Art & Craft Resin Epoxy Resin.

With the clear, professional resin and the corresponding hardener Art & Craft Resin with medium viscosity, you can create beautiful works with a crystal clear, glass-like and completely flawless surface without bubbles or other imperfections.

Loved by crafters, our clear resin has a self-leveling formula that cures to a high gloss finish in just 24 hours, with no polishing required.

Once our crystal-clear casting resin has hardened, it is scratch- and waterproof as well as heat-resistant up to 80° C and retains its color and transparency.

Our UV-resistant formula protects against yellowing and light exposure and guarantees a lasting, crystal-clear appearance.

Our resin is recommended by professionals and hobbyists, with a mixing ratio of 1:1 in volume, our epoxy resin set is easy to use and even suitable for beginners and hobbyists.

It is very durable and is therefore popular for jewelry, mugs, bar tables & table tops.

Our resin is made from non-toxic, safe and environmentally friendly ingredients and is completely odorless, non-flammable and free of VOCs and solvents - for a pleasant working environment that is safe for you and the environment, FDA approved.

We offer high-quality resin materials for excellent, long-lasting results.

With a larger quantity, the processing time and the curing time are shorter!

If you have little experience, we recommend not processing the maximum amount at once.

If you still want to do this, work at 18°C with a large diameter mixing bucket and take into account a very short processing time!

Important: The higher the room temperature (>21 °C) and the larger the amount of casting, the lower the casting height should be. Epoxy resin reacts faster, especially in summer, which can lead to undesirable results.

With large quantities, such as 30 kg, overreactions can occur despite a reduced layer height. We therefore recommend pouring in two layers or using a resin system for larger layer thicknesses. Note: Temperature, pouring volume and layer height are crucial for best results.
Make sure the surface is dense and non-porous. This can cause air bubbles in the epoxy. To do this, use a thin layer of epoxy or primer.

Always use protective gloves and goggles when handling this material. Process the resin at room temperature (18 - 25 ° C) and humidity of less than 70%. To avoid deformation of the surface, the temperature must remain constant throughout the curing process. Also avoid direct sunlight through a window and avoid drafts.

Mix the A and B components in the correct ratio (A : B = 100 : 100 by volume) and mix well. Allow enough time to mix (2 - 3 minutes) and make sure to include the corners and bottom of the mixing bowl. Optionally, pour the whole thing into a second bowl and mix again. Now add all the color effects and stir again. Allow air bubbles to escape for a minute. If necessary, help by vibrating / rattling the cup. Make sure the product does not get too hot!

The epoxy resin is now ready to use. Apply the mixture with a brush/roller or pour the mixture with a thin stream into the desired mold or prepared model.

Make sure to use a large-bottomed mixing bowl for larger quantities. Avoid a thick layer in the mixing bowl as this will heat up very quickly!

Removing air bubbles is best done with an epoxy deaerator or with a flame. Please do not use flames if you have diluted the epoxy resin with alcohol or other flammable products.

If you want to apply the resin in several layers (multi-layer work):

Wet on wet:

When pouring a second layer of liquid into a first layer of epoxy liquid, you need to make sure that the exothermic reaction is completely worn off. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy. In this case, heat.
If you want to be sure, wait until the second coat is no longer tacky but you still see a fingerprint in the epoxy.

Wet on dry:

The previous layer must be sanded and made free of dust and grease.

Winter - Epoxyhars kristalliseert?

Als u merkt dat de harscomponent wit en vlokkerig is, dan gaat het om gekristalliseerde hars.

Bij de kristallisatie van epoxyhars gaat het om een fysiek proces dat wordt veroorzaakt door externe factoren zoals kou of temperatuurschommelingen. Dit is volledig omkeerbaar en lijkt op het bevriezen van water. De belangrijkste oorzaken zijn:

Te lage temperaturen: Tijdens opslag of transport kunnen kristallen ontstaan bij temperaturen onder 15 °C.

Temperatuurschommelingen: Het ontstaan van kristallen wordt bevorderd door regelmatige wisselingen tussen warm en koud.

Hoge harszuiverheid: Epoxyhars met een hoge zuiverheid heeft meer neiging tot kristallisatie.

Lage viscositeit: Harsen met een dunne vloeistof vormen eerder kristallen.

Deze reactie treedt op bij extreem lage temperaturen en kan worden teruggedraaid door een warmwaterbad (ongeveer 60 minuten bij 50 °C).

Plaats hiervoor eenvoudig het gesloten harsvat in het warmwaterbad. Laat het daarna afkoelen tot normale kamertemperatuur.
