Aqua Cast Water Activated Casting Compound 3kg

This is my 3rd order with aqua cast and the 3kg bag goes along way with my crafts. This is a value for money product and the durability and consistency is easy to use and results are 1st class.

Just used this today and love the results. It’s best on solid decorative pieces, not those with super fine details though/thin areas. So it worked best on tealight candle holders I made. It didn’t work great on a gecko mold, his arm fell off, so would imagine this wouldn’t be great for detailed jewellery in thin molds. It’s a bit like plaster of Paris in consistency but mixes so nicely. You have to use a lot of pigment/mica powders to get any colour and then I only got a very pale colour. Will def use again. I am pretty new at epoxy resin crafts and I hate how messy it is and how long it takes to dry but then it has its advantages and it’s drawbacks as does this stuff. This was far less messy, far easier to clean up afterwards, far less toxic!

Package arrived about 30 mins ago opened it and the bag was split down the side powder everywherePromised my daughter we would do some crafts so will have to scoop out what i can - hopefully good result's when casting- ill update after tidying up!Managed to use this last night and wow so much easier than Jesmonite just use water and no more bubbles. I used acrylic ink and got a nice marble effect in candle holders and a coaster.Given 4 stars as i had to shift through the packaging foam pieces to try and salvage the powder luckily had a jesmonite tub i could put it into.Will buy again so much easier to mix and you get more time to play as it doesnt set as quick as Jesmonite

I absolutely love this Aqua Cast for making accessories! The water-activated material is easy to work with and sets quickly, letting me create sturdy, unique pieces in no time. It’s perfect for DIY projects and adds a fun, creative touch to my crafts. Highly recommend it for any accessory maker!

Really pleased with the casting compound. It was easy to use, mixed really well into a great pourable consistency, with very few air bubbles. I used various colours of pigment which mixed in really well with the compound. Compound dried in about 60 mins and turned out of moulds very easily, without breaking or cracking. I'll be ordering another bag

I have tried similar products but for value for money, consistency and customer service this one has it all going for it. I absolutely love Aqua Cast. I noticed that one of the reviewers had a problem with lumps after mixing. At the beginning that happened to me too when I used amounts of 200 - 300g but I found that using a silicone cake mixing spatula and making slicing movements in the mixture at the beginning incorporated the mixture really well, then I'd stir the mixture against the sides paying particular attention to the bottom of the mix. Eli Chem also have great customer service and I've had a reply within 24 hours. A very helpful company for those of us just beginning our eco resin journey. I would definitely recommend this product and company.

I think this is such good value, compared with similar products. The quality is not compromised, and I will probably stick with this now.

I have used Jesmonite for my creations for many years but when I tried Aqua Cast I fell in love with it in seconds. The fact that you are in charge of the mix is really important. I start off with the recommended amount and adjust the water as I need to. The finish is smooth and it is very strong. I haven't had any mishaps with it, unlike the Jesmonite and have not wasted an ounce. Thank you for creating it, I shall only use Aqua Cast now.
