Tracey, thanks for trying this out. I can tell you JDICTION resincrete is very similar. I used nail art stickers on some jewelry pieces and coated with uv resin a year ago. I had good results and gave them to my friends' children who still have a few of them. Kids do lose things quickly 😂. But the ones that were thin broke easily.

@miniscenesgb

6 ай бұрын

Yeh Resincrete is good and is similar. Not quite so white and not quite so forgiving on the mix amounts for those of us who don't want to weigh, and maybe use it thinner or thicker for different projects, and not as strong on thin pieces as far as I have tried. I could be wrong but I just find Eco Pour easier. I usually just use Eco Pour nowadays

I can only speak for resincrete. They say that acrylic paints are quite useable, but to add extra water because they kind of soak up the water. My tip would be to mix it with the water, first, then the powder.

@miniscenesgb

6 ай бұрын

Jesmonite is cream coloured and is a 2 part mix, wheras EcoPour is pure white and just mixes with water as the catalyst has been combined in the powder, rather than in a separate liquid. Eco Pour you can also make a bit thicker or runnier with more or less water, depending on what you're using it for.

Can you break the thin ones up to make terrazzo with the colors? Like with Boowannite?
