Yes you can. I used it on the wife’s art table.

I’m sure this is well known but just documenting my progress for future me to reference.
I’m finding that feed rate has a great impact on the fuzzies. When you read all the info that says feed rate is important I guess they mean it. So faster is not always better.

Ok so the grand reveal. (the would probably look better hanging on a wall but the wife hasn’t decided which wall yet.)
I tried to grab some photos of the steps along the way.
Thanks to many of you for the advice from above, I ended up doing the following.
- Prime / Paint / Shellac
- Apply adhesive craft paper
- Carve
- Pour epoxy and squeegee
- Let it cure for 24 hours
- Remove the adhesive film.
- Let cure for 24 more hours the attach frame.
Insert a lot of frustration and testing between many of those steps, and I learned alot about what not to do next time.
Overall I’d give it a B-, but she liked it so we’re happy.

Looks really good
Looking wonderful 
Hi, can you provide a link to where or what this paper is please when you get a chance.
Sure thing, got it off Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078T4PQMV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, Oramask was what @timonjkl recommended, I went with the 50 foot roll, glad I did - I can definitely see using this method again. Should be much easier for paint on paint, vs epoxy on paint.

Very nice work and thanks for sharing. I’d like a basic question if I may, what epoxy do you use and how do you tint it black?
Makes unlocking your phone a pain though.

Hi @davem - for this particular project - since I was tying to finish it quickly I had to resort to what Amazon could get me through prime versus what I might have normally ordered.
This is what I used: https://www.amzn.com/B0843H84K5
To tint it black: https://www.amzn.com/B08F56Y13K about 10 drops for the amount I was mixing up.
This is probably what I would have ordered if I had time to wait for shipping https://www.amzn.com/B07PXGFGCS

Funny how woodworkers are the first to point out the imperfections when no one else notices/cares

They can’t, that’s why it always flakes off into your food XP
