Thank you for this informative video! I was wondering if an ultrasonic cleaner would work and you've provided a very clear explanation to all these methods!

Very comprehensive. Well done!

That was such a concise but comprehensive video! No need to try to fast forward to certain bits, it was all straight to the point and relative 😊 Plus, I've been using resin for ages and never heard of the ultrasonic method. I will definitely look into that since I actually only ever mix small amounts. Thanks!

I’ve seen some people recommend the coffee cup warmers to warm your resin prior to using it. They say it removes bubbles very well. Have you ever used one? Would it be a better alternative to the water bath since there would be no possibility of accidentally getting water in the resin. Take care and stay safe!

@LamellaCreations

3 жыл бұрын

I haven't used one, but I think it'd take a bit longer to warm it since the heat is only coming from the bottom. It could definitely work if you have smallish bottles of resin though :) I've also seen people say they place it near a heater as another alternative. If you're worried about water I'd suggest using a tallish container for it, that way the bottle can't tip over when it's getting low so there's no risk of getting water in your resin. You can mark how high to pour the water after the first time so that you know it won't go too close to the cap. Another alternative is some people place the bottles in ziplock bags before putting them in water. It all just comes down to preference in the end and what works best for your setup :)

Thank you, for scale modelling purposes I am going to deal only with low amounts of resin at a time, I did not want to invest €130 in the vacuum chamber + pump set. A typical ultrasonic cleaner should be enough as I see :) Can I also use same method for casting silicone?

@LamellaCreations

3 жыл бұрын

I haven't tried with silicone, I suspect it might be a bit thick but it could be worth experimenting with! Otherwise a good way to do silicone without a vacuum pump is to buy a slow setting one and then place it in the fridge for part of the cure time (best to keep it in a box to contain any fumes). It slows the cure down so the bubbles can rise out before it sets :)

I am curious as I am using Mica powders with resin and it can be quite difficult to spot bubbles as initially you cant see them. Would it be best to put mica powders at the base of the molds first then mix it once the resin is in the mold. Or pre mix it? As I recently used a cap/lid mold for my dice set and all the top faces are filled with bubbles. I found this video very helpful I just wanted to try and figure out where I am going wrong it was only my first time doing it but I want to see what I can improve.

@LamellaCreations

2 ай бұрын

For dice you generally need to use one of the methods that actually remove the bubbles (vacuum, ultrasonic, pressure pot). They're enclosed so the tiny bubbles rise to the top when they're curing otherwise and get stuck (even without the mica, it just makes it harder to see what's going on). Dice are definitely one of the harder things to get bubble free

@LamellaCreations

Жыл бұрын

If they're there when you're pouring the resin in you can coax them out with a toothpick or similar (just be careful not to scratch the mould). If they only appear after a while that can be from a very low quality mould and the bubbles are leeching out from the silicone. Not much you can do about the second one but use different moulds

Would it be worthwhile to try the alcohol spray trick? Actually, what I did was take a silicone baby food spoon, dip it in a container with alcohol, shake off the extra alcohol back into the cup, and then dip the very lightly coated spoon onto the top bubbles in the mold, including corners. It pops the bubbles, but also using the spoon helps you direct the alcohol a little bit better to the bubbles you really want to pop.

Hello anyone reading this question. In regards to the ultrasonic cleaner to remove bubbles, wondering if you can put your resin filled mold directly into the ultrasonic cleaner. I ask as I purchased an ultrasonic cleaner recently and although the cleaner did remove all of the bubbles (very impressive), it was already in the curing / setting stage and was not real easy to pour on my tumbler. Will have to reduce the time for future reference. Although I plan on using resin to also fill molds. I'd like to remove all bubbles for the molds due to how deep the molds can be and that will make it harder to remove the bubbles, Figured if I could remove the bubbles directly in the mold in the ultrasonic cleaner. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Artresin is a coating resin so it's best to torch after you've poured it over the artwork (as lighters/torches only work on surface bubbles). If you're wanting to use it as a casting resin you would need to use a pressure pot as it's an extremely thick resin, although warming it beforehand would help a small amount too

Hi, my wife is getting in to resin art and using the heating method after mixing her resin set almost immediately, how can she avoid this in the future?

@LamellaCreations

2 жыл бұрын

Hiya, yeah you have to be careful not to overheat it if it's a fast setting resin. I'd try heating it a little less hot (and only heating the resin, not the hardener). Another thing that can affect it is the amount being mixed and the shape of the container, because overheating can happen even without warming it before. Mixing smaller amounts will make it less likely to overheat, and using a wider container to mix in so that there's more surface area for heat to dissipate :)

Hi, it depends on what sort of resin you're using and how big the thing is that you're making. UV resin in particular is very brittle and likely to break, but epoxy can also become brittle if something goes wrong with the curing process (e.g. if you pour past the maximum depth for your resin and it overheats).

Indeed, your advice will be very precious to me, among other things to avoid the formation of bubbles in my resin, because I have never worked with resin before. I will certainly have several other questions to ask you if you allow me? One of them would be; Could you tell me at what temperature I can heat my resin before pouring it in the silicone mold I made? My second question is; Can I use a syringe to introduce the resin into my silicone mold without the risk of infiltrating air into my mold?

My alternative is to model the windshield in 3D then to print it in 3D and to use this windshield as a print to be able to realize a silicone mold in which I would pour then transparent and liquid resin.
