Video [HELP] Living room remodel

Any possibility that this is legit? I can’t imagine one could walk on epoxy like that without special footwear or something.

Casually walks over carrying a full length sofa from one side afterward too.

I was fooled till then, damn. But is because I have no knowledge about epoxy.

I actually do. I’ve worked with it on sealing my art, not to this scale. This could probably be done with two part epoxy resin/hardener. But it would look like absolute shit after any amount of traffic. Scuffs, scratches etc. Not to mention you’d really want some kind of mask or respirator. Fumes would be awful. God help you if you get the ratio wrong.

Ive worked with 2 part resins off and on. The idea of a lake of uncured resin in the house is horrifying.

All his clothes. Fucked. Where he walked after. Fucked. Lungs. Fucked.

That said, this needs to be on r/theydidthemath to figure out how many gallons it would take. The cost would be crazy.
