Giani Countertop Paint Clear Acrylic High-Gloss Topcoat- Step 3

Perfect!

I did not use the paint kit, I had painted using a competitive brands kit (cheaper) however the clear coat from the competition was a more mate coat and it did not look at all like a marble look I wanted. So in the end I spent MORE money trying to save money with the competition because I still had to buy the top coat and thrilled I did because is was super easy to use, went on smooth, and dried to a perfect clear. Exactly what I wanted!

I used this on my old laminate kitchen counters and was very pleased overall. It originally had come as a kit. I used it as a kit but needed more topcoat when I decided to lightly sand it and do it over. The only problem I ran into was when I was rolling I noticed streaks from the roller brush. I think it was mostly due to the time it took for me to roll it by myself. My counter is fairly big and by the time I completed one section and started in another the product was already beginning to dry. I would still recommend this product but would suggest that maybe 2 people roll at the same time to prevent streaking.

Used other products that caused ann awful mess , yellowing , sticky , never dries …Love how this self levels, dries fast, not sticky, looks great no yellowing !!!!

Great finish for counter top after applying the Marble paint to old formica counter top. Followed the instructions to the letter for a perfect finish. Dries hard in a day or so....takes about 2 weeks to "cure". Clean with mild detergent....I don't put hot pans on the counter top either....not taking any chances on ruining all the work! I finished my kitchen counter tops in about 3 days and am very happy with the results...really worth the money when you can't or don't want to spend money on replacing counter top.

I used this product to seal my countertops in my bathroom which I painted to look like soapstone. I used other brands of primer and paint, but I wanted something incredibly durable for the top coat due to the nature of the bathroom always being wet. I decided to try this product even though they recommend only using it with their paints.I read previous reviews that said to do 5 or 6 coats, so I did that but other than that I followed the directions exactly. It looks so great, is not sticky at all, holds up to all the water around the sinks, and held up nicely to my cleaning products. I’m very very happy with this finish! Definitely recommend.

Cost effective but did not like that the colour changed.

I used this kit on my kitchen and needed to ‘polish up’ the top coat, it’s like reapplying a top coat to your nail polish to freshen things up.Please note that the kit results, including the top coat is not meant to look straight and even on your surface. It’s supposed to look smooth but bumpy so don’t freak out that it’s not nailpolish smooth.I found it a bit difficult to go over with a roller because it dries sooo fast that some spots didn’t have a chance to smooth out - don’t apply more product to wet areas in that case - it’ll only make it worse. Try applying a drop of water and lightly tapping in w your finger for small areas (just like if you scuff wet nail polish, you can save it if you gently lick the nail.)Jeez, I really like my nail polish in this review... you might be imagining a woman with 50 inch nails by now. That’s not the case :)
