I ran across this today on Youtube and thought I would share a link.  Interesting, at least to me, to see the process.

Thanks for posting! It was cool to see the time lapse of the final sanding and polishing stages. You could see the clarity and shine of the finish improving at each step.

Thanks for posting this Peter!  I am actually soon to be using this product!  I may attempt to setup a video camera and watch myself in action!

Always thought that epoxies needed a UV protection toplayer to prevent the epoxy from degrading.
Have not seen that on the video.

At least that's necessary with West Systems Epoxies.
But these epoxies date from 1971 but are still one of the best.

Maybe other brands don't need that UV protection any more.

Yes he does.  Hopefully some of the video watchers will check out his other stuff.

A big THANK YOU for posting this. I have always wondered how this worked as have seen it used in so many restaurants and bars. Might just try this out!

Thanks for sharing Peter. Nice bartop and woodshop. That finish is nice. Not sure if it was stated in the vid, but that would be an interior only dealio.
