JANCHUN Epoxy Resin Kit 32oz, Bubble Free Crystal Clear Resin | Anti-Yellowing Self Leveling Easy Mix 1:1 Coating and Casting for Art Table Tops Molds Tumblers Crafts Jewelry DIY Gifts

This was a surprisingly good product. I have worked with ALOT of epoxy both expensive and cheap. This stuff is awesome for price. I got it to cast a couple smaller pieces and it out performed some stuff I had on hand that cost double the price. Pros: - No bubbles - Smooth after curing - Easy to use a torch or heat gun to remove any imperfections - Quick curing - Dries very hard (other cheap resins can feel like rubber after curing) Cons: - MUST use a mask becuase of the high VOC - Comes with wood stir sticks that introduce bubbles Overall would recommend this to anyone looking to coat small pieces.

This resin mixes easily at a 1:1 ratio. It is very forgiving for beginners and has a long working time of around 45 minutes. It's relatively bubble free when mixed but I still recommend using a vacuum chamber if you have one for intricate projects. And it's relatively low odor too which is nice. So far it's held up well in jewelry and cast projects. And you get a decent amount for the low cost. Way cheaper than most local hobby stores have it for.

The bottle says the demold time is 4 hours, but when I demolded at four, it was extremely soft, like deforming under its own weight soft. However, demolding at 24 hours gives excellent results! Why not say to wait 24 hours? Despite the high demold time, it does have a really short work time. Be sure you have everything set to race to getting the resin in your molds once you combine the parts. After about 5 minutes, it gets so thick it's difficult to work with. By 10, you can forget it. However, once you ignore the instructions in the poorly translated booklet, this is a truly excellent resin. These dice, pressurized at 40psi, came out completely and totally clear. The short work time might cause problems if you don't have a pressure pot, though. Bubbles will get trapped as you stir like a mad man to beat the timer. If you're curious what mold I used in my example pour, it's from Druid Dice on Etsy. TL;DR, work time of 10 minutes, demold time of 24 hours pressurized, beautiful results.

Possibly it is the humidity now in PA, but this resin hasn't cured for over a week!

Easy to use. Be sure it’s a 1:1 mix that’s stirred well. A lot of good videos to view before use along with tips. Final product looked great. Seashells with sand coasters. Will definitely use again.

Love this for making jewelry. It’s easy to use the little bottles. It’s very easy to mix and use and it works well not a whole lot of bubbles so that’s a good thing.

The seller tried to get ahead of the ball and emailed me even before the product arrived, saying that it might arrive cloudy, which it did. I honestly think the seller should just simply advertise it that it will be cloudy unless the buyer heats it as they described in their email. Being such, I would not have purchased this or only would have if the price were cheaper. I did follow the seller's instructions and put the bottle in hot water, but due to my neglect, some of the epoxy spilled out in the water and so I obviously had to clean the mess in the pan as well. To the seller's credit, the hot water did clear up the epoxy. Although I don't trust just a water and soap cleanup. Even hot water and soap did not remove all the epoxy in the pan, and so I resorted to 91% isopropyl alcohol and some scrubbing, and then after that another soak on heat with soap. It is true that this epoxy does not smell much, so that is nice. -----UPDATE AFTER USING IT------ This resin cures very soft! Just a bit harder than a gummy bear. I cast some items in it to cut it in half for inspection, and the epoxy is easily dented/manipulated with finger tips and finger nails, even after baking in the oven at 170°f for 8 hours. I tested it with a Shore D hardness tester, and it tested to a 4, and the base of the tester was sinking into the hardened resin. Would NOT use this for table-tops or anything that encounters wear.

Pretty good resin for the price. I make resin dice and have tried a few different types of resin. This one was good, still hardened well and the dice turned out like I hoped, however, be aware that it has VERY low viscosity... you have to stir for FOREVER, at least 3 or 4 times as long as the other resins I've tried to get it to any kind of "thicker" consistency, and even then, it's pretty runny and thin when you pour it into the mold. It does harden and dry well, I always wait about 24 hours before demolding no matter which resin I'm using just in case, and they were always done by 24 hours usin this resin. It wasn't "crystal clear" on the one clear set I tried to make, but not opaque either. TIP FOR NEW DICE MAKERS (or other resin crafters) to eliminate/minimize BUBBLES: Heat is key. I don't have a pressure pot or a heat torch, but I've found a system that works quite well for me to minimize or completely eliminate air bubbles. The first thing I do before even setting up to start crafting is I place both the resin bottle and the hardener bottle (both bottles, part A and B) in hot water. I personally just use the hottest water that comes out of my tap - not boiling, but still hurts to touch. Make sure when you set the bottles in the water, the water level goes all the way to the top of where the resin sits inside the bottle. You can set something heavier on top of the bottles to keep them down if they start to float. Now, while they sit there for 15-20 minutes, get everything else ready. Make sure you warm up your molds and silicone pouring cups too. The idea is to get everything at a warm temperature before casting, eliminating bubbles that come from temperature differences. I've found the easiest way for me to warm up the molds and the pouring cups is by placing them inside a ziploc bag, closing the bag tight to keep water out, and then immersing them in a bowl of hot water, the same as the resin bottles (hottest my tap has to offer, weighing them down with a glass or anything else heavier to keep them submerged). Once I've let them sit for a while in the hot water, I'll take the molds out and quickly but THOROUGHLY make sure they're super dry. If your bag was airtight they shouldn't be wet, just warm, but I still always meticulously check that there isn't a single drop of water on or inside any of the molds or pouring cups. Water droplets WILL lead to air bubbles. Then while the molds and cups are still warm I take the resin and hardner out of the warm water, follow proportion directions while pouring, and then stir using a wooden or silicone stick. Stir constantly and semi-slowly and ONLY in one direction if you can help it, making sure you're scraping the bottom and sides, for at least 5 minutes, depending on what your resin instructions say. Then let it sit for another 5-ish minutes based on your instructions. You add micah powder if you're adding color right around now and stir that in. When it starts to get thick (close to honey consistency) THAT'S the time to pour, if it gets any thicker before you pour it into your molds, it'll start to get too thick too fast while you pour. You want to pour it right before you hit honey consistency - it should be thicker than it started off, but not getting hard to stir. Pour it into your molds (pour slowly) and work quickly to fit lids on etc. Between heating your molds, making sure they're completely dry, stirring slowly and thoroughly, and following the directions for your particular resin, you should be able to eliminate all or most microbubbles!
