About Art 'N Glow Clear Casting and Coating Epoxy Resin
Overall Feedback:
89% positive
70% appreciated the accurate casting results, but 30% experienced some distortion
I can see the imperfections on the tape under my casting through the clear casting.
I advise against buying the product as it is not suitable for casting and the type of resin used makes all the difference, regardless of your experience with casting.
I noticed that all three castings had varying results, with some pieces being rock solid and others being soft and bendy.

If you try to do a larger cast with this product, there can be lots of bubbles and the temperature may become dangerously hot.
85% praised for its versatility in material compatibility
I advise ensuring that the mold is well-sealed while using it, based on my experience with the compatibility of sculpture-molding-casting products.
I have used the resin with alcohol ink, glitter, dyed and dry pigments and it has never given me any issues.
85% praised for its long-lasting durability
After over a year of heavy use, I can confirm that there is no damage besides some small scratches, indicating that the product is very tough and durable.
83% found it easy to release the mold
Air bubbles rise and release fairly easily on their own. I also use a heat gun a couple of times in the first hour after pouring to help them along if needed.
I love this product because it easily releases bubbles, cutting down the time I spend babysitting my pieces and using toothpicks to encourage bubbles to the surface.
The resin dries beautifully clear and separates easily from silicone molds without any release agent.
While using the product, I noticed no noxious smells, making it easy to work with.
73% appreciated the quick molding process, but 27% experienced some delays
I was able to demold a batch in about 10 hours, which is much faster than the 24 hours mentioned in the bottle.
It took me 2 attempts to get the mix process correct for very solid casts.
86% appreciated the smooth surface finish, but 14% experienced some imperfections
I noticed that the product sets up with a very glossy finish.
OR
The product sets up with a very glossy finish.
After 10 days of curing, the surface of my item bubbled and peeled off like a sticker, resulting in a project failure.
After using 2000 grit sandpaper, it is difficult to achieve the original clarity of the product due to its frosted look.
I have noticed that the product feels tacky even when fully dry, unlike other resins I have used.
82% liked its verstality for various applications, while 18% found it limited to specific uses
I have been experimenting with using this product for embellishing wood sculpture and have achieved some amazing results.
I use this resin with alcohol ink, glitter, dyed and dry pigments without any issues. It's perfect for layering colors while sculpting surfboards into art, providing me with deep layers of realistic 3D art.
The resin is not suitable for doming and it is not a doming resin.
