Epoxy Resin -20 OZ-4 Hours Demold, 8-10 Hours Fast Curing Epoxy Resin, Upgrade Formula, Epoxy Resin and Hardener Kit Crystal Clear for Art, Jewelry, Not Yellowing and Self Leveling Easy Mix 1:1 Resin

Ok so let's start off with the fact that these pictures don't do the pieces justice at all! I was so beyond amazed at the clear shine thru them, no bubbles at all (including microbubbles!!!) And that gloss is just amazing!!! So, firstly I read all the directions, with any new product I want to make sure I'm doing everything right! I mixed according to specifications (although I do tend to mix quickly and heavy handedly!) and virtually no bubbles after mixing even! The few microbubbles I did see rose to the top so quickly! One thing I was worried about was the work time, you'd think with a resin you can demold in 4hrs, you'd have about 10 minutes but totally not the case at all! My creativity takes me all over the place and my workspace isn't the most organized so between mixing and pouring, it took me about 20 minutes to get everything mixed in the resin that I wanted and absolutely no sign that the resin had heated up or was about to flash cure so I'm assuming I had more than the specified 30 minute work time when using this! After pouring I set a timer on my phone and put on a good show I could really get into (because I was so excited to see how the resin did, I knew if I wasn't seriously distracted I would be checking every 5 minutes lol) and the minute my timer went off I went to check my pieces!! Not only did they demold so easily, but there's no sign of them curing at too high of a temperature (you know when something flash cures, you get those waves in your piece. NOTHING IN THESE!!) I of course let them finish curing for the next 4hrs but I'm so impressed with this resin!! Definitely be recommending to friends and fellow crafters!! Absolutely amazing!!! 😍😍😍(Some pics were with flash, some without. I wanted to get a variety of types of pours, small keychain pieces and slightly larger pours but didn't want to wait to do multiple layers for a deep pour. One of my molds was painted with mica powder before pouring which makes it slightly less shiny but that's the mica, as the other piece is so incredibly shiny!)

It cures well but it is very funey and has a lot of bubbles but they disperse well.

I was worried seeing the reviews about not working and a lot of bubbles, but after using it I will never use another brand! I made a huge skull and a big pyramid in one day! I had no problems! It worked with alcohol ink and mica seamlessly! I did put it in hot water before mixing, when I began mixing there were some bubbles, but they disappeared after 4 minutes of mixing! I didn't spray them with alcohol, I only used a heat gun and long neck lighter and there were zero bubbles! The smell wasn't bad and I would highly recommend it, and will buy it again!

Works great for my project!

This is a good resin for those whom may be in a rush to demold their creation. However because it is thicker resin it is more likely to trap bubbles unless you have a degasser or pressure pot. Also I would recommend extra mixing time and scraping the sides and bottom thoroughly.
