FAQ

  • Is epoxy heat resistant?
    Yes! Our epoxy can handle temperatures between 180-200 degrees. This mean you will still have to use a heat pad when placing pans from oven or cook top on epoxy counter. Some epoxy contractors will claim that their epoxy can handle 400 or 500 degrees and this is simply not true. If you would like to proove this just ask the contractor for a sample that you can have and then put a hot pan on it.
