Now, let’s get started with the process of resin wood work and create a stunning tile effect on plywood

Process

Step 1: Paint your plywood with a coat of the Prussian Blue Acrylic Paint

18x18 Inch Plywood

Apply the desired base colour

Step 2: Make sure the epoxy resin and wood paint is completely dry, with the help of the masking tape secure your stencil on the wood.

Step 3: Using a dense foam paint roller go over your stencil with the Titanium White Acrylic Paint. In between dipping your roller into fresh wood epoxy paint make sure you remove the excess each time on a plastic sheet in order to prevent the paint from bleeding through the stencil.

Step 4: Continue repeating this until your entire surface is covered with the repetitive epoxy resin and wood pattern.

Step 5: When your paint is completely dry, it’s time to make the tile effect come to life, you will need around 450 ml of epoxy paint for wood epoxy resin. After it’s cured pour it onto the resin wood, with the help of a wooden stick guide the resin to cover the surface. 24 hours later it’s ready to use!
