    You can suspend any glitter in resin, even the chunky kind. Use clear Elmers glue. One drop per ounce of resin. Turns the resin into a gel. Doesn’t affect the curing or the resin in any way.

    @Sharauni I don't know if he came up with it, lol. My great grandpa used elmers in his resin when I was a little kid in the 80s. He made miniature figurines out of clay and would suspend them in resin to create a little scene. He was an amazing sculptur and won many competitions ranging from large ice sculpting events(parking lot sized) all the way down to matchstick carving contests. He was really close friends with William Hanna, who was one of the original Tom and Jerry creators. As such, he had a huge collection of Tom and Jerry resin scenes throughout his house. Sorry for the life story. I was excited to see Dan show off the effects of glue in his video.

    One quick tip for viewers: if you are getting a vacuum degassing device for your resin, don’t go cheap. You can get cheap devices that don’t perform well or a more expensive device that achieves near perfect vacuum. If your resin has long working time, the cheap one might do, but the cheap one takes too much working time away from faster curing resins due to the longer duration it needs to stay in the lower vacuum to degass fully. A proper vacuum chamber with a proper vacuum pump with a silicone mat on the bottom is the extreme high end for full and rapid resin degassing.

    omg YES! The LEOBRO glitters are AMAZING!! I have a few of their different sets, and I was SO SO impressed with them, their holographic set is incredible too. Slightly annoying that they don't have names/colours on them, but I named mine after Disney characters that the colour reminded me of 😂 Also a big fan of the Hemway glitters, the range of colours you can get is incredible (they do a box of 54 which I really love) and the prices are very reasonable! Yes! Super glad you've shared these, they are 10/10 :D

    If you take a tiny dot of clear Elmer's glue and add to the resin, it will suspend the chunkier glitters as well. Not with UV though.

    Let the air out? That is a vacuum chamber, is it not? If it is a pressure pot I've never seen one that small. Interesting experiment. 👍

    Yes, it is a vacuum degasser as can be seen when he activates it and it starts showing negative pressure on the digital readout. He should have said, “let the air in” instead but he’s doing a video about resin, not engineering, and when letting the air in, the sound it makes sounds exactly like air escaping so it’s a perfectly natural and excusable error.

    OMG! I have been wondering what else to use to clean my cups and such that I use after doing a resin pour, because baby wipes (non-scented or no fragrance) is getting more expensive and not doing the job as they used to do with 1 wipe, it's now taking 3 or 4 wipes. Am going out to get Big Wipes now, because YES PLEASE! After we move, I will be delving into doing tables and larger resin projects and that's going to be way too expensive in the end for clean up, but with this, it's going to help immensely! Thank you so much for this video, and I think my glitter addiction is going to jump up again, must have more glitter! It's what makes the world go around, right? *laughs* ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤

    Nice! Another way to suspend glitter, Daniel Cooper came up with this I think, is to use a drop of clear Elmer's clue per ounce of resin. It thickens up the resin and prevents sinking and doesn't do anything weird to the resin curing, maryb4796 mentioned this too in the comments here. Also, using a spritz of alcohol in molds helps to prevent bubbles forming, just fyi!
