Table Top Epoxy Resin Superclear 1 Gallon | 128 oz Kit, Anti-Yellow Highest UV Impact Resistance, Food Grade Safe, Ultra Crystal Clear Gloss, Bubble Free, Bar & Surface Coat, Tumblers, Wood, DIY

Worked and cured well - watch a few project videos first, and you'll be pouring resin like a pro in no time. Very low VOC - can be used indoors without mask as a result, which is HUGE! Make sure your pouring surface and work area is at least 65 degrees F for best results... and keep a hand torch ready, as just a quick pass of the Bernzomatic open flame will remove troublesome and unsightly "bubbles" that form during the early curing phase (before the epoxy sets). Took the dyes flawlessly, I had light gray base with blue and moss green details for walls, snow white for the ceiling (it was a multi-color, multi layer, multi piece custom bath enclosure) - sorry for the blurry image. Project came out looking great, the edges sealed perfectly with silicone, custom fit shower enclosure is 100% waterproof. Beware "buggy" grades of plywood as pouring substrate: I used a construction-grade 1/2 plywood as my flat base - and though nothing of it, as a good strong substrate. But if you use plywood as a base, especially construction grade, be careful as many commercial grade plywoods can have small "bugs" living just below the surface! I was unaware of this, and when my first coat of epoxy went on, I had to spend several minutes and intervals during curing picking "bugs" (small, gnat-like critters) which migrated out from the sub-layers of the plywood. At first i though I had a hole in my window screen, but no, they were coming from inside the plywood, and migrating INTO my lovely epoxy resin! Honestly I have run into this issue before, when 1st-coat painting fresh plywood projects - so it was more of a distraction, and actually did not harm the wood, the piece, or the project. It was just annoying, picking gnats out of setting epoxy... had I used particle board or another substrate, I would not have had this issue, so "my bad" but no harm done. I will definitely purchase this epoxy again: And excellent product, handles and performs very well, easy to use and "master"... looking forward to my next epoxy project!

I have purchased this product several times and I am 100% satisfied with it. It mixes well and is crystal clear. I use it to put down layers onto table tops and to cast resin pens. The table tops pour out nice and I spread it out with a foam paint brush. I only have to get the thickness close as the resin then self-levels. Once it's spread out I use a heat gun to pop any surface bubbles. I then go away for 5 to 10 minutes. I return to use the heat gun to pop any micro-bubbles that have formed. It's hard to see them, but if you look at the surface at a steep angle while passing the heat gun over the resin you can see them pop. I am only passing the heat gun over the resin at the speed you might use a paint brush. I am not trying to heat the resin, just pop the bubbles. Then it's time to wait. 24 hours it's ready for me to apply another layer. I put things like old maps on the table so I will do 3 or 4 layers of resin. With the pens, I mix the resin and split it up into 2 or 3 small cups. I then add special dyes and glitters to each and stir well. I then let the resin sit for 10 to 15 minutes so that when I pour them into the pen mold, the different colors swirl around each other but don't mix together too much. I also tried a Chinese resin and I was not happy with how reliably it mixed. Sometimes it took several days to get fully hard. I have always had 100% success with this American made product and I can always take it out of the mold 24 hours later. I highly recommend this product.

Purchased to try on a couple of small projects before tackling countertops. Has been super easy to work with.

Decent quality dries clear but no matter what I did including following the directions there was still bubbles. Appears decent and is durable. Cure time is good and hardened well. Effective for what I needed

This works great for my pen, bottle stoppers, knife scales, bowl blanks and other blanks I make for other projects. Hardness is perfect for turning and polishing. Have not busted a blank since making them with this stuff. Excellent and better than store bought blanks. Takes dyes great.

It is very sticky, lol. But it mixes smoothly and give ample time to apply. It is very clear and produces very few bubbles if you mix as instructed.

I love the durability and quality of this product I will continue to use it on my projects.

This is the worst epoxy I've ever worked with! It's hard to work with, bubbles like crazy when mixing and than you spend the next 30 minutes or so babysitting it to constantly torch the bubbles out of it. It's thick and starts setting way to fast. Curing time is normal for this kind of resin and sure, it ends up clear - like 99% of any other epoxy resin out there. For the stress and effort this resin took there was nothing at all special about it that would make me buy it again.
