One more thing-- yes, as you noted, Resincrete has to sit and cure for 2-3 days (like most 'cretes') to release some of its moisture so colors become more vibrant (and acrylic paint, as you noted, works well) and the item gets stronger. I've also had great success with painting mine, and sealing after painting.

Thanks for the info! What is your favorite sealant? I’d like to seal the ones I make for my plant cover pots. Thanks for watching! FYI, I like your name! And as sad as I was when I saw it, it did bring me comfort because I was notified of it when I was putting my dog Tator down (he was the sweetest 15.25 yr old Rottie mutt one could ask for!).

@@JOTZdesigns Oh! My little dog was TatorTot too! She was 18.5 when she passed- my little soul mate. I sooooo know how you feel. My heart goes out to you and I'm so sorry for your grief. I'm currently using Clark's Slate and Concrete Wax. ($16.95 a container) It smells faintly of orange, goes on SO smoothly and is earth friendly. I've made both candles and little flower pots out of my resincrete vessels and this sealant works very well. Strongly suggest watching Jai Catalano's review of 17 concrete sealants on his UpVibe channel. I'm going to be trying a different product (Hydrostone) because it's less expensive than Resincrete. Will let you know!

You can add a bit of extra water to make the set time longer per JD instructions. I also purchased the Resincrete pigments which work better at not offsetting the color by the white of the powder. I tried acrylic paint, mica powder and resin cream color first but got very washed out color and poor mixing. What ever you use, mix color with water prior to putting in powder. I love resincrete. ❤😊

I totally wished I had watched your video before I tried it! I measured the resincrete by weight and the water by volume, so I had a big wet mess! I misinterpreted what the instructions called for. It was relatively easy to clean up, and I'll try it again later! Thanks for your video!!!!

I purchased this ResinCrete through amazon n after watching your video I’m not too impressed with it. First of all I don’t have a scale. Not impressed with the directions either.

If you want the butterflies to be intact 1. Wait 1 day before demolding AND 2. Add bit extra resincrete on top. This will make it thicker and stronger

@@JOTZdesigns No. What you should do is put disposable 3 or 5 (?) ounce bathroom paper cups on scale. Tare at zero before you add stuff. Add proper measurement of powder to one cup and mark with marker. Remove from scale. Place 2nd cup on scale and tare at zero. Add water to second cup and mark with marker. Then measure with water using actual measuring cups to determine how many ounce in volume you get and multiply as needed. Please note: When you add bit extra resin crete to antanna of butterfly, you will not get a "clean" string. Rather, the strings will appear raised against the extra resin crete, but at least it won't break off. I do this with arms and legs of people and animals.

Thank you for the video. Very informative. Seems a bit to persnickety for me. Found the color change with the dye fascinating though. Looks to be the benefit is to get the soft finish of the resin with the structure of the cement. Wonder if the color will change over significant time as do resin products.

@JOTZdesigns

Thank you! I haven’t noticed any change in color yet. Maybe it depends on the types colors you use. I’ve had some resin items yellow quickly, and others still look like new years later, even using the same resin. Only time will tell! Thanks for watching! ☺️🧡

Hi this was helpful thank you! I'm curious how the butterflies stood up after letting them cure fully. Can you break them apart or are they strong? I'm interested in using ResinCrete for similar sized items but wouldn't want to if the material was too fragile.

Glad it helped! 🧡☺️ Thanks for watching! After a few the butterflies (and seashell) still broke, but it did take quite a bit of effort. Certainly not like the same day or even the next day. If you’re using it for things like earrings, I’d recommend sealing them (a water-based sealant would be best) to help with wear and tear.

I couldn't find the mermaid dreams you used, but if it was a resin pigment paste, it is most likely not going to work well in this product. Pigment pastes typically have part a or part b resin in them and that is why they don't work well in products like this. Resin dyes also work terribly in products like this. Those products are specifically formulated for epoxy resin. It can also interfere in curing.

The Mermaid’s Dream is a popular product, and looks to be currently sold out. She’ll have it back in stock soon, I’m sure! It is made for resin, and I read conflicting things on the use of resin pigments in this product, hence why I was testing it. I spoke with Katherine from Dryer Days, and the only difference between the Mermaid’s Dream and the Cream color, that I also tested off camera, is that the MD is more pigmented. The Cream color did as expected and didn’t mix well, and left pock marks on the backside with uncured pigment. I do not have any resin dyes to try out, but the resin tints I have didn’t work well. Resin inks worked fine. Sometimes testing is needed just to see!

Their website says you can use any of those items with their product.

I used primary elements powder pigments and they got much darker as time passed. 1 to 2 days. They got splotchy and darker on edges. Also if you wet them to wet sand the pigment changes and comes out in the water.

Eu fiz o meu jesmonite caseiro! Não cheguei a experimentar esses! O meu é bom, é brilhante como cerâmica, suave, mas só aceita cores pastéis! É feito com gesso pedra, hidrofugante, caucita, e água! Fica impermeável, o que eu adoro! O que me faz pensar ...porquê esses não contem hidrofugante? Jesmonite, resincrete, não são a prova d'água!

You have to measure by weight not volume. So it would be more like 10 ounces to 3 ounces, or 10 grams to 3grams, etc. hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
