is set up you really can’t add more color unless you pour another layer. It would give it more of a 3D look.
@@RK3Designs Hmmmmm! 3-D!!! That would be interesting! Remember how 3-D marbles are! That would be really cool! My brain is working, now!
I'm really glad she liked it!!!
Funny how our brain never stops thinking of things to epoxy 😂😂
It looks great❗ I would have added just a small hint of either a very light pink or beige at the ends of your turquoise highlights. 👀🔎👍🏻😁
That would look cool ❤️.
It might be interesting to have a countdown clock in the screen
That’s a good idea. Let me run it my the video boss 😂😂
Have you done a video on how to cut the hole out after epoxy is completed?
Yes sir. That is coming!!
do you sand the final piece and buff it or does the resin loose that orange peel effect it has after the pour? I live in Italy and obviously we don't have the same products over here, I would really like to try this out , what recommendations can you give me on the type of resin and the spray cans I should be using?
I love your work. I did a counter and I hated how it looks. The idea was marble but it looks fake. Can you help me fix it? Or it might be in fixable
You can scuff the surface, repaint with a base color and repour.
Is it better to have the hole cut before the epoxy? Or it doesn't matter. And you can use tilt Gadget Stone coat countertop has.
Depends on if your installing an above sink or an under mount. If an under mount, you have to cut prior to pour because you have to finish your inner edges. The customers often don’t have a new sink picked out when we pour. That’s why we cut after we pour.
Is there a way to do this particular design if you have integrated sink? Thinking you can't but what if I did sinks separately (create a dam so that epoxy from counter doesn't drip) but then at what point do I remove the "dam" and do a pour inside the sinks with just white tinted opoxy? Is that possible to do?
That is sort of what I did on this finish. See if this video helps you any. I believe your idea is excellent and would probably work!

What do you use to cut the hole for the sink & how long should you let it cure before cutting?
We use a very tight toothed saw blade. Wait at least 10 days. Most of the time we cut the sink onsite. 😊
Can you do this on top of corian counter tops.
You bet. You’ll just have to prep first with a bonding primer. I use XIM. Then proceed as you would on MDF.
What color Behr P&P did you use on the board?
Natural Grey in a satin.
Hello, about how many drops of Alumilite dye per ounce of epoxy?
I’m not sure great at exact measurements. Depending on how opaque you want the color, I would say 1-2 drops per ounce.
What do you mean when you say you bonds your edges?
We use Bondo to cover the seam where we glue two pieces of MDF together. I’ll be doing a video on this soon. 😊
Found the marble torquise but it's not a ball 😭
The game is so stupid never ending stupid game lol I know why just don't everyone individually take responsibility for what they did so the game can end before the world ends 😭
