Turn 3 colors into Simple Soapstone!

In this video, we’re showing you step-by-step how to create our Simple Soapstone recipe using Remodel Resin. This might be one of our easiest stone looks yet. With just three colorants—Black Obsidian Metallic Powder, Black True Tint, and White True Tint—you can create a dark, dimensional countertop with realistic movement and natural-looking white veining. The secret is using two different blacks. Black True Tint creates the deep, rich base, while Black Obsidian Metallic Powder adds natural stone-like movement and dimension. Then we use a small amount of White True Tint to create those signature soapstone veins. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to: • Mix and divide your resin for the Simple Soapstone recipe • Create depth by combining Black Obsidian and Black True Tint • Pour and blend the colors without overmixing • Create realistic soapstone veins with a simple popsicle-stick technique • Use heat and isopropyl alcohol to create natural reactions • Break up veins that look too perfect or man-made • Know when to STOP working the design and let the resin level One of the biggest lessons with this design is that imperfection makes it look real. Natural stone doesn’t have perfectly spaced, identical veins. Some are bold, some are pencil-thin, some disappear, and others intersect. We’ll show you how to use those variations to make your resin countertop look much closer to genuine stone. And the best part? This technique is completely approachable for beginners. Whether you're remodeling your own kitchen, learning how to make DIY resin countertops, or interested in turning countertop installation into a business, this recipe is a great example of what you can create with a simple process and the right materials. Would you change the veining? Take a look at the finished piece and tell us in the comments: would you add MORE veins, LESS veins, or keep it EXACTLY the same?
