Bar & Table Top Epoxy is a 1:1 ratio epoxy system allowing for 1/8¨ flood coats
on tables, countertops, bar tops, jewelery and art projects. The perfect resin for using with
mica powder, alcohol ink, resin dyes and resin tints to create faux finishes! Low heat, VOC free, and Low odor makes this
product perfect for the professional, DIYers, artists, the everyday woodworker, or hobbyist.
Before Combining: Resin-A and Hardener-B liquid temp should be between 70°F and 85°F before mixing. Work space
air temp should be no warmer than 85°F, free of dirt and dust. Avoid working in high humidity. If the A and B are cooler
than 70°F, warm the closed containers in hot tap water. If crystals are present in A or B, place the closed containers in
120°F tap water until crystals dissolve. Let containers cool. ONLY use A and B when liquid temp 85°F or under to prevent
premature curing.
Level Surface & Cleaning: We recommend using and applying this product on a leveled and flat work surface. Do not
use a tack cloth to clean the surface. Tack clothes can leave fibers behind. Thoroughly wipe and clean the surface before a
pour with acetone and wipe dry with shop towels.
Mixing: Thorough mixing is very important! Use a clear mixing bucket with exact mix ratios printed on the side! Measure
1 part Resin-A to 1 part Hardener-B and mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with a paint stick or paddle mixer attached to a drill
until swirls and tails disappear. Pour mixed epoxy into a second clean mixing container and mix for 1 minute. This ensures
no unmixed A or B contaminates the final pour. If more than 1 kit is needed, measure and mix multiple 1:1 batches;
combine and mix each batch together to create a homogeneous blend before final pour. Add colorants if applicable when
epoxy is completely mixed. Work space should be dirt and dust free.
CAUTION: Mix slow to not introduce air into the mixed epoxy.
Seal Coat: In order to prevent air from escaping out of the surface material the epoxy will be applied to, a seal coat
is a must prior to a final flood coat. Use either the WiseBond
®
Bar & Table Top epoxy (seal coat cures in 18-24 hrs) or
the WiseBond
®
Quick Set Seal (seal coat cures in 2-3 hours). Apply the seal coat epoxy as a thin layer with a smooth
plastic spreader/scraper over the entire surface that will later have a flood coat of clear epoxy or a faux finish applied. 2-3
multiple seal coats may be needed depending on porosity of the wood, countertop or bar top material. Sand with 220 grit
between coats for leveling if needed. Sides and edges of the material should also be sealed to prevent air escaping.
Pot-Life: Product in a mixing container may last 15-20 minutes before beginning to gel. Product a mixing container may
heat up after 15-20 minutes. Follow all safety instructions listed.
Work Time: Prior to product beginning to gel, work time may be as long as 30 minutes as a thin layer depending on air
temp, width, length and overall epoxy surface area. Do not breathe in vapors.
Flood Coats: Apply flood coat using a 1/4¨ notched plastic trowel to spread evenly. Flood coat coverage is 12 sq.ft. at 1/8"
thick per combined gallon. Use thin pours of no more than 1/4 inch. Pour the mixed resin onto the surface and distribute
