Repairing a Bad Epoxy Pour

What happens here

Carefully pour the mixed epoxy directly onto the sanded countertop in a wavy, snake-like pattern. This is a top coat application. Next, use a brush to spread the epoxy evenly across the entire surface, ensuring it fills all the micro-scuffs, cracks, and crevices. For better bubble release and to ensure uniform coverage, use a technique called 'chopping,' where you repeatedly dab the surface with the brush in a vertical motion. Also, use the brush to spread epoxy over the edges and sides, allowing it to self-level and create a smooth finish.

Goal: Apply a new, even layer of epoxy to the countertop and mantelpiece.
