im impressed, pretty and handy!!

lee lovely I’m so happy I could help! Hope your project goes well! 😊

I am doing my today in the pewter color!! I love your idea if mixing the white and gray to add more to it. Can’t wait !!

Thank You for a Great Informative Video!! Great Step -by -step Instructions for All The Prep work. Especially using the regular wood putty to fix any damage or cracks. I was not able to find any kind of repair kits or products to fix things like that. Everyone is out of stock. Great video!! Thank You

Nice job. Love it!

Nice job! Cheers from England xx

Seeing few patches of paint on the wall, no matter how good you think you are, always put tape all over the counter, sink…and cover the lowers cabinets with plastic.

Great idea to use the two colors for a "marbleized" look. How is the surface holding up now - scratches, scuff marks, peeling, etc.? Does the surface need some kind of clear coat as a protectant? Thanks

Great job

I'll give you A for effort, I love your tenacity;)

Great job! My problem is my laminate is lifting off the particle base, and there humps on the surface. What can I do for that?

Hello! Thank you for your advice and especially for being so beautiful and gentle, I love the texture of your skin, I hope one day you will publish a video of your vacation, I think we need to see you and understand you closer, greetings and hugs

Damp cloth over paint tray before refrigerating, something to try.

Looks great 👍 how has this help up?

So I know it’s just a rental but I wonder how well they held up for the tenant. They look great though! I can’t wait to try mine! You had a lot more detail than most videos I’ve seen.

It looks great! Can I buy stoned countertop paint?

I hope you used paintable silicone calk! I've done so many houses where they used unpaintable calk, and it sucks!

Hello was wondering if you had any feedback on the wear and tear of the the paint you used on the counter tops??

@emmanies4901

It’s been about 6 months now and it’s holding up great! I think as long as you prep them well it should stay pretty good!

After how long would you say the smell went away?

Did you add some polyethylene on top to seal or just leave as is.

Good work! Was the white paint also rustoleum?

@emmanies4901

Yes, they’re the same paint!

The trick is not to load your brush too much with any paint job, this stops any drips

You can use colored calk too.

Yes you can! I use PAINTABLE calk. if you don't paint won't stick!

Clean with tsp, then sand, so you don’t sand grim into the counters.

How is it holding up after a2 years???

What’s better I wonder their countertop paint or their restorations kit?

@emmanies4901

Seeleygirl I believe the restoration kit is more durable because it is epoxy based. However, it’s also harder to do (if I’m not mistaken)

I think what you should’ve done was just get some rest oleum clear spray paint and just spray-painted the grey colour and it would’ve been looking nice and glossy and pretty without the marks

That wouldn’t have held up and I did not want it glossy.

Did you use a sealer on these when you were done painting them ?

You did a good job on the tile in the shower but that is an absolutely awful place for it to be. You'd be hitting your head on the ceiling constantly unless you stood right next to the shower head lol! A curtain would be a nightmare to keep in place too.

They only rent to very short people. lol. -- I agree with you 100%! I saw the shower and thought, "the ceiling needs to be tiled! and only very short people can fit in there."

You may have done this alot but alot of people have not.

Are you a DYI site or make up review channel? It seems you know alot about what you're doing in this video, maybe do more?

Not my cup of tea...
