Pourla Artistic Epoxy Resin

Art Epoxy Resin is the go-to choice for artists and makers seeking to craft high-glossy and crystal-clear resin pieces. With a straightforward 1A:1B mix ratio, it's incredibly easy to use and blends perfectly with color pigments and dyes. Designed for a wide range of applications—including resin pours, casting, jewelry making, and surface coatings—this resin provides a high-gloss, glass-like finish with no-VOC and BPA-free.

Art epoxy resin is specifically designed for projects like resin art, jewelry, decorative items, and glossy coatings. It's all about creativity, offering a high-gloss and crystal-clear finish. Also, it is designed to be easy to work with a simple 1A:1B ratio and fully cures in 24 hours. On the contrary, traditional epoxy resin is designed for industrial and structural applications, such as flooring, sealing, laminating, and strong adhesive purposes. Its primary focus is on durability, strength, and functionality, ensuring reliable performance in industrial circumstances.

Art Epoxy Resin is suitable for projects such as making coasters, resin charms, resin keychains, resin trays, resin clocks, resin ornaments, resin jewelry, etc. If you have any questions about picking the right type of resin, feel free to contact us and we would love to help you!

Yes, art epoxy resin is compatible with silicone molds and is often one of the best materials to use with them. Silicone molds are non-stick and flexible, making them ideal for resin projects like jewelry, casting, and small decorative items. The resin cures smoothly, and the mold allows for easy demolding without damage.

It sticks nicely to glass, metals like steel and aluminum, and even some plastics like acrylic (though not flexible ones like polyethylene). It also bonds well to wood, bringing out the natural grain for tables and artwork. Epoxy resin works well for sealing paper or fabric as well as for coating ceramic tiles and concrete surfaces. It has trouble with soft plastics though and won't stick to greasy, dusty, or oily surfaces. Always clean and prepare your surface in advance for the best results and if you're not sure, start with a small area.

To get the best results, start by working in a clean, dust-free space with good ventilation and an ideal temperature (around 20-25°C). Choose the right type of resin for your project and measure it accurately using the manufacturer’s recommended ratio—this is crucial for proper curing. Mix thoroughly but gently to avoid bubbles, making sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the container, and use a heat gun or torch to remove any surface bubbles after pouring. Prepare your surface by cleaning it thoroughly and lightly sanding if necessary to improve adhesion. Pour the resin slowly, spread it evenly, and work within the pot life to ensure consistency. Let it cure undisturbed in a stable environment, protecting it from dust and temperature changes. Once cured, you can sand and polish for a smooth, glossy finish or add additional layers for depth.

While Pourla epoxy resin contains built-in UV stabilizers to resist discoloration over time, it is recommended to store your raw epoxy resin in a cool, dry, and dark place, as exposure to light, heat, and humidity can cause yellowing even before use. When working with resin, mix it in the exact ratios specified in the instructions, as improper mixing can lead to curing issues and discoloration. Avoid exposing finished projects to direct sunlight for extended periods, and be cautious with heat tools during curing, as overheating can cause yellowing.

To prevent bubbles in epoxy resin, mix the resin and hardener slowly and evenly, being careful not to stir too vigorously, as this can introduce air. Preheating the resin slightly by placing the bottles in warm water helps it flow better and reduces trapped bubbles. When pouring, do so in a thin, steady stream, and use a heat gun or torch to gently pass over the surface and pop any bubbles that rise.

At Pourla, we're committed to providing top-quality art epoxy resin that's easy to use and perfect for a wide range of projects. With excellent UV resistance and non-yellowing properties, your artwork will maintain its clarity and vibrancy over time.
