Use - Stir Pouring Resin before using. Best used on a horizontal surface for best application, as Pouring Resin is self-levelling. To add colour, add a couple of drops of any Fusion Mineral Paint to tint the Resin (no more than 10% paint ratio). You want to use very little paint so that the products flows. Tap the surface to settle air any bubbles. If using Cell Enhancer, afterwards be sure to wipe those areas clean with a bit of rubbing alcohol to remove the shiny wet look.
Dry time: 8-12 hours
Re-coat time: 12-24 hours
Cure time: 21 days
TIPS - Using in a mould: Pouring resin can be used in a shallow mould. However, it is possible to add layers of resin in deeper moulds. Only do this once the first layer has had time to dry. You must allow time for the water to evaporate, which may causing shrinking.
Minimising bubbles: You can use heat to help reduce bubbles, although it is imperative to do this with care. You do not want to burn the resin. To prevent unwanted bubbles in the first place, don’t pour from too far above (which can cause bubbles to form as the resin hits the substrate), gentle mixing of colours into the Pouring Resin and then waiting for a couple hours before pouring to allow for bubbles to dissipate.
Spreading the the Pouring Resin: Is intended to be poured, brushing it on can create brush strokes and is not recommended. If you want to move the resin around, it is best to tilt the piece, but you can also use tools like a palette knife.
