Amazing Finish!: Epoxy Tile Adhesive

UV PRO is an amazing epoxy. I can say that with confidence. I've never used epoxy on a countertop so this was my first attempt. Epoxy takes a lot of practice and I've practiced with crack filling and gluing. However, this was my first desktop coat. UV Pro blends perfectly and cures in 6 hours resulting in a smooth, smooth, hard and even coating. It's perfect for countertops and the result is amazing. I am impressed with the epoxy, the instructions and the company (Incredible Solutions) who answered many of my questions and helped me with this exercise. However, working with epoxy is quite challenging and my table is still a work in progress. . First, all cracks in the countertop must be filled and then leveled (sanded). If it doesn't, the epoxy will run down the crack, leaving a "gorge" on the topcoat. I've spent months filling the cracks and still haven't been able to fill all the holes and cracks. Therefore, I would recommend any user working old thick wood to pre-treat the table to fill cracks and prevent blisters. Incredible Solutions makes recommendations here. Second, I couldn't burst all the bubbles. I think it was due to the lack of pre-treatment mentioned in my first point, not the epoxy. I used a heat gun to pop the blisters and it was effective, but I have a few trained blisters that I'm fixing. So I still have some work to do to prepare the first coat for the second, final coat, but I'm sure it will turn out fine considering the epoxy itself gives such a nice finish. I plan to update!
