This was my first time working with resin and I absolutely loved this product. Even with all my novice mistakes I had a blast learning how to work with this product. Mixing mica with this resin was easy and the gradient colors were spot on. I tested different layers of drying time and I wasn't disappointed. Even this size of resin I thought it would give me just a few practice runs but it lasted longer than I thought. I would definitely purchase this item again and recommend it wholeheartedly.
Tip...wear gloves
Tip...paper towels at hand is a must
Tip...a working base will keep things tidy and protect your table
Tip...preseal your fabric, paper and pictures before covering with resin. Also pour the resin in layers giving an hour or two between layers as you place your items in it so it does not sink or float.
Tip...the bottom is less shiny but you can sand it a bit and buff it out so it is super shiny if you want.
Tip...room temperature is best for curing quality and timing.
Tip...cover with a good bet cover if you have pets to avoid fur contamination..lol...trust me on this one.
Tip...patience is a must give it time to dry without touching or moving.
Tip...use a level to make sure your design settled evenly.
Tip...measure your mold with rice so you know how much resin you need. That way you don't waste any. Working in small batches is best. It is easy and quick to redo a batch if needed.
Tip...mark the caps so you know which bottle it belongs to.
Tip...after use quickly wipe the bottle opening so it does not dry or shut tight on you.
Tip... preparing your items before you start is just smart. Think of the items and line them up as you will need them.
This product is easy to use, and loads of creative options available to you. Lots of fun. I purchased it to make funeral memorial giveaways and everyone loved the pendants.
