Collection: Countertop Kits

Yes! You can use our Countertop Epoxy on newly fabricated countertops, including MDF and other substrates like concrete, wood, and butcher block. Just keep in mind that there's no need to apply Bonding Primer & Sealer when coating new MDF countertops, and that you'll only need to apply seal coats of Countertop Epoxy prior to pouring a clear flood coat on raw wood surfaces.

For best results, DO NOT use acetone to clean or prep your surface.

We recommend using 91% isopropyl alcohol for:

• Surface preparation before pouring
  
• Cleaning between poured layers
  
• Creating cell textures and effects (if applicable)
  

Using acetone may interfere with adhesion and final finish quality. Stick with 91% isopropyl alcohol for a clean, professional result.

All countertop epoxy products, regardless of the manufacturer, can gradually amber or discolor over time. White or lighter epoxy applications exposed to direct sunlight are particularly susceptible to this change. At Stone Coat, our countertop epoxies feature the highest level of UV resistance in the industry, thanks to the inclusion of UV-resistant additives and Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS). By following our best practices and applying Epoxy Undercoat and our Ultimate Top Coat, you can ensure your countertops maintain their color fastness for an extended period.

Yes, our Countertop Epoxy has a shelf life of one year when unopened. Once opened, exposure to oxygen begins to degrade the epoxy. To maximize shelf life, tightly reseal your bottles between uses, and if possible, purge oxygen with inert gas before storage. For the best results, store your epoxy in a cool, dark place. After opening, it should last about six months when stored properly.
