Thanks Judit! It's challenging but doable, you'll have to find a way to either 1) let the resin thicken up and apply in thin layers while keeping the piece turning as it sets (a bit tricky), or 2) create a thinnish flat piece, then trim and apply it around your piece before the resin hardens fully. Our Amazing Tape will be a big help with this option. I hope that helps, let me know how your creations turn out :)

@LittleWindowsResin

Hello Katerina! I know what you mean, but what matters more than the depth of your bezel is the surface texture. If it's super shiny your resin is vulnerable to popping out, so I usually sand/scratch up the inside of the bezel a bit before pouring resin, to give it more grip. If it does pop out you can always glue it back in, but it's better to avoid that if possible and routinely rough up the metal before filling. Does this help? - Fran

Can u use a torch or heat gun for removing bubbles? Thanks ms. Sherry

@LittleWindowsResin

3 жыл бұрын

Hi Sherry! Please never use a torch with resin, it's just too hot and can be harmful in many ways, but you can certainly use a heat gun on a low setting. This is especially important as you work in molds as high heat can cause resin to bond to the mold material. Hope that helps :)

Do you think you can make wire frames and do this same technique? I am looking to do some hearts and tear drops as well as squares, ovals and circles.

@LittleWindowsResin

7 жыл бұрын

Hi Christi! Yes you sure can, the trick will be the part where the wire crosses over itself. The resin can easily slip under at that point, so you'll need to either ensure it's flat with a good tape seal, or let the resin thicken up more before pouring so it's not as likely to travel out of any gaps, or you can let the resin flow, let it set up, then trim it off the outside with sharp scissors. Have lots of fun, and please let me know how your creations turn out :)

I also order some of the resin before I had received the coupon on the other comment... It's ok though.

I'm new to using resin so I have a few questions. Is this resin the same as uv resin or does it set by itself and if so how long does it take to set by itself. You are not using gloves what happens if resin gets on the skin? Does it smell loud, do we need a mask. Do you need special paper and ink for the photos? Thanks

@LittleWindowsResin

2 жыл бұрын

Hello Sky One! This is not UV resin, it's an epoxy resin, which means it's 2-parts that get mixed together in whatever amount you need, then it sets up on its own and can be handled after 12 hours, which gives you plenty of time to move and add elements. This Brilliant Resin is the safest you'll find, and since I'm usually making tiny things with tiny batches, I don't wear gloves as that tends to make more of a mess as I fiddle. If I get any on my fingers I wipe with dry paper towel then wash with dish soap until it's no longer sticky. This brand does not have much smell at all, but if you are chemically sensitive you can certainly wear gloves and a vapor mask. www.little-windows.com/collections/brilliant-resin-2 I use these Special Photo Papers for Resin, which can be inkjet or laser printed. They make a permanent bond with inks, and do not need to be sealed before resining. www.little-windows.com/collections/special-papers I hope that helps :) fran@little-windows.com

@LittleWindowsResin

Hello Brigitte, thanks for your comment! I understand and appreciate your concern. I use Brilliant Resin, the safest epoxy you'll find. There is safety guidance on the bottles and in all of the maker guides, and I'm typically mixing small batches (1-2 TBSP), to make small projects, I cover them with dust covers, and have good ventilation in my space. Resins are sensitizers, meaning the more you're exposed, the more likely you may be to experience irritation. You'll need to consider situational use of both gloves and vapor masks/respirators, depending on the size of your project and your frequency of use. This is especially important if you're using a resin that contains more harmful chemicals, if you're working in a space that doesn't have good air flow, and/or if you're working on larger projects (canvases, tumblers, large castings, etc), making multiple projects simultaneously, mixing large batches, or not using dust covers. If you have chemical sensitivities, or plan to use a lot of resin, you'll certainly want protective gear. If you have any other questions email fran@little-windows.com and I'll be happy to help. Keep creating :) - Fran
