About ArtResin - Epoxy Resin - Clear - Non-Toxic - 16 oz
Overall Feedback:
79% positive
70% appreciated the accurate casting results, but 30% experienced some distortion
I am dissatisfied with the epoxy product as it has caused me the most issues with bubbles and general curing. I have attached a video to demonstrate the issue, where I made two letters, one 24 hours ago and the other an hour ago, and the latter has hardened completely while the former looks like it was just poured.
71% praised for its versatility in material compatibility, while 29% found it only worked with specific materials
I am ordering this product because it is the only brand with a good reputation that I could get hold of in time.
I have noticed that this epoxy is not suitable for molds, but it might be better for preserving paintings.

I use this product to hold in place mixed media such as trinkets and chunky glitter.
I lost several sentimental pieces and faced stress while trying to work with the product. I had a better experience with ArtResin brand from the same batch, which makes it even more confusing. I have decided not to try the product again.
I'm having trouble with too many bubbles, even though I stirred slowly a few days ago.
67% appreciated the quick molding process, but 33% experienced some delays
I faced an issue with the molding speed of the product as both of my pieces were completely fused to their molds.
My first set of coasters took a very long time to cure.
The consistency of the resin is so thick that it makes it difficult to pour and causes more bubbles to form, which also prevents them from rising.
The product takes 5 or more days to cure or it won't cure at all.
