Expoxy Countertops-Has Anyone Tried This?

[Sandy Uhlmann]

I was looking for a way to provide a higher-end look to a rental home at a bargain price and I came across some pics/how to videos of expoxy countertops and I was wondering if anyone has tried this?  The kind that I am speaking of is a product where you can use existing countertop, wood, or cut MDF or MDX any shape that you want and then POUR (as oppose to the sponged on product) the expoxy that has color added, onto your countertop/MDF.  You can pour on and mix as many colors as you like to get the look you want.  After the product is poured on, you quickly go over it with a torch to pop the bubbles.  The look is very impressive (at least on the videos) but I wonder how it holds up to scratches overtime.  It is the same coating that they use in bars over wood but you can add color into the mix.

Here is the link to one of the brands of this:

Has anyone used this product and care to comment on it?

I am currently remodeling my parents home and I used something similar.  Only I used this on concrete counter tops.  If your looking for relatively cheap ($10per linear ft) counter tops, I would definately suggest it.  

When I coated the concrete I had a problem with small pits causing air bubbles.  Took me some time to figure it out but it happened, and their GORGEOUS.
