Craft Resin51OZ Crystal Clear Deep Pour Epoxy Resin Kit - Food Safe & UV Resistant Best for DIY, Art, River Table, Wood, Flower, Mold Casting Resin Epoxy Kit - for Beginners & Pros

Surprisingly good epoxy resin. Clarity is good, colors mix well and are beautiful when swirled into this epoxy resin, hardens in about two days, economical, doesn't smell or have VOCs, and doesn't have bubbles - no need to pop or apply heat. I did nothing to draw out bubbles, because there weren't any. Very pleased with this epoxy resin. This was the deep pour, 2:1 ratio epoxy. I did it with several pours because I wanted to be sure that my self-constructed mold for a river table held (first time user). It was messy - wear gloves and use containers with pour spouts to minimize mess.

Best deep pour resin I have used. Almost zero bubbling, cures beautifully and accepts micas and resin colorants perfectly. I have had real success right out of the box and zero issues (cannot say the same for other brands I have tried.

Was easy to use. It was purchased to fill cracks in a bird bath to prevent from all the water leaking out. It works creat and easy to mis and apply. But a half dozen bubbled did form when setting even though only thin layers were applied at a time.

Was looking for an epoxy that was more price competitive than some of the more well known brands. After a bit of amazon research I decided to give Craft Resin a try on a few cutting boards I was making out of a piece of burled maple. I believe the manufactures recommended dry times are very conservative. Instructions say fully cured after 3 days, heck this stuff was hard as a brick after 2 days, so I popped tis out of the mold a day early. If you follow the directions as stated it works perfect, it mixes thin as deep pour epoxy should. I had no air bubbles since I had stirred it slowly by hand. Only thing I did different form instructions was stir for 15 minutes rather than the 3 to 5 in the instructions and that was only because I was adding orange die and was working that into the epoxy until I got the tint I was looking for. It has a long working time of nearly 1 hour 45 minutes. I have a few more projects coming and will be using this again. I saw some negative reviews about not curing but it had to be not following directions, I would discount those reviews. Attached photos are the final result.

I'm just getting into the resin game and have tried several different products mostly light curing, some have yielded sad results this one gives me beautiful results every time! I love the low odor and the amount of product is fantastic for price! Con is air bubbles.... having to mix the product significantly and trying to get all the air bubbles out has been a challenge and has impacted the quality of my final product, I guess I just need to be more careful. Also just be very precise in your measurements it does make a difference, otherwise it will be my go-to resin of choice.

When mixed properly, this is crystal clear is dry to the touch in 48 hour’s and cures hard as a rock in about 5 days.

Long story short, this stuff works great and is easy to set up and use!I built myself a chair mat from 5mm plywood and vinyl wood tiles. Problem was I changed my chair wheels from the plastic caster wheels to polyurethane scooter wheels. The wheels are very grippy and coupled with my weight and leverage through the chair, they began tearing through the vinyl tiles, and then through the wood.I figured I might try my hand with some epoxy to fill the gaps where the tiles broke AND fix the cracked plywood. This stuff did great! I cut out where the tiles broke and de-laminated from the wood, which is also where the wood cracked. Then covered the bottom of the cracks with some paperboard (a la pasta box, lol) and super glue. Mixed the epoxy in a glass jar per the instructions and poured until the gaps were filled and level with the rest of the vinyl tiling. The epoxy cured solid, smooth, and at height (no shrinkage or expansion). After the epoxy cured I flipped the mat over and clearly the epoxy soaked through the cracks and a bit into the wood. Now the plywood is nice and solid where the cracks were.My only complaint is there is a weird looking, almost oil sheen like, residue cast into the epoxy. I figure that's my fault for not cleaning the plywood better, or maybe it was left over soap from the glass jar I used? Even though I washed and rinsed thoroughly. Unsure, but I'm fine with it and am overall very happy with how this little repair project came out! I'm tempted to remove all the vinyl and epoxy the whole mat!

My daughter is using resin for the first time. She started with a fairly ambitious project, but she is doing a deep pour to preserve flowers from her great-grandmother’s funeral. We followed the recommendations provided for ambient temperature on the side of the box, which was about 10 degrees too cool. Google search provided the correct temperature. Upping the temperature got us much clearer resin, but there was no information provided about curing time between pours. 24 hours was too long. There was a very distinct pour line. On the second trial run, 12 hours at the right temperature was better, but the pour line is still visible. Today she’s attempting the final project & working at 5 hours between pours. I just think a more extensive guide accompanying the resin would be helpful. Also, there are bubbles. They’re pretty tiny, but they are still there, even when using a heat gun to try & remove them.Kudos to all the resin artists out there. It’s not an easy medium to work with. I doubt either one of us will attempt it again.
