Amazing Casting Products Amazing Casting Resin Kit 16 oz

Used to make furniture moulds, after mixing you have to work fast pouring into the mould as I found it starts setting very quickly, I wasted a lot discovering just how quick,Does exactly what it says,

If like me you wish to colour the resin I suggest you buy resin with a longer mixing time, you literally get a couple of minutes before it hardens, I should have checked this out before I bought it. That said, it colours really well and hardens pretty quick, so overall a good product.

My first time casting and I was concerned when I saw it sets in just 10 minutes, but it was very easy to mix and pour in time. Just make sure you have everything ready. It’s a very strong resin and I’m really happy with the results.

It is easy to use, cures perfectly and fully opaque white. It is nice it cures in 15 minutes, but you gotta work fast! You can't make a huge batch and get multiple pours in, since it starts the curing process as soon as you mix it. But for stuff like BJD eyes it is perfect. Will buy again :)

I love this casting resin. I have a lot of quite intricate moulds and trying to work with air dry clay was difficult! The only downside is that you have probably one minute to use the mixture before it starts to harden in the cup, but the results are very good. This is my third box of casting resin, so must be good.

This product is ideal if you are looking for quick results and the detail quality is good. Not quite as good for molds with deep undercuts, and as it is white, you don't see any air bubbles until you remove the end product from the silicone. I found that air bubbles are less prevalent if the silicone molds are made of stronger & stiffer rubber.The main downside is the lack of cup time; you only have a minute or so to mix both components and pour into the mold before the resin starts to set. Best to mix in small quantities at a time as a 15gm mix set in the cup so I didn't even get a chance to pour! Although it's the chemical reaction that causes the fast set, it helps if you refrigerate both bottles for at least 15 mins before using.Once I have used up my current supply, I would buy again as I am now aware of the product's good & bad points.

This was an experiment for an art project. I was interested to see that one of the reviewers said that this sets clear. It most definitely sets white. It is fairly runny while it is mixing and then as soon as there are streaks of white in it, it needs to be poured very quickly otherwise it will set in the mixing container. In terms of it setting, If you carefully measure 1:1 it reliably starts to go off at 5 minutes and is not really useable within a minute of this (I was in a room at around 20 degrees C). When it sets, it stays rubbery for at least an hour (I believe you can bake it to make it harden). I tried adding acrylic paint which reacted at the setting point very briskly to form a frothy mixture so it set like a sponge (interesting, but not what I was looking for!). I also tried adding simple craft paint which reacted even more briskly (fizzing!). I actually need a clear resin with a more gentle setting point so that I can add colour for a glassy finish. I gave this 3 rather than 4 starts because when it fizzed it smelt pretty toxic (there are warnings about using this in enclosed spaces in the pack).

I use this resin to make decor for the nightstand, it is easy to be used.Because it sets very fast so the trick is to prepare just a small quantity and pour it into the mould as quickly as possible.
