can colored flakes be tossed onto clear epoxy and apply 2nd coat ?

It would seem to me that you could do this. I found that the clear coat does not go as far as the epoxy does in coverage. You may need additional clear coat.

I put on the colored coat and added the flakes before it dried. then I added the clear epoxy. I think in order to do a 2nd coat of clear epoxy you need to do it quickly or you have to sand the surface for it to stick. I don't see any benefit to the flakes. just decorative. there is a phone number on the product to call the manufacturer. I will tell you if you do it right, this coating is almost impossible to mess up. I make natural soap and it has had lye on it and has not shown any effect. but the key is to do it right. if your concrete has any moisture in it, the coating will not stick. my concrete was very wet and I had to put fans on it to dry for a week. you have to do the moisture test to see if your concrete is dry. this stuff is the best! .

1st coat. You will get same texture, but two coats of paint of the entire surface.

It should be fine. It's a catalyzed material, so it pretty much works on everything. You have to spray subsequent coats while the first coat is still tacky.

Sure, the two ingredients are only activated when mixed together, so the epoxy won't harden in the tube between uses.

I wouldn't know. I sanded all the way down to remove the stain. I then stained again and applied the poly coat

I don't know? The color of the product after it dries is a real dark gray, almost black. A two part epoxy paint may stick to it.

This paint is perfect for epoxy based paint painted/glazed batch tub. We did it and it worked out well.

This product is meant for filling small imperfections prior to painting. It has no structural strength. You will need a two part epoxy or better yet, a two part reinforced fiberglass product for your repair. Fiberglass/Evercoat makes a reinforced fiberglass product that is excellent. There may be products that say they can be sanded and drilled.

You know I'm not really sure. I threw out the can so I couldn't check.Rust-oleum makes a tub and rule refinishing kit that says on it epoxy acrylic formula... But the aqua finish one doesn't say....Sorry wish I could have helped...:/

You could, but it will not be a thick top coat bar finish like an epoxy. I make my own Salad Bowl Finish by purchasing General Finishes "Arm-R-Seal" and thinning it out with 50/50 ratio with mineral spirits. It is the same thing as General Finishes Salad Bowl Finish for about 1/2 the price.

Use thin layers but you'll have to apply more coats. Making sure each one is completely dry before adding another

You can add up to ounce of `universal' type tints to each kit to make the epoxy into lighter and pastel colors. Universal Paint Tints are a liquid universal coloring system that can be mixed with oil or water-based paints. Since the epoxy is bright white, it cannot be made into dark colors since the base is white. These universal tints are available at paint stores. It is recommended that you have the paint store add the tint to the Part A (Color Component) before mixing with Part B (Epoxy Hardener). If you are using more than one kit, I would suggest mixing all Part A's together tinting before mixing with Part B (just keep mix ratio the same). Have the paint store mix in tint and put on paint shaker for even distribution. There will probably be a small fee for this.

I guess....but why you would want to do that idk. You might want to add a clear coat afterwards if you actually try that.

And, i would folliw the direction to the "t" by sanding the first coat then applying the second coat which will protect it indefinitely. For a nice finish apply twice after your first application! ! :)

This two-part epoxy, when mixed with its 'Part B' hardener (pictured), will cure in an amber color. The final result will *not* be clear.

Yes. You can use the following: Castin'Craft Transparent Dyes: These universal dyes can be used with Castin' Craft Clear Polyester Casting Resin and Easy'Cast Clear Casting Epoxy. Transparent Dyes are available in 1oz. containers with drop dispenser. Castin'Craft Opaque Pigments: These universal opaque pigments can be used with Castin' Craft Clear Polyester Casting resin and EasyCast Clear Casting Epoxy. Secondary colors such as orange and purple are easy to create by blending two or more pigments. A color blending chart is included in ETI's "Easy Cast Resin Knobs" book. Castin'Craft Opaque Pigments are available in 1 oz. containers with drop dispenser.

Yes, I mix Flex Coat 2 part epoxy in them all the time. There is only one catch though, I pour the resin in one cup and the hardener is another cup. I tried pouring both parts in the same cup, but discovered that the cup measurements are not accurate, so I started using 2 cups each time I mix and that assures me accurate parts.
