After much stalling and waiting for some more beer caps to add variety I finally completed my keezer lid’s beer cap bar top my filling it with clear epoxy. As you’ll see my biggest obstacle was maintaining a sealed border along the back side of the lid which has no wooden lip and a number of caps sticking over its edge. In turn, this video includes both the steps that I took to complete this project and the up and downs of doing so.

Beer Cap Bar Top Tips:

Secure all caps with super glue.

Seal edges silicon when needed (see my keezer build videos)

Do NOT let caps stick over the bar top / keezer lid / table’s edge/s (when no wooden lip is present).

Pour clear epoxy mixture (I used Parks Super Glaze: Ultra Gloss Epoxy) in the center of your “bar top” and led it spread out and begin to self level before using a wooden paint stir stick or plastic putty knife to spread it around.

Use rubbing alcohol or a lighter to pop air bubbles.

After final coat is applied wait a week for the epoxy to completely harden / set before you put beer glasses etc on top of your new beer cap bar top or table.

Follow the instructions that come with the epoxy.

Watch the above video for the materials that I use for a border and proceed with caution. I assume that my having caps stick over the edge was the main cause for the leakage that I experienced, but I could be wrong.

Use rubbing alcohol to remove epoxy from your hands and other surfaces.

I hope this full length video is useful for all those who hope to create a beer cap bar top in the future. Cheers!
