Crystal Clear Epoxy Resin Kit - Food Safe, UV Resistant - 4L

This was my first time ever using Epoxy Resin and I couldn't be more happy with the results! I've had the Ikea HEMNES desk for about 2 years and used various products to try protect the wood such as mouse pads and pvc sheets. However their durability wasn't the best and always ended-up having to buy another protection after a couple of months. If any of you are familiar with this type of desk, it can become easily dirty, chipped or stained. There isn't any glossy layer on it, it's just wood with paint so not meant to stay in pristine condition when used daily. Recently I was thinking about a more durable solution while still keeping the desk neat and tidy. I thought about a glass-top but the sound of putting plates of coffee cups on it would have driven me insane with time. I watched some Youtube videos with some people using epoxy resin but it looked really complicated and seemed to require some diy knowledge, which I don't. I was still determined to find a solution and came across this product which seemed more beginner-friendly. I spent some time going through the reviews, checking the instructions for best results and decided to give it a go. * This is how it went: - I put a protective sheet all around the desk (you absolutely need one if doing this at home!!) and mixed the resin and harder together 50/50 as instructed. - I mixed them together slowly for about 5 minutes and poured it straight on the desk. I then used a foam brush which I ordered based on what people were advising in the reviews to spread it on the desk. - And then that's it, all you need to do is wait. - I checked every couple of hours and it settles very quickly. This stuff is stronger than super glue so make sure you use gloves when checking if it's hard. - The dripping eventually stops after a couple of hours. It started settling after 6-12 hours and was fully settled/rock hard after 24 hours. As you can see from the pictures the results are pretty good - I was really happy and impressed by it. I did get a couple of tiny bubbles on the surface but you need to look close to see them and I'm really not bothered by it. I didn't even try to get rid of them with an air dryer or lighter because they're so small it's really not a big deal to me. My desk is 120 cm x 40 cm so 1 bottle of 1L did the job and gave me a layer of about 2-3mm. If you're working on a bigger surface you'll definitely need more. Overall I'm super happy with this product, it's exceeded my expectations and wasn't that hard to do. It does take a bit of preparation, I had to order the sheets and brushes especially for this job but it worked out the same price as getting a glass-top except that this looks and feels better!

I purchased this 1L Craft Resin kit primarily for smaller batch work, like layering and making smaller items of jewellery. As someone who has used several other brands, I can confidently say this is a high-quality, dependable choice, especially for those who are new to resin art. Key Strengths I Appreciated: Low Viscosity (Thin Consistency): This is the standout feature. The low viscosity means it flows beautifully and is perfect for pouring thin layers, reaching into small crevices in molds, and encapsulating delicate items like flowers or glitter. It minimises bubble formation right from the start. UV Resistance: For small items like jewellery that get direct sunlight exposure, the "Excellent UV Protection" claim holds up well. My finished pieces retain their clarity and haven't shown any signs of yellowing. Food Safe Certification: This is a major selling point for anyone making resin coasters, charcuterie boards, or decorative kitchen items. It gives peace of mind knowing the finished piece is certified safe. Odourless and Safe: The fact that it is virtually odourless and marketed as low toxicity makes the working process much more pleasant, especially in a home studio. Tips for Best Results: Curing Time: As is standard, the 24-hour cure time is accurate, but I recommend giving it a full 72 hours if you are layering or making larger pieces, especially in cooler conditions. Measuring is Crucial: The 1:1 ratio is straightforward, but because of the low viscosity, be meticulous when measuring to ensure perfect curing. In summary: This Craft Resin kit is a fantastic option if you need a reliable, crystal-clear, food-safe resin for smaller pieces, detailed work, or if you are looking for a resin that is particularly easy to mix and pour with minimal bubbles.

I bought this to make 3 fabric top guitars, so far I have poured the resin on 2 of them & they both (in my opinion) look great, exactly what i wanted, super clear, doesn’t smell & I hardly needed to use my heat gun to pop the bubbles, it was my first time ever using resin & it was super easy, if i ever use resin again I’ll almost certainly be using this one again, each pour was 2mm deep & it looks like my fabric is under glass 👌

I had purchased this resin prevyon the craft resin web site and then saw it quite a bit cheaper on Amazon and Amazon do free delivery which the craft resin site doesn't so as it had both free delivery and was cheaper by more than £5 on Amazon of course I was going to purchase on here, it's a good resin which is crystal clear and low bubble mixture with a really easy 1:1 ratio, easy to add mica powders or pigment paste to colour it, sets well and also food grade friendly and low odour, a good size for the money, good quality for beginners or advanced resin artists, easy to mix, just follow the instructions, set a timer to make sure it's fully mixed and pour away, it set in a typical resin time and then it's demould time wow you've got yourself so beautiful resin art to keep or gift or possibly sell depending on your level of expertise and skills, recommend.

