RESIN HAS CURED CLOUDY

*Resin kit contaminated with water. *Resin components are cold. Warm the bottles in a warm water bath before using.

RESIN AND/OR HARDENER HAS YELLOWED

*Resin kit is past its expiration date. *Resin kit has been improperly stored. Resin and hardener need to be stored in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and temperature swings. *Resin was opened and used, but stored with a large, open space in the top of the bottle. Exposure to air will cause resin to oxidise and turn yellow. Purchase smaller quantities of resin that you can comfortably use within half the expected shelf life.

RESIN EMBEDMENTS HAVE ‘WET STAINS’

*Seal before including in resin. Any item that can take up water needs to be sealed before using in resin.

RESIN IS CURED, BUT SURFACE IS TACKY

*Resin and hardener were not mixed thoroughly enough. Be sure to mix completely, scraping the sides of the container and stir utensil several times while mixing. *When using polyester resin, this is a normal occurrence. The surface exposed to air during curing will remain tacky, even after the resin has fully cured. Either seal the side with a sealer spray or sand off the tacky surface. *Excess humidity when casting polyurethane resins. Run a room dehumidifier during the next casting. *Using the last bit of resin stuck to the side of your mixing cup when it wasn’t mixed thoroughly. When mixing the next batch, blend for one to two minutes in a mixing cup, then transfer to a new cup to mix for another one to two minutes.

CURED RESIN HAS BUBBLES IN IT

*Be careful when mixing the resin. The best way to make sure bubbles aren’t in your final casting is to avoid creating them when mixing the resin. Carefully and deliberately stir the resin and hardener when mixing, but do not whip or whisk it. *The resin has reacted to something included in it or the inclusion released bubbles after being added to the resin. Make sure all inclusions are sealed with glue or clear tape before including in resin. *Remove bubbles before allowing the casting to cure. Draw them out with a toothpick or use a heat gun to get bubbles to the surface.

RESIN NOT CURED OR HAS NOT FULLY CURED

*Resin and hardener not mixed thoroughly. While mixing, it is important to scrape the sides of mixing cups and stirring utensils during the process. *Resin not mixed in the correct ratio of resin to hardener. Recheck instructions and measure both parts separately and accurately. *Non-compatible resin and hardener used together. Using one brand’s hardener with another brand’s resin may keep the mixture from curing. *Hardener not added to resin. In order for the resin to cure, a hardener must be added. *Not enough time given for curing. All resins have different cure times, from minutes to hours to days. *Resin is not warm enough or the room in which the resin is being mixed is not warm enough. Minimum temp should be 20C.

WHAT DOES LOW VISCOSITY MEAN IN EPOXY RESIN?

*Low Viscosity Epoxy Resin The viscosity of the resin is the thickness of the liquid and is typically measured in units called centipoise (cP). The viscosity spectrum goes from low viscosity, something like water (1 cP), to high viscosity, something more like molasses (10,000 cP).

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EPOXY AND RESIN?

*The most noticeable difference between these two compounds is their intended use. The Epoxy Coating Resin is intended for coating surface applications, while the Casting Resin is used mainly for jewellery, moulds or figurines.

*Epoxy resin is an extremely versatile synthetic resin, which consists of two components: The actual resin and the hardener. When these two components are mixed together, the material hardens within a few hours. Usually, the mixing ratio of resin and hardener is 1 to 1 or 1 to 2. *There are different casting resins for different applications. From fast curing resins to slow curing resins with extremely hard and durable surfaces, there are a variety of properties. Heat resistance and the maximum possible layer thickness are also important aspects.

MIXING GUIDELINES
Use clean, graduated cups for measuring the clear casting resin and mix by hand using a clean stir stick.

Watch for the resins to turn cloudy white, indicating the components are starting to blend. Gradually, it will turn completely transparent until you can see the bottom of the container.
Do not whip as this will result in air bubbles in the cured jewellery resin. Scrape the sides of the bucket and stick while mixing.

Pour the mix when there are no more thin, hazy lines remaining or wait until the mixing container starts to become slightly warm to the touch to reduce working time.

Slowly pour mixed clear epoxy down the side of the mould to avoid introducing additional air bubbles.

For best results, use our Precision Pour Epoxy Resin at room temperature of 25-26°C and allow curing for 18-24 hours.
