Let's dive right in!
Step 1: Assemble Your Materials:
Before diving into your resin adventure, gather all the necessary materials. Grab Hakson's Ultra Clear All-Purpose Epoxy Resin, the star of the show. You'll also need a digital scale, mixing containers, stirring sticks, protective gloves, and the molds you wish to work on.
Step 2: Weigh and Mix:
Now, let's mix things up! Using your digital scale, weigh out the resin and hardener in a precise 3:1 ratio by weight. Place the measured amounts into a clean mixing container, ensuring accuracy for a successful cure. Grab your stirring stick and begin blending the resin and hardener together. Marvel at the alchemical reaction as they combine to form a harmonious concoction.
Step 3: Unleash Your Creative Spirit:
With your resin mixture ready, it's time to unleash your artistic spirit. Pour the resin onto your chosen canvas or molds, letting your imagination guide your tools. Hakson's Ultra Clear epoxy resin is self-levelling, eliminating the need for levelling tools. Watch as it effortlessly spreads and evens out, creating a smooth and seamless surface for your artwork.
Step 4: Burst Bubbles and Achieve Perfection:
During the pouring process, you may notice the formation of air bubbles. Fear not, for there are simple ways to banish them. Use a heat gun or a flame torch to gently pass over the surface, applying heat to burst the bubbles and leave a flawless finish. Alternatively, you can spray Isopropyl alcohol from a spray bottle, which helps to break the surface tension and disperse the bubbles.
Step 5: Embrace the Curing Process:
Patience is key as you enter the curing phase. Find a dust-free area to allow your masterpiece to cure. The curing time for a hard cure with Hakson's Ultra Clear epoxy resin is typically around 24 hours. However, in colder temperatures, the curing process may take longer. To ensure optimal results, we recommend maintaining an ambient temperature of around 28 degrees Celsius during the curing process. During this time, marvel at the resin's metamorphosis into a durable, glass-like surface that will preserve your artwork's brilliance.
Step 6: Share Your Stunning Creation:
Congratulations on completing your resin masterpiece! Take a step back and appreciate your artistic prowess. Capture stunning photographs to share with friends, family, and the wider online community. Let your resin art inspire others to embark on their creative journeys, spreading the joy and beauty of your unique creations.
