Description
Countertop Epoxy Workshop (2-Day Hands-On Class)
This two-day workshop is built for anyone who wants to confidently create professional-quality epoxy countertops and backsplashes, whether you’re a DIYer leveling up or a contractor adding a high-margin service.
This class is taught by Nick from NEO Nick Epoxy, a longtime professional installer who has been working with Diamond Coat Epoxy for around 10 years. Nick brings real-world jobsite experience, proven methods, and the small details that make the difference between “pretty good” and truly professional results.
You’ll learn the full process from start to finish: how to fabricate and prep countertops, build and pour backsplashes, avoid common failures, and deliver a clean, durable, high-end finish. Day 1 happens in a classroom-style setting with live demos, guided practice, and sample work. Day 2 moves to a real job site where you’ll participate in a full backsplash installation and complete an epoxy countertop project from prep to finish.
