 things too crazy. Anyways, hi. Hello. How are you doing? I'm Erica. That's my husband, Jeff. I'd love to say it. And this is our director, Bowie Bean. Hi, Bow-Bow. Hi, Bow-Bow Bean. Very good boy. You know it. You know it. So we are in Houston prepping a countertop for resin. Yay, Bow-Bow Bow. So what we've done today that you guys haven't seen what's up Susan is we sanded down these countertops. You can see the tooth that we have scratched in. But we just wiped them down with alcohol. So you can't really hardly see them, but you can kind of see them in the reflection. And right now, Jeff is painting on a bonding primer. We've masked off everything. So JJ, with a couple layers of tape, a tarp, we need to add the next ring of tape around the sink, though, just realized, what's up you guys? So tarp tape, tarp to floor 20 or higher grit, I wouldn't go any lower. Nope. I wouldn't go any finer. What's up, TG? And so yeah, now Jeff is painting on nice coating of bonding primer, making sure to go all the way under obviously, so far so good, but going all the way under covering all of the original surface. Because bonding primer, you really want it to help you create a tooth and bond and stuff. So we're going to let this up to on the outside. Okay. So yeah, we are prepping for our countertop. We're going to do the owners of the house have given us free rein to do whatever design, whatever colors we want to do. So Susan, you really have to create a good tooth and you have to use bonding primer or else it's not going to stick to like natural stones. So obviously, the colors in the space are gold, silver, white, stainless, and turquoise. So we brought dark turquoise down. I'm considering doing a play off of this outfall ink print that they have on the wall. What is just a portrait? Some people have different visions of things, etc. So but yeah, that is what we are up to. What are you guys up to today? You're in Amsterdam. We're gonna visit there one day. Judy, I reshipped your package. Let me know if you get the one that got lost in transit. So yeah, we're gonna prep this white with bonding primer, and then use stone coat undercoat. And then we're gonna let that off gas for Oh, undercoat doesn't have to off gas for 24 hours. I think it's just a few hours with undercoat. So that's awesome. But anyways, we're gonna let all of it off gas overnight. And we're gonna start in the morning, doing the color or art layer. And then I almost wish we brought the mat so that you could do one in math. Next time. So do you guys want to see the space that we're at? Are they leaving the stone backflash? You know, I have no idea. But I hope so because after we add this resin, they're not gonna have much of a choice without ruining the resin. So they may bring us back into we're glitching. Hold on. So I hope that they decided to leave the backsplash. They may just have us come back and paint the backsplash. Golden blue, I think as well. Yes, prep is everything. Is it glitching still? This beautiful castle house. Now live here when you grow up, Bowie. It's better. Okay, good. Anyways, that is the extent of the prep that we were gonna do today. And then I'm gonna hang out over here. Big boy, you getting the water? Did you guys know that Bowie swim? Bowie, come here. Come see. Come here. Come see. I'm going to water. That's a good boy. That feel better. Alright, now I'm wet. I know the house is beautiful. The neighborhood's beautiful. Goals for sure. Oh yeah, the weather is gorgeous here. Evelyn, I'm sure it's much like yours in Florida. But yeah, I have to go help Jeff finish prepping that or else he's gonna get cranky. Bowie, what are you doing? He wants to go inside and play with the other two dogs. Tropical storm coming. Oh, there's no good. Alright, you guys, I hope you have an awesome evening. Oh, let me show you how the other countertop we did is doing. That's noodle. Turn some light on. He dried him before you guys get so worried. Okay, Bowie, Bowie. Uh yes, so this is the main house. The we did this one last time we were here and this trip we are doing the backsplash on all of these and the guest apartment kitchen. I hear Koda. So we did that and then this countertop. Hey y'all. And then these countertops. Of course, we used halo in this one. I wish it was 20k countertops. I gave him a steal if that's a going rate. I love them. I love them. I love them. Beautiful couple that let us do their beautiful home. Anyways, I hope you guys have an awesome day. Thank you for watching. Be kind to one another and we'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye
