1 Gallon Epoxy Resin Kit – Honleek Crystal Clear, 1:1 Volume Ratio, High Gloss Finish, UV Resistant, Fast Cure, Ideal for Art, Jewelry, Crafting, Tumblers & More – Includes Resin & Hardener

This is the first time I’ve purchased, or used, epoxy resin, so I’ll try to review this product in a way that will be helpful to everyone, including experienced users.To start, the product is packaged very well. Both bottles are easy to identify, so it would be difficult to mistakingly pour from the wrong bottle. While a mistake like that wouldn’t waste much of the product, it would waste time waiting for it to harden, and realizing, after 24 hours, that it wasn’t going to harden.I am so happy that the package included instructions, and those instructions included some very helpful tips. The small booklet was concise, well thought out, and really helped me to better understand how this product works.After mixing my first batch I realized that I may have gotten a bit too aggressive with the actual mixing. It looked like a photo of carbonated water. I think my bubbles had bubbles. Thanks to the instructions, I was able to remove those bubbles quickly, and without a lot of effort. When I mixed a second batch I tried to slow down, while still being thorough, and there was a lot less bubbles, which were easy to remove. After letting both pours harden for 24 hours, and removing the hardened epoxy resin from the silicone molds, I was very happy with the results. I think it hardened and dried more quickly than 24 hours, but the instructions recommended 24 hours, so that’s what I did.All together, I’m super pleased with this product. The next time I have a project that requires this type of product, this is what I plan on buying. I really like that the end results provided a crystal clear piece, regardless of the thickness of the item I made, and the thickness of some of the things I made was as much as 4 inches. There’s a huge amount of value for the money. [...]
