JDiction UV Resin, Upgrade 300g High Viscosity Hard UV Resin with Crystal Clear Resins Kit for Doming, Sealing, Coating, and Casting

Better than Bondic because:Much stronger than bondic.It dries clear. Bondic is like an amber crappy color.This creates a much stronger, harder to break seal.It's cheaperIt comes with WAY MORE resin. Like WAYYYYY moreif you've used bondic you know what a pain their applicators can be. Bondic applicators gets difficult to apply as they start to empty. But the precise tip is needed sometimes)So i even filled up my empty-ish bondic applicators. (I mixed the two because who cares? I sure don't but if there's any issues, I'll come back and update this... actually i probably won't. I have no doubt it'll work fine. They're both uv resin)The tip of this product allows for much more coverage (be cautious of over applying. Apply a little, cure it quickly, then apply another layer, cure it, on so on) Otherwise this stuff will come pouring out.Have your UV light ready (with bondic too! Any uv resin) just have it ready. And make sure you don't accidentally shine your UV light on the applicator as you attempt to cure each layer. (I did this with bondic at least 10 times. I would apply some and aim the uv light, then attempt to apply again before i moved the light, or accidentally just held the light on the exposed tip. It sucks.)I use this for fixing things, not making jewlry.Sometimes if i have to glue something that is difficult to hold until the glue dries (just as an example, an arm on a vinyl figure.) I'll cover the surfaces (that I'm going to bond) with the glue, and then add uv resin around the edges (of course it ends up mixing with the glue but so far that has not caused an issue)This way i can cure the resin and set the item down as the glue cures. (I'm impatient and there's nothing worse than trying to hold two tiny surfaces together that keeps slipping. It's maddening)This method makes works every time so far. It's awesomeThen you can peel or pick at any resin that globbed up from the surfaces if needed without disturbing the glue bond (hopefully. Be careful)I'm very pleasantly surprised with this product. It'sinteresting that bondic used an inferior, weaker bonding resin, with an ugly color, and a crappy applicator... the creator said he had the idea because he's a dentist and uses uv resin for teeth. 🙄 uv resin has been around for years and I'm pretty sure he wasn't the first person to use it to fix somethingTHIS IS NOT A GLUE. YOU CANNOT GLUE WITH THIS.THIS. IS. NOT. A. GLUE... for crying out loud people.And if you need to bridge a gap between the two surfaces, make a quick tiny "string" from one side to the other, cure it fast before the "string" collapses then add another "string". Cure and then you should have a foundation you can use to hold up more resin. Just build up tiny layers. And extend the uv resin further past the two surfaces. The bond works better with more surface to grab.If you use this as a glue, then you deserve what will happen. Simply use this to hold the surfaces that have glue. It's that simpleNo need for pictures. It's a resin.

I use this with sunshine and it cures at an amazingly quick speed. The smell is not bad and it is pretty easy to controls where it goes. It is just as advertised!

It was easy to use for my uv molds and it mixes with colors so easy. It has less bubbles than another brand I use but it does ha e a stronger smell than the other brand. If you mix too hard it does create lots of bubbles but even then it's so much easier to get rid of them than the other brand I was using. The smell they did have in the info area so I wasn't surprised, I honestly was going off the other brand bc their smell wasn't quite as strong. It's still not bad really it is just stronger than the less quality brand I was using. Overall I am pleased with how it works and cures. Clear and the colors are great if you add any. Definitely going to get bigger ones next time.

I find JDiction's products to be hit or miss. They're either really good or really terrible. This is one of the good ones! It's very thick, so unless you hold your lighter/torch over it for too long and really heat it up, it won't flow over your item when you're doming. It cures really hard in not a very long time, which is much better than the cheaper brands (or even some that are more expensive, honestly) which never seem to cure all the way. You can use it to coat other items, or you can use it on its own to create things. Both of the items pictured here are made using only this resin.Because it's so thick, it does retain bubbles more easily. If you're adding color to your resin, it's best to let it sit for a long time after mixing in the pigment so the bubbles can come out. I either let mine sit overnight (in a cold garage) or I put it on my heating pad for a while. Both ways will get the bubbles out.I recommend this!

This resin is super simple to use. Just pop on the top and pour. I am not using a mold. I’m using the resin to seal acrylic keychains. A thin layer works fine. There are a few bubbles but you can pop them or drag them to the edges to remove them. I used a toothpick.The instructions tell you the curing times based on the method you use. I have an LED UV lamp and did 6 minutes (wattage is about 24). Probably could have done shorter time but did 6 minutes to be safe. Also allowed the product to completely cool and set for at least 10 minutes before moving it again. I experienced no tackiness but they do say that you can place the item in cold water for 10 minutes and that should solve that issue.There is a smell and they do advise of this in the instructions. But once it’s cured, no smell.Very clear!!! The vinyl under the resin is easily seen. Definitely happy with this purchase.

JDiction resin is my absolute favorite affordable resin. It dries super clear, has a great consistency, the size is good for the price and it works wonderfully. It doesn’t have a strong odor and I have bought this brand several times and will continue to do so. Other brands break me out even when wearing nitrile gloves and I haven’t had that issue with JDiction. Just so happy with their UV resins!

JDiction UV Resin is easy to use, has almost no smell, dries clear, is economical and helps me produce my basket bottoms. The brochure included in every box is easy to read and informative.My first picture shows an example of one of my creations that will be used in basket weaving. The base is finished by me, resined and ready for the creation of a lovely basket. The second picture features one of my bases, representing the state of Michigan, that has been made into a basket. I designed and created both the basket and the base.
