UV Resin - Improved 200g Crystal Clear Ultraviolet Curing Epoxy Resin for DIY Jewelry Making, Craft Decoration - Hard UV Glue Solar Cure Sunlight Activated Resin for Casting & Coating, DIY Resin Mold

Ive used 4 or 5 different uv resins and i dont think ill bother trying any new ones. This is the first one that hasnt warped in my silicone molds. I got completely flat, geometric pieces that domt even need sanding with this stuff and i AM IN LOVE. The smell is a little like pine sap? Not awful. Mixes well, pours easy, cures like a dream.

I love this uv resin! I loved it before with the previous and still do with this updated version. This one is slightly clearer than their previous hard type in the white bottle, though I do have to say it is also a bit thinner.I did like the previous version that it was easier to make a nice "doming" effect but I will take the extra clearness over a bit more rounding any day!

I bought this resin because a lot of people said it worked really great. Let’s be honest, I’m a little new to uv resin, but I know how it’s supposed to work. This is not a resin that works well. It shrinks in your mold and warps so it does not lay flat. I was making a charm in layers and decided to make the back layer green, but I didn’t know it had warped and the green leaked into the front of my charm! Then I decided to try to make a charm with no layers so I put it in my uv lamp all at once and it turned out ok I guess, but it still wasn’t flat. This resin just didn’t work for me and I was really hoping it would. It still smells bad too.

I used this product immediately upon arrival and am extremely impressed. I found a gold mine! I have found the ONLY brand I will EVER use again!! The value for such a great product is mind blowing!The first thing I noticed was the scent was not as strong as some brands of U.V. Resin, in fact, I barely noticed any odor at all! This product is thinner than I am use to, this helps it blend with colorants more easily. It spreads and levels itself much quicker and without as much manual manipulation to get it into small 'nooks & crannies'!I used only a 12 watt LED U.V. light with a clear pendant mold! There was NO shrinkage, and MOST impressively, it cured quickly with NO stickiness. It domed effortlessly, there were no sharp edges to sand off. It was ready to use right out of the mold!I have not yet used it without color mixed in so I cannot say if it is crystal clear when used alone. I can say, I did mix it with a very small amount of Alcohol ink and another with Pearl-Ex, the clarity with both additives was remarkable and I had no issues with bubbles!Overall, again I cannot express how impressed I truly am with this product! With the many brands of U.V. Resin I have tried, this is BY FAR the BEST in terms of ease, value and absolute perfection. I highly recommend this product, even for beginners!

I purchased many bottles of this up until covid, as I lost my space to work in, and have used it a lot. I thought it was great until recently... I have found a number of my pieces that have been cured for 6-12 months now have, quite specifically, pigment bleed out from pink glitters that are solvent resistant. The pic shows bleeding from smaller star glitters here and there, throughout the piece. Another piece has a pastel pink unicorn like the silver one pictured and it slowly bled out over time and caused the entire piece to yellow and the unicorn is silver now, not pink. This is not happening under the UV light, it is happening after they are supposedly fully cured and definitely hard and tangible. And it didn’t appear to start until a few months after the pieces were created and some were sold to customers. The piece in the picture has been stored away in a cool and dark place completely shut away from any light. I will never use this resin again, as I cannot make sellable pieces with it. I wasted hundreds of dollars and lots of time making pieces that I now cannot sell if they have pink glitters in them. I will update this post as I pull out more pieces from storage, but I do not understand how this type of bleeding can happen in a piece that is already fully cured. It makes no sense. Trash, unfortunately.

I received my most recent order (i was a repeat buyer until this) and the resin was like taffy in the bottle. Wouldn’t even come out of the spout. I took the lid off and stuck a popsicle stick in and pulled out what looked like clear bubble gum. It was almost solid. Figuring it was just a bad bottle, I clicked off for a return and a replacement immediately and the replacement bottle arrived in two days. No big deal, all good and great recovery I thought.Well same thing happened. Opened the bottle, out on the spout and the resin inside was again like bubblegum. Not like it’s usual fluid liquid gel like consistency.I suspect when making this batch maybe it was exposed to UV or SOMETHING that made it almost cured inside the bottle.I set up to return this as well and not going to risk a third try this time.Went with another company.I tried to contact company but there is no where to find an email. Had to do the return process through amazon channels.

This resin was messy and difficult to get it to set. The bottle was also a lot smaller than expected. I wanted a lot of the resin just trying to get one piece set. When colored, it had to be set in extremely thin layers and took 30 seconds to a minute per layer. It took me 20 minutes to get one small piece of the project completed. I ended up giving up on the project as I did not have the time to spend on it.

I have tried two other UV resins from Amazon, and this is by far the dullest and turns more yellow upon curing compared to the other two. This is also a little thicker than the other two, which makes me wonder if I received an old batch.

Fantastic and easy to use. Cures fast under 100W UV lamp. I’m using it for various applications including: custom jewellery and repairs, sculpting, making the “wet look” on art pieces, etc... Seems to be pretty durable and doesn’t seem to scratch very easily. Very pleased with this product.

product does smell a little but seems to work ok
