Rustoleum Countertop Transformation | DIY Bathroom Makeover

hey everyone and welcome back to my channel continuing on with our bathroom makeover series today I wanted to show you how I redid our countertops using an epoxy spray so first let me show you how our countertops looked as you can see they are a little bit yellow dingy a little worn they have kind of have this weird marbling effect they're just dated and old and while I don't expect this fix to last forever I'm hoping to get a year or two out of having to redo my whole entire bathroom so it's a temporary fix but it'll give us a little bit of time so I am starting by cleaning off the counter tops with a cleaner this one is not very abrasive and a clean towel and I'm just gonna go ahead and clean off the surface also I grabbed a 100 grit sandpaper and after everything's clean I'm just going to go through and sand the surface lightly to take anything you know give it something to stick to so after the countertop is sanded I'm going to take a damp towel and wipe all the dust off and clear it all off make it really clean and I'm going to go through with a microfiber towel this one's a little old but it still works and get any dust off that you can see it all I want a totally clean surface you don't want anything interfere and next I'm asked everything off the overspray from this product is pretty intense so I would recommend covering anything that you don't want to get sprayed I would have even done the toilet hindsight but it's not that big of a deal i masked everything off the green frog tape is by far my favorite masking tape it means leaves really nice lines and I never have any problems with it so I masked off the drain spout really well the faucet because we're not painting our faucet and just to be sure I went over everything again with a clean microfiber towel so this is the spray that I used it is the rust-oleum appliance epoxy and it is washable moisture resistant smooth factory-like finish and I cannot say enough about this product I love the difference it made in our countertops so I started by spraying me countertop and my biggest mistake was not wearing a mask wear a mask the spray and the smell is pretty intense you want to use any ventilation open a window if you have one so I quickly realized I needed a mask so I had to make you but I have to say the first coat was really easy just make sure you don't like overspray a spot and it puddle up there was a couple of times where I noticed a hair I just grabbed it out and then spray over it and you really cannot tell at all if you do happen to get like a little puddle right in the sink I did notice like a little bit of dripping so I just grabbed a towel and wiped it and then sprayed over it before it dried [Music] [Music] [Music] so after I sprayed the first coat I let that dry for about 15 to 20 minutes and then went back with a second coat this is a video of after the first coat and you can still see like some imperfections it's just the first layer it's not a huge difference like I said it doesn't cover everything we had these little dings in there but it really is not a big deal at all and this is the video after the second coat so I went and pulled the tape off probably about an hour after it dried I just didn't want it to dry like 100% completely before I pulled the tape off and I made a good choice it worked out really well and as you can see this reveal is pretty amazing [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so I cannot rave enough about this product it took our old ugly marbled orange-yellow effect countertops to this stark white crisp clean counter I was very impressed with this product I will let you guys know how it holds up but I cannot say enough about it [Music] so let's take a quick look at what we started with these old ugly yellow countertops and we use the epoxy spray making it a seven dollar fix that is amazing I just want to thank you guys for tuning in today and coming along with me on this journey this has been such a fun series and we still have more videos left so keep tuning in subscribe if you haven't and don't forget to check out our next video we will be doing the floors thanks
