I'm new to epoxy..I did a flood coat on my table top.. came out great but the side didn't come out great.. can I add epoxy to edges or do I need to re flood the table
Great question! You can absolutely add some epoxy to the edges of your table. If it has completely cured I would recommend lightly scuffing the sides with either 220 grit sandpaper (or even a scotchbrite pad) and wiping it down with Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or higher first. Then proceed with applying a thin layer of either our Superclear Table Top Epoxy or Countertop Epoxy. This can be done by hand, with a chip brush, or a foam brush. The reason for scuffing the surface is to help with proper adhesion for a mechanical bond. If it is too smooth of a surface there may not be a proper bond, which could potentially lead to delamination down the road. If it is still hard & tacky, skip the sanding and go right ahead with applying the next thin coating using the products mentioned above. Here are some links to those products: Superclear Table Top Epoxy: tinyurl.com/3wwjzfsj Superclear Countertop Epoxy: tinyurl.com/mrx5eyse Superclean Epoxy Cleaner: www.superepoxysystems.com/product/superclean-epoxy-cleaner-8oz-bottle/ Scotchbrite Pad: www.superepoxysystems.com/product/3m-scotchbright-light-duty-pads/
let me say this.... Superclear Epoxy is the BOMB! not only is the product everything you could ever want plus more BUT the customer service is AMAZING. Side note - My husband is a video editor and the production of this video is done very well. Very informative, thank you
I've been using Liquid Glass for about 4 years. Best epoxy I've ever used!! I mostly make epoxy river cutting boards but have also made a few small tables. They turn out beautiful! I also use Black Diamond pigments. Both are nothing but the best!! You wanna make good products use good ingredients.
The direction that come with your epoxy recommends using the sealant first. I cant find what its refering to. Is that the glass top? Also it says the temperature needs to be between 70& 85 I think but your x Video says keep the epoxy cool. Please clarify. Ty
That's what is confusing,. The directions say use sealant or curing agent. This is not addressed in the video. Also, the temperature needs to be 70 to 80° The video says, "Keep cool. Heat is an enemy. Which is it?
I don't understand how so many epoxy companies have not tested for cps rating. It' has to be one of the most important stats and Liquid Glass doesn't test for it.
Hey there! We do actually have a CPS rating for all of our products on our website 😉 Here's the link to the Liquid Glass TDS in particular: www.superepoxysystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Liquid-Glass-Epoxy-System-TDS-12-08-21.pdf And here's the link to all of our SDS/TDS/Instructions: www.superepoxysystems.com/instructions-tds-sds/
@@superclearepoxy That's good to hear! I tried looking on your website the day I left my comment and could not find anything about CPS. I even tried running a search for the term CPS and found nothing.
Hi there! Did you ever come back & video the "fix" on the square piece ? I was wondering how you did the dome and what you used. I've made coasters that i feel definietly need a top pour. Thx so much! I also have the liquid glass deep pour epoxy but a little gun-shy to start a project with it. Still new to resin and trying to pin down what i want to do with it🤪!
Hey Michelle - thanks for reaching out! We haven't fixed that project yet, but we certainly plan on it. Our next video will be on our 24 Hour Deep Pour Epoxy, and that will be our last product breakdown for a bit. We will most likely work on some DIY projects and that square piece you mentioned. A quick summary for how we plan to restore it would be by sanding it down beneath the blemishes, cleaning with Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or higher, followed by either a polishing compound or a flood coat with our Superclear Table Top Epoxy. Hope that helps! Have a great one 😊
Great question - we actually did NOT use any mold release in this product breakdown. BUT - if we did, we would highly recommend a paste wax mold release for use with Liquid Glass Deep Pour Epoxy. The sprayable mold release tends to dissolve before the deep pour epoxy cures. You can find the mold release on our online store: www.superepoxysystems.com/product-category/tools-accessories/mold-releases/
I am in cold climate don't want to epoxy in my house. I have a garage but like I said it's getting cold here. Any suggestions for me to setup in garage?
Hey Michelle, we have heard of people using a seed heating mat to place under their mold to help bring up the temperature, but we don't have any first hand experience with this. Feel free to give it a shot, but keep in mind that introducing too much heat could have adverse results on the outcome of your pour 👍
Great question - we don't personally notice any strong odor with this product, but others may be more sensitive. Feel free to pour in either location 👍
We were spraying it with Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or higher, but you can also use our Superclean Epoxy Cleaner. Superclean Epoxy Cleaning Spray: www.superepoxysystems.com/product/superclean-epoxy-cleaner-8oz-bottle/ Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or Higher: fgci.com/product/isopropyl-alcohol-99/
Sorry to hear you are dealing with unwanted bubbles! The epoxy could be too warm or too cold. Please email superclear@fgci.com and our experts will be happy to assist you further.
That would be awesome, HOWEVER, this product does not hold up well to direct UV sun light exposure. It will significantly decrease the clarity in a short span of time. Also if it is sitting out in the sun, if it gets too warm (around 150F-160F), this could cause the resin to become flexible. Let us know how it goes though.. 🫠

✍🏾 2:1, 2A:1B, Measure “B” (curing agent) out first. I cup to pour. Another to mix. Mix slow and scrap the sides
You've learned well young epoxy padawan 🙇

That's great to hear 😊 Anything we could improve on for future videos?
Would you recommend a vaccum put to degas before a pour???

I’m just now starting using Liquid Glass epoxy. Could you recommend the grits and order of usages when it comes to sanding the epoxy
Which product would be best to use for faux fruit ie grape vine and grape clusters?

Does this deep pour have a strong odor? Can I pour in the basement shop or will I have to do it in the garage?

What are you spraying to clean yhe mixer
We were spraying it with Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or higher, but you can also use our Superclean Epoxy Cleaner.

Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or Higher: fgci.com/product/isopropyl-alcohol-99/
Can I seal a slab with tabletop and then use deep pour while the tabletop epoxy is tacky?
YES 👍 That is exactly what we would suggest!
@@superclearepoxy Thanks!
What's the working pot life?
Hey there, it typically takes around 10-12 hours for the Liquid Glass Deep Pour Epoxy to gel up. Let me know if you have any other questions!
What is the correct name of the mixing container?
We call them mixing containers or buckets, but we sell these: www.superepoxysystems.com/product/epoxy-resin-mixing-cups/
I mixed slowly, used torch and heat gun. Nothing but micro bubbles! What am I doing wrong?
Sorry to hear you are dealing with unwanted bubbles! The epoxy could be too warm or too cold. Please email superclear@fgci.com and our experts will be happy to assist you further.
What will happen if the pour is not quite 2 inches?
Hey there! That's a great question. It will cure no problem between .5" up to 4"+ depending on your volume and ambient temperature. Go for it! 👍

Sorry about that 😅
I really needed to watch this video, but the music damn near made me stop half way through.
Heard - we will be fixing that moving forward! 😅
the background noise is so irritating
