I had a small storage ottoman where the top could be flipped over and used as a TV tray. I coated the bottom of the tray with bands and then used the 2-part epoxy to cover it all in.

I would do one layer then epoxy it. Let it dry, and do another and epoxy it. I think I did three layers in all. It gave it more depth with bands appearing to float. I didn't cover the entire space with each layer, but over the course of three layers it covered it all so you could see the different layers of bands below.
Awesome, thanks for the link. Do you have any pics of that ottoman? It sounds really cool and I like the idea of multi-layers.