Ovet the moon with this product. First time using it and was worried as I would need a lot for the project I was doing. So glad I did. Project turned out amazing, did struggle a bit though to keep the bubbles in as I needed them in the project. However some did stay. I made a 1.6 scale tropical fish tank for my Barbie dollhouse. All fish were hand crafted by me. Had a blast using this resin. It was poured in layers over 5 days. Super chuffed. Thank you

Did exactly what it should, dried crystal clear with no bubbles in 24 hours and was rock solid within 72 hours, I am a 1st time user with zero experience.

Excellent resin to use - crystal clear results. Very pleased. Will buy this again

Great resin. Good size bottles. It had some extra accessories with it. Easy to use. As long as you don't mix to fast,you avoid bubbles. It gives a lovely clear finish.

Hobbymäßig arbeite ich sehr viel mit Holz und Harz. Deshalb habe ich bisher auch schon zahlreiche Projekte mit Harz umgesetzt vom ganzen Tisch bis zu kleinen Murmeln habe ich schon verschiedene Harz-Systeme verwendet. Bisher hatte ich oft das Problem, dass große Blasen im Harz bleiben oder das Harz sich nach langer Zeit gelblich verfärbt. Aufgrund des guten Preises und der versprochenen Eigenschaften, habe ich für meine aktuellen Projekte mal das Harz von Craft Resin ausprobiert. Schon mal vornweg, es ist das beste Harz was ich bisher verwendet habe. Es lässt sich einfach verarbeiten. Harz und Härter mit einer Küchenwaage je zur Hälfte mischen und anschließend vorsichtig einige Minuten gründlich verrühren. Am besten nicht zu schnell rühren um blasen zu vermeiden. Anschließend kann es verarbeitet werden. Nach 24 Stunden ist es bereits vollständig fest. Neben meinem Kopfhörer-Ständer der mit diesem Harz ausgefüllt wurde und den Ständer auch von außen schützt, habe ich das Harz auch noch für andere Projekte verwendet. Der größte Pluspunkt dabei ist, dass es wirklich glasklar ist. Man sieht es bei den Rohlingen (wird wohl noch Schmuck draus) die ich zusätzlich gemacht habe auf den Bildern. Ein großer Vorteil des Harz-Systems ist auch das es sich selbständig entlüftet. So verschwinden größere Blasen in der Regel von selber. Ganz kleine Blasen bleiben aber manchmal noch drin die dann im Harz eingeschlossen bleiben. Dies kann man jedoch vermeiden, wenn man keine hohe Gießhöhe hat. Laut dem Hersteller kann man bis zu 5 cm auf einmal Gießen. Das hat bei meinem Versuch auch super geklappt ohne das es zu warm geworden ist oder aufgekocht ist. Zusätzlich kann man dem Harz auch Pigmente beimischen um verschiedene Farbakzente zu setzten. Es lässt sich super schleifen und wenn man am Ende noch eine Schicht Harz über die geschliffenen Bereiche macht wird es auch wieder glasklar. Für kleine Projekte wie Schmuck oder kleinere Bauprojekte ist dieses Harz super geeignet und es verblüfft mich, dass es wirklich so Glasklar bleibt. Das habe ich bisher noch bei keinem meiner verwendeten Harz-System gesehen. Auf jeden Fall kann ich dieses Harz mit gutem gewissen weiterempfehlen und werde es auch noch für einige Projekte bei mir in der Werkstatt einsetzten. Preis-Leistung ist top daher gibt es von mir 5 Sterne für das Harz-System von Craft Resin.

First time using poor resin and I was impressed! I covered a live edge slab to make a countertop with and it worked wonderfully. It was easy to work with and the added accessories were a bonus. Plus, it seemed to be way more affordable than the ones I found in the big stores. After 2 heavy coats, I have half of the bottles left still for more crafting fun!

Sarà che ho capito male io che non venisse spedito dalla Unione Europea, comunque sono rimasta un po' visto che ho dovuto pagare 13€ di dogana. La prossima volta prenderò un altro fornitore.

Bom preço e qualidade
