Metallic Epoxy

Direct Colors Metallic Epoxy Countertop Sealer is a protective clear finish, two-component epoxy resin. Epoxy provides a deep, wet-look finish on countertops and concrete floors. Metallic pigments provide a beautiful one-of-a-kind, shimmering color effect in the epoxy finish. For best results, top coat the epoxy with our Solvent-Based Polyurethane Sealer. Epoxy will abrade and discolor over time if the polyurethane coat is omitted. Do not apply epoxy to outdoor or indoor surfaces in direct sunlight.

HOW TO APPLY METALLIC EPOXY COUNTERTOP SEALER

1. Pour all or part of the contents of the 2oz. container metallic pigment into the resin and carefully fold the metallic into the resin using the wooden stir stick. Stir for at least 2 minutes until completely combined.
2. Allow metallic pigment and resin mixture to rest for 5 to 10 minutes and stir again for good suspension before adding the hardener.
3. Add the hardener to resin and thoroughly mix according to the mixing instructions below. Working with metallic pigment in epoxy is a creative process.
4. Use more or less metallic pigment to create surface designs or expose more of the countertop base color.
5. While contrasting base colors aren’t required, it does provide more color variation and “pop” for the metallic color coat.
