The stuff used for quarters inside the clear finish on a table is a very slow setting self-leveling 2 part epoxy. The thing is once you get to buying that much of it the cost is fairly high. I recall it being about $130 a gallon when I looked into it and that was some years ago. Who knows, though? Epoxy is more common now so maybe you can find some deals if you hunt enough.
Some 50 years ago, my wife and I got into the resin coating. Can"t remember the name of the stuff, but it looked great when we made them. Did some clocks, coffee tables, picture lay-outs, all that good stuff. Worked beautifully. Took a whole bunch of family pictures, cut them down, glued them on a fancy board and poured the resin on. We were quite proud of the finished project. A frozen moment in time that would last forever. I pulled the board out the other day to look at the old pics, and the resin has darkened to the point that it's difficult to recognize my own face. What a terrible waste. I hope the resin has improved since those early days.
I've seen a lot worse in some restaurants. You can't see those air bubbles from my house. Those who never try never make mistakes. Looks Good! Morrison would be proud.
Lot of that stuff, Varithane etc, reacts badly to repeated freezing. I keep my garage @ 37°+ just because…. (It's 9° here right now) Jimmy never looked so good… That worked better than I thought.. NICE! GOOD video.. Upped the attitude of the rear compartment…
Sherwin Williams sells the product, it's a two part mix, called "casting compound" I've used it up to about 2" thick, gets very hot while curing. Also if anything scratches, or dings it just apply heat and the surface will come right back.
SHOULD OF USED A SPONGE OR A SQUEEZE OR SOMETHING THAT YOU USE FOR BONDO AND EVEN A PANT ROLLER
The doors poster turned out just fine because it looks aged.
The product I’ve seen used is called Bar Top just pour on to surface and let it self level. Don’t shake it. Enjoy your channel
Mustie, stick (no pun intended) to repairing stuff. You ain't no paper hanger. But I give you credit 4 trying
You should try Modge pod.
You use a propane torch to get the bubbles out and to help smooth it.

A rubber J roller would be the ticket.😀
Always store paint tins upside down and the skin dries on the bottom that way when you open it its all good pva is always best to do de coupage
Lightly torching the epoxy after it's laid down but still wet helps with leveling and eliminates bubbles.

you needed a straight edge like they do with window tint to lay that down at the start
