We have let the base coat on our counter top dry for about 48 hours. This is more then enough time for it to be dry and ready for the next step which is sponging on the colors for our granite effect.
We've assembled what we will need to do the granite effect and are ready to begin applying the base color.
We have our bottles of base colors, a natural sea sponge for each color, artist brushes for adding the veins and detail and throw away Glad storage containers.
We've added about a tablespoon of paint to a container and picked one of the sponges to apply it with.
I've recorded video to show you exactly how to begin applying your color to the base coat of the counter top.
We're going to wait until this is completely dry and then apply the second layer of color which is the next lightest brown Hazelnut. I'll be using a different piece of sea sponge to change the pattern and will update this post with more photos and video.
Stay tuned!
