Learn the Diamond Coat Microcement and Epoxy system in four days.
A complete coatings class at The Ranch. Countertops, floors, walls, showers, tubs, outdoor surfaces, microcement, and premium finishes. You'll prep, pour, trowel, burnish, and seal on real surfaces alongside installers who run these jobs for a living, then walk out able to quote any coating a client asks for.
Nobody calls you about a coating. They call you about a room they're tired of looking at.
And once you're standing in it, the conversation almost never stops at one surface. The floor turns into the counters, the counters turn into the shower, the shower turns into the patio. The installers making real money are the ones who can answer all of it without sending the client somewhere else. That means knowing the whole lineup, not one product.
More of the house is billable
Epoxy owns floors and hard-wearing tops. Microcement and plaster open walls, showers, stairs, curved work, and exterior counters. Same crew, same trip, more square footage on the invoice.
The prep skills carry across
Substrate evaluation, moisture testing, grinding, and priming are shared ground under everything we sell. Learn it once and it applies to every system in the lineup. We teach that overlap deliberately.
You stop losing the whole job
When a client wants a seamless shower and you only pour floors, someone else takes the bathroom and usually the kitchen with it. Carrying the full lineup means you keep the scope.
Sample boards you take home
You'll build finished boards across the four days and leave with them. They're your technique reference and the single best selling tool you can set on a client's counter.
Taught by working installers
Not influencers, not facilitators. The people teaching you run the jobs. You learn what holds up on a real slab in real conditions, including the failures worth avoiding.
Lifetime 15% product discount
Graduates get a permanent 15% discount across the entire Diamond Coat catalog. If you do this professionally, that's real money on every order you place.
Organized by the job, not by the product.
Each day is built around a stage of the work or a set of surfaces, and you learn every coating that applies to it back to back. That's how you build the judgment to walk into a room and know what belongs on each surface before you ever write a number down.
Day 1 · Reading the surface and getting it right underneath
Everything you install succeeds or fails on what's under it. You'll evaluate real substrates, run moisture tests, grind and profile, prime, and put down your first coats so the way each material behaves is in your hands by the end of the first day.
Reading the surface
- Evaluating tile, concrete, wood, laminate, drywall, and stone
- Moisture testing and mitigation strategy
- Settling, fractures, spalling, and unstable concrete
- Grinding, profiling, and dust control
- Expansion joints and where movement will show up
- When to build new versus coat what's there
Priming and first coats
- Resin chemistry, ratios, pot life, and temperature control
- Lime and marble chemistry, and why it behaves differently
- Seal coats, sand primers, and bond strength
- Mesh embedding and crack bridging
- Mixing discipline and consistency you can repeat
- First base coat: loading the trowel and pass direction
Day 2 · Countertops, bar tops, and the surfaces clients stare at
The highest visibility work you'll ever sell, and where the detail separates a $1,200 counter from a $4,000 one. You'll pour and you'll trowel, including edges, undermounts, and the finish work most installers skip.
Poured finishes
- Building new tops versus coating existing
- Marble and metallic pours with liquid pigment
- Color layering, cell work, and torch technique
- Flood coats, self leveling, and bubble control
- Verticals, edges, drains, and undermount sinks
- Repairing damaged coatings, de-glossing, and polishing
Troweled finishes
- Trowel timing and temperature on horizontal work
- Edges, waterfalls, and undermount detailing
- Burnishing to a polished stone surface
- Food-safe sealer selection and application
- Exterior concrete countertops for outdoor kitchens
- Re-coating and repairing existing installs
Day 3 · Floors, walls, showers, and everything outside
The biggest square footage and the highest risk on any job. Floors are where you earn volume, wet areas and verticals are where you earn your rate. You'll run both, including full waterproofing detail on a shower.
Floors and outdoor
- Flake and mica floor systems start to finish
- Measuring, planning, and staging a floor job
- Self leveling, flatness control, large format pours
- Transitions, cove base, and edge detail
- Supertraxx outdoor coatings, polyaspartics, and urethanes
- Bonding to asphalt, traction options, custom borders
Walls and wet areas
- Non-Sag wall systems over tile, drywall, and concrete
- Vertical trowel control and burnishing walls
- Waterproof membrane and full shower detailing
- Slopes, drains, curbs, niches, and benches
- Seamless floor to wall transitions with no grout line
- Tub and sink coating, zero VOC applications
Day 4 · Premium finishes and running the business
The decorative work that commands premium pricing, then the operations side that makes it profitable. Bidding, proposals, warranty language, and how to present a range of options to a client without talking them into paralysis.
Premium finishes
- Marbling, veining, and pigment work
- Venetian style wall plaster technique
- Trowelable metallic finishes, fully polishable
- Stairs, treads, nosings, curves, and radius work
- Complex geometry, corners, and edge crispness
- Final sealers, sheen levels, and maintenance guidance
Business and marketing
- Bidding and job costing across the full catalog
- Pricing premium finishes without apologizing for it
- Proposals, sample boards, and closing in the kitchen
- Warranty language and scope protection
- Lead generation, home shows, and local marketing
- Scheduling, sequencing, and crew logistics
The whole catalog, taught the way you'll use it.
Every technique in this class is taught on our own products, so nothing you learn has to be re-translated to a different brand when you get home. Learn it here, order it at your graduate discount, go to work Monday.
Countertop & Bar Top Epoxy
Deep pour clarity with generous working time and forgiving self leveling. The full color system behind it: liquid pigments, metallic powders, and mica.
Flooring Epoxy
Flake and mica floor systems for garages, basements, shops, and commercial space. Proven on real commercial jobs, not just residential showpieces.
Non-Sag Wall System
Vertical and overhead work over tile, drywall, and concrete. Grout line fill, decorative finishes, and wet area applications.
Tub & Sink Coating
High strength, zero VOC refinishing for tubs, sinks, and bath surrounds. A fast add-on that turns a bathroom quote into a bigger one.
Supertraxx Outdoor
Patios, pool decks, walkways, and asphalt. Polyaspartics and urethanes, traction options, expansion joints, and custom borders.
True Stone Microcement
Built on genuine marble aggregate and natural lime, not an acrylic imitation. Bonds over tile, concrete, drywall, wood, and laminate, and burnishes to real polished stone.
Plaster & Metallic Finishes
Venetian style wall plaster and trowelable metallic finishes made with real metal. The high end decorative work that earns premium pricing.
Business & Marketing
Bidding, job costing, proposals, warranty language, lead generation, and the operations work that makes installs profitable, not just beautiful.

Came for the master class. It has been such an amazing class and great experience! I wish I had a second week to learn more in this trip. We will be back for more specific training. Levi and Michael are very helpful, informative and encouraging.
This is the best epoxy that I have ever worked with. Great working time and super durable. If you ever have the chance to take a workshop it's well worth it. Levi is super helpful and a really good dude. Well worth the trip!
Great class!! My first time attending the course and I just loved everything about it. I highly recommend for any level of experience. Levi is great and really knows the quality of his products.
