A customer Asks: “I am looking to do my bar top. Can I stain it with polyurethane before I install Epoxy.com Product #214 100% Solids Epoxy Casting Tabletop and Bar Top Resin?”
Answer: It is always better to bond the Epoxy.com Product #214100% Solids Epoxy Casting Tabletop and Bar Top Resin directly to the substrate so you will get the strongest possible bond. However, if you must stain you should use a stain that does not waterproof the substrate. Of course you should always do a mockup if you plan to use any kind of stain. Some people like to use Epoxy.com Product #1 a two component, zero (0) VOC, 100% solids epoxy Hi-Build epoxy coating as a pigmented background. That way you have the strength of Epoxy, while getting a background color.
