I built my own bar and used decorative laminate flooring for the bar top. Will this work to seal it or will it have problems adhering to the laminate?

I used this on a coffee table I restored that was wood. It was awesome ! I don't think you would have any problems with the laminate. It is a really tough clear coat.

Yes it will but it needs to be a nice thick coat. I use it on all types of tables and fishing lures I make. I also use it on craft tiles I make for my wife and it works great. If you have never used a product like this you need to google bartop epoxy and watch some of the videos that are out there you will learn a lot. I aply it and after about 15 min. I use a heat gun over it and it takes out all the air bubbles. Again I have been using it for about 2 years. Roger

If you want the epoxy to go all the way to the edge of your project then some of it will inevitably run off. It has a high surface tension though so it wont all just fall over the edge like water. Pour it close to the edge and in the middle (like in the picture on the box) and then use something to spread it / push it closer to the edge. In order to get all the way to the edge you will probably end up pushing some off, but most of it should stay on top. I would add that I used the exact amount recommended for my square footage (I think it was 64 oz for 9 sq ft) and I wished I had just a bit more. Also if you have any cracks do a pre seal or seal with some polyurethane first as it will leak through. There are some decent youtube videos demonstrating the proper application process as well.

You can use either. Cork will transmit less noise. If the laminate is floating, you don't have to glue down the cork, just tape the seems. If you are gluing down the laminate, you would have to glue down the cork first. In either case, the 1/4" plywood would be stapled down with a pneumatic stapler (or screwed, but that is a lot of work). Staples every 4-5" in the body of the plywood, every 2" around the edge. This is assuming that you have a plywood subfloor, not concrete.

The only "adhesive" that came with mine is to close the gap at the bottom, and I didn't use it. I have hardwood flooring and don't recommend using adhesive to affix anything to it.

We used it with semi-gloss oil based polyurethane for our steps and it does prevent slipping . I don't see that there would be much difference from our oak base and a laminate

It should work fine if you want a clear glasslike finish on the whole wood surface. It is probably not the best use for it if you are just filling holes. It is also self-leveling. I used it to embed craft beer bottle lids on a tray and it turned out well.

Cindy, do you mean laminate flooring? In my experience the anti-slip spray works like spray paint and should stick to any surface. You may have some dulling of the shine on the laminate. Weigh the risk of a slip/fall against that concern. Perhaps try the product on a small section and see the result? My 82 year old mother loves this stuff and calls when she runs low so I can "get on the computer and send her some more". Best wishes, John

I'm not sure if what I used was epoxy, but I used an industrial sealant on my garage floor. It didn't change the color but it made it look like it was wet and it made sweeping and using a squeegee great. Anyway, I applied 3 of them and they worked and continue to work great 3 years later, but one of them eventually did come lose. This was because the area where I put it, the concrete was uneven so the entire thing wasn't adhered. Anyway, that one stayed put for over a year before it came off and it did not remove any of my sealant.

Just checked bottle. Nothing about laminate. All it says is "safely adds protective urethane layer." Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I would consult the mfg. of the flooring to make sure it will not cause the adhesive of the floor to release.

I did not use this on a laminated floor... i used it on my concrete garage floor....and it worked great...looks like a showroom floor now!

This is laminated wood, so it is easy to wipe up/off. I don't think you need to separately seal it. But if so, a water sealant should be adequate, but make sure it is oil based so it will adhere to the laminated surface.

use a nice piece of 1 X 4 or smaller and stain or paint it and attach it to the bar letting it stick out enough to cover the unfinished edges. This is what I did and looks nice.

In my opinion Yes it would be. Just apply 2 or maybe 3 coats, keep your coats very thin, in other words don't leave thick puddles of sealer on the wood. What will happen if you do leave thick coats is that it won't dry properly and will remain very sticky for several days.

i havent tried it but if it was a smooth sureface or if you were to cover it with a 1/4" luan i would think it would stick well.smooth finish ply wood should work as well..

I used it against wood stair riser and bamboo flooring. I used a clear drying construction adhesive and pinned it with a finish nailer.

Better ask the manufacturer. It may depending on how thick and how soft the metal is. As I understand it, laminate flooring has a thin layer of aluminum on it.
