The Epoxy Resin Store Clearcast 7000 UV Resisting Non Toxic VOC Free Jewelry Craft 2 Part Squeeze Bottle Resin Kit for Art and Decoration, 70 Ounce

I've tried several different resins for making jewelry, and I was on the hunt for a resin that was both cheap, yet fume-free for indoor use. I had been using Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast, but found that I was constantly fighting bubbles with it. Yeah, that's going in the trash now.This resin is absolutely amazing. You get a lot of resin for the money. I found that it cured a little faster than the Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast, but not by much. You'll still get the best results after at least 24 hours (though most of my projects are small and harden closer to 8 hours). The picture shown here makes the resin look red, but the resin I received was clear. Either way, it mixes crystal clear and you can mix vigorously because the bubbles just fly right out of this resin. Unless you wait to stir the resin until the resin has started to set, you will not have to worry about bubbles with this resin.The only down side I had with this resin (and it's really not a down side at all, just more of a learning curve situation) is that it's not as thick of a resin as those I'm used to working with. While this aids with getting rid of bubbles (yay!), it doesn't help when you want to add glitter or other additives to float in the resin. These will sink if you don't let them sit long enough in the resin and re-stir them before pouring (and how long you have to wait really depends on the temperature of the room...this resin seems far more sensitive to the temperature than other resins). The looseness of the resin also affects doming, so if you want to use it for doming you have to wait a little bit for it to thicken.In all, I love this resin and I've used every bit of it. I'm about to buy the gallon size next.

This resin was easy to use, it is a 1:1 mixing ratio, it has very little bubbles when mixing, it is Crystal clear once cured. Holds color well, this is a sample piece I made using clearcast 7000 resin. Very reasonable price.

This resin is not quite "clear", meaning that I see a slight amber color to the resin. You can see through It, as in it is transparent and like glass when it cures, but it has a slight color.I like this better than other leading brands because it is not so honey thick. It can be thinned with a heat gun and worked with like it is water. It has an extended pour time once mixed as compared to popular brands.I have used 4 different products, Amazing being one of them, and this is my go to for making large and small pieces.

I decided to give this resin a try as I always like to have a few options for me to buy for my projects that are budget friendly and was pleasantly surprised it worked out great for me.Now it still stinks like most resins but isn't over powering to me.So it's been working well with my dice, jewelry, coaster pours and much more.Pros:- The price is great for 64oz of resin.- It mixes well and easily. And is easy to measure as its a 1:1 ratio- Mixes well with alcohol ink(small amounts), pigment powder, and liquid pigment.- It's thin. Which is nice if you really need your resin to sink into the tight parts with just a bit of help with a toothpick.Also with it thin it can make alcohol petri dish projects really bloom out more than thicker resins. Now this can be a con for people that want a more controlled pattern.- Decent pot life. About 25 to 45 minutes as long as it hasn't been heated before hand in warm water(the bottles) and weather isn't too warm. Also if you're not mixing a huge amount all at once. if you are, cut the pot life down by a lot since resin in larger batches cures quickly, so split it into small batches or cups.- When cured it's nice and hard and it does drill and sand well. Have had to do a lot of wet sanding work on my dice to clean them up.Cons:- Temperature and humidity sensitivity - If you can't keep a consistent warm temperature this resin will not cure right.- Also if the room you work in is too humid and you've mixed alcohol with the resin it's not gonna cure well either.- Also it's rather heat sensitive which you may think is a good thing but I'll cover why it isn't below.It's thin. It's a pro and a con? Weird but there are issues with it being thin.- With it being thin you can't really layer different colors like you can with thicker resin brands. Now it's a hit and miss with every pour I do but I've noticed a few patterns:- Pigments of different weights will rise or sink even if you use the same scoop measurement. So you can't so any swirling patterns and expect it to stay.- This gets exacerbated when heat is applied, say with a heat gun or you have a heater turned to it to make sure the temperature stays the same. As heat is applied to resin, it makes it runnier. Well with pigments having different weights, and how much you put into the separate mixes, the heat is gonna make them separate a lot faster.The only way I see getting around the layering issue is if you play around with waiting out one layers pot time to where it starts to congeal.Otherwise this resin is great and plan on getting some more.

I have used a Lot of different types of epoxy resin. This is the best. The bubbles work their way out without heat. It dries sheer. The edges are sharp, not jagged. It blends with alcohol ink/pigment. It also takes Glitter well. It's great for thick wall decorations or fragile ornaments. And, it dries even. The Best.

I've been working on dice for my online shop and had tried a different brand of resin. While the other brand was good for other things, it wasn't good for my project. I needed a less viscose resin. After a lot of research, I stumbled on this stuff and I am so glad I switched. It's super easy to poor for small molds, takes the mica powders beautifully, and sets with minimal bubble issues due to a lower viscosity. I also get more for my money with this brand, driving down my costs. This will definitely be my go to brand from now on.
