About this item

• Coating and Deep Pour Epoxy Resin Kits: Use for river tables, live-edge slabs, casting deep resin molds, art, embedding, and filling deep voids in wood. This resin can also coat canvas and counters and fill decorative inlays.
• Crystal-Clear Epoxy Resin: Self-levels to create a high-gloss, glass-like finish on prepared wood, concrete, stone, ceramic, and metal surfaces. This epoxy is great for deep-casting projects to create sculptures, figurines, jewelry, and more.
• Cast Up To 2″ Per Layer: Pour single layers of resin up to 1/2″ thick for larger castings, slabs, and river table pours and up to 2″ thick for smaller molds. For even deeper pours per layer, try Total Boat Fathom epoxy resin.
• Easy to Use and Tint: A simple 1:1 mix ratio and long working time make it easy to use; to personalize, tint mixed liquid epoxy with mica powder, alcohol ink, pigments, and other epoxy-safe colorants.
• UV-Resistant, Durable Epoxy Resin: Designed for daily use, this epoxy resin resists heat, scratches, and sunlight to maintain its clarity and beauty. Waterproof resin cures without shrinkage, cracking, or yellowing.
• 1 Gallon Resin, 1 Gallon Hardener
• Make sure your workspace is well-ventilated and you wear gloves while working with liquid epoxy resin.
• Determine the amount of mixed epoxy you need for your project. Measure the resin and hardener in a simple 1:1 ratio (by volume) in a mixing cup.
• Slowly mix the two components together with a stirrer to minimize air bubbles forming. Stir for 3-5 minutes until clear, scraping the sides and bottom to ensure the resin and hardener are properly mixed. Pour into a second mixing cup and stir for another 2-3 minutes. If using pigments or tinting, add and stir again until blended.
• Pour the epoxy resin into your mold or on a flat surface, using a spreader to evenly distribute across the surface. For coating, your layer should be no more than 1/2" deep to prevent excessive heat and distortion while curing. For molds using 10 oz. or less, pour up to 2" max.
• Let the epoxy sit for 10 minutes, then carefully pop any air bubbles by waving a heat gun back and forth just above the surface.
• Want to build up layers? Allow the epoxy resin to cure for 4-6 hours minimum, until it is no longer tacky, then pour a new layer on top. Repeat as needed to create a high-build effect.
