Is the color mixed in with the epoxy or applied afterwards? what kind of epoxy you recommend to replace seams(granite).

I use 2 part epoxy. Mix the color in the resin before mixing in the Hardner. Make sure to use equal parts of resin and hardner.

This product is more like an oil than a top coat finish so it depends on what the other product you have used as to how it all might look if you go ahead and apply the polyx to the rubbed off area. The good news is that you could give this product a try, and then if it hasn't blended in well, then try sanding later. When you sand afterwards it's not the same as sanding off a 'varnish', you are simply sanding the floor boards themselves (as the polyx is absorbed rather than sitting on the surface). Hope this makes sense. I also am no expert, just a user.

I'm sure this epoxy would work well for your application because of its strength and flexibility, but it does have an amber color that may not be visually appealing.

From the Miracle Sealants website: http://miraclesealants.com/faq_answers/faq_answers_07.htmlI used the Porous Plus after my installer put 3 coats of the Sealer and Enhancer on my Kashmir White granite and the countertop still absorbed water. After 2 coats of Porous Plus, as recommended on the container, the granite appears to be impervious to water staining, it looks more lustrous and feels smoother. For my Kashmir White granite it did the trick and I think it's worth the price. I would stay with this product for my particular stone.

I personally bought it for granite. I would use a wax or something on marble, I think.

I think it could be is possible. The little heated knife that you use to melt the color block and apply to the tile will re-melt the mixed colors. It will be slow going though as you can only get so much of the stuff on the knife. I mixed the colors on the damaged area. So, I haven't tried it but, will next time. Good idea!

It depends on what kind of sealer is allready on the stone,If it is a topical sealer it will not let the color enhancer of the new sealer take affect and the areas were the old sealer is worn off it will.So this will greatly affect the final look of the new sealer.

This two-part epoxy, when mixed with its 'Part B' hardener (pictured), will cure in an amber color. The final result will *not* be clear.

I have used it on lighter granite with great success (also used with a sponge). Given how granite tends to vary a good bit, I took some and worked it into the underside of the countertop that is not visible first to make sure it did not impact the color/finish, and I think this is probably a good assurance check before using on the visible portion of the countertop.

Yes, this is the stuff you want to use. I used it on my garage and put it over my rustoleum epoxy shield gray color. I did it almost a year ago and it looks just as shiny as the day I did it. Make sure to use the grit (aluminum oxide) it comes with to mix into the clear coat in the bucket or the floor will be extremely slippery if ever gets even slightly wet. You have to do it within 30 hours (I think) of laying down the primary color or you have to scuff the entire floor for it adhere properly. The instructions will clearly state this. This stuff is extremely durable. I have rolled heavy floor jacks over it and put jack stands on it and it doesn't even get scratched. Any liquids (even harsh ones) just wipe up with a per towel. If you use one can go very heavy on the application or buy two and do two coats over two days. I did one garage with one heavy coat and one garage with two medium coats and the two coats look better than the heavy coat but it also took two cans. You have to have someone with a strong flashlight (wife?) following you and shining it at a very low angle to make sure you overlap edges and don't miss anything.

A contrarian here. .. If I was filling a very narrow crack or shallow crack, I would use CA glue (red label, thin) . Anything else and I would use epoxy, you get more working time and I think a clearer matrix for the work. Inlay with with turquoise implies a larger void and I would think epoxy is easiest. There are 2 other viscosities CA glue that might work as well... medium and thick. .. yellow and green label for hot stuff.

It will form a solid patch, but as you suspect the color would be off (for me it dried a dark gray). I do not know if you can mix it with brick dust to match the coloring. I suspect that mixing it would change the consistency and then you'd have to mix in water or another liquid to maintain it. It could prove complicated, messy, and may alter the performance of the product. An alternative could be to use the patch to partially fill in the hole, and then find another product with the appropriate coloring to top the hole off with.

I'm still experimenting with this myself, but i believe there is indeed a difference between the two. the densifier is to be applied after you grind to about 600-800 grit clean it and apply the densifier. this is supposed to change the structure of the concrete by filling the microscopic pores in the concrete. You can see if you need it after the 800 grit grind because the marble chips are starting to "slick up" and the concrete around the chips is still dull. (Make sure you wipe up all the old grit before going to the next grit. I use a clean damp rag each time.) Follow the instruction included or go on-line, as to how you mix this stuff, how you apply it and how long you let it set. I'm pretty sure its caustic so follow safety procedures as they recommend. After the densifier, continue through the grits and when finished, the sealer goes on last to close the pores of the floor to make it more stain resistant. I have seen certain comments on line that indicates it can dull the finished gloss a little so try it before going whole hog on the floor.

itll take a weekend.... after the countertop has been prepped and most of that time will be waiting for the basecoat/ clearcoat to cure. itll be soft for a week but gently useable. its very messy sprinkling the granite looking flakes but covering the floor and a little vaccuuming will take care of it how fast it gets hard depends on temp and humidity. in a hurry? crank the heat for a few days

I haven't used it yet, but my marble fabricators use it and recommended this product for me to reapply down the road. Instructions seem very easy. So yes, to your question:)

Granite is not sealed at the factory. It is sealed after it is installed. Be sure to use an appropriate sealer if your installers did not do that for you.
