CRAFT RESIN 51OZ 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.

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 have always used Artresin but it has become very expensive. Craft Resin is very comparable to Artresin with the exception that it is a little thinner than Artresin. So far I am very happy with Craft Resin.

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!

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.

First time using a pourable epoxy. It’s a bit messy to mix and pour (be sure to wear protective gloves) but despite that it was great. Mixing did not create a lot of bubbles and those that did appear were easily eliminated after the pour by blowing breath over the surface through a small hose. Pour was smooth and self-leveled fairly quickly. Surface was no longer sticky after about 18 hours at 72 degrees F. Based upon a small test pour I’d guess the full pour was more or less fully cured at the thickest point (1.5”) in 48 hours or so.

This product is no good it has clear lumps in it! It is impossible to get a good finish with it!
