What is an epoxy resin table?

An epoxy resin table is any table top, countertop or surface that has been coated with epoxy resin. Most are coated with clear epoxy to protect and show off the wood, but epoxy can also be tinted with colorants for vivid colors and patterns.

For an epoxy table top, our UltraClear Bar & Table Top Epoxy is the ideal choice. It's commercial grade yet simple to apply, and it self levels to 1/8 inch per coat, about twice the thickness of most epoxy resins, for a stronger finish that protects your table for years.

How much epoxy do I need for a table top?

Epoxy table tops are usually done in two stages: a seal coat followed by a flood coat.

~48 sq ft

per gallon: seal coat

A thin coat brushed on to seal porous wood, so air bubbles don't rise into the flood coat and the flood coat bonds cleanly.

14 to 16 sq ft

per gallon: flood coat at 1/8 inch

The main pour. It self levels across your table, you remove any air bubbles, and it cures to a glass like finish.

What kind of epoxy do I need for a table?

Hardware store top coat kits are tempting, but many cure with a yellow or amber tint and don't stand the test of time. For quality, lifespan and protection, UltraClear Bar & Table Top Epoxy gives you a commercial grade, long lasting finish.

Our epoxy has been used in bars and restaurants across the United States for years, and it's built to stand up to high traffic. Want color? Add Pigmently Mica Powder for a one of a kind table.
