Finally a video I've been looking for. Perfectly explained and now I know how to fix my cup perfect for customers. 🤩👍🏻

Thank you so much for this video! I am working on my first tumbler and have a ton of bumps, especially around the Chunky glitter!! I have been looking on KZread all day with no video on this, then yours finally popped up!! Now I feel a little better about sanding it!!

I'm so happy you've made this video. I'm new to tumblers and I've been trying to figure out how to get rid of the lumps and bumps.

Thank you! Your video and vocal delivery is very clear. I now know exactly what I need to do.

Thank you thank you!! 🎉 First video out of hundreds that has really addressed the issue.

i am just starting out and had not seen this video yet. I have a tumbler with lumpy gllitter and a few bumps on the smooth areas. Sanding them is exactly what I did. The other problem was a small space that did not get covered with glitter. I sanded around it, applied modpodge, and added the glitter. It is drying now and when it is dried I'll put on the next coat of expoy. After all that I found your video and felt a whole lot better about the sanding, not sure yet about the glitter. Thank you so much!!

Thank you for this video. It was incredibly helpful and gave me a bit more confidence in trying to learn this craft.

This video was VERY helpful and answered every question I was looking for the answer to. Thank you 🙌

That tumbler reminds me of the tootsie roll commercials from when I was young! I love those commercials! Beautiful cup, thank you for sharing.

I'm so glad I've found this video, I've been looking as well. It's so frustrating to put the final coats and you have bumps and lumps

I’m just starting to make cups and I have to say I felt frustrated a few minutes ago because I made a glitter tumbler and after my second coat of Epoxy I felt the bumps. I didn’t know what I was doing wrong, but this video gave me some great advice that I will take into practice tomorrow, and hoping I can fix my cup. 😊 Thank you so much!💜

Thank you so much for this video. I was about to give up making tumblers because the bumps from epoxy were getting worse with every cup. I did what you showed us in this video and it looks great now.

Where do you pick up your sandpaper? And what grit do you use?

Thank you for this video. You are the only person who said you need to use a finish on the cup before you apply expoxy. But I am still having a problem. I took a stainless steel cup and lightly sanded it and then washed it off and dried it. Did not touch the cup again without having a new pair of gloves on. then I put a spray coat of Rustoleum enamel paint on the cup, then let it dry, Wiped it again and put it on my cup turner using my gloves, then did an acrylic paint pour over the cup. I let it sit until all the paint was dry, then sprayed a coat of Rustoleum clear over it and let that dry. Mixed my expoxy for 4-5 mins. using a timer. Once the cup was dry I applied the expoxy with my hand and it was so pretty and smooth. I also torched it. But within 5 mins. or so the fisheyes start popping up. I am so tired of this and I don't know why it keeps happening. Can you help me? Send me an email.

Andrea Zavala yes that would be correct... any pin holes or divets/fisheyes - I apply another coat of epoxy.. washing the area (alcohol wipe) or a very light sand will ensure adherence if the fisheye is due to something on the surface (contaminants/ fingerprint)

I’m doing my very first tumbler ever, and I was getting discouraged because whenever I would sand my cup it would scratch the epoxy even though I was sanding lightly. Nobody else’s video explains that it’s Normal when sanding.

I keep getting the rings of epoxy on tapered cups! They are level. I have checked and checked. Not sure why! Is it the taper causing it??

I did epoxy own a skinny tumbler which I believe is plastic and for some reason I got what looks like little spider web cracks all through it but I cant find a video on why this occurred or how to fix it, do you have any suggestions for that?

I’m having issues with cups that have a curve in them.. The top and bottom of resin on the cup goes towards the middle.

Thank you so much again for ur help! I have another question for u tho lol. If you make a glitter cup with chunky glitter on it and a lot of it keeps falling off can you apply mod Podge or something before putting epoxy on it to make sure it stays in place or just epoxy and see? Thanks again!!!

Yes you can use mod podge or there is a glitter spray adhesive in a can that can be sprayed over the cup prior to epoxy... or the multiple layers of epoxy... all of these methods work... just make sure your mod podge is really dry before the epoxy layer

Thank u so much for this video! I'm brand new to all this! And I'm so disappointed, I had a beautiful cup and the epoxy was uneven towards the bottom. For some reason my cups (I use the 30oz from Walmart) do not want to stay on the ball and stay level. They start out level and then eventually move the long it's on the turner. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong but it's disappointing 😔

I know I’m late but what causes lumps and bumps besides the decals?

I have a tumbler that is beautiful except the epoxy didn't stick everywhere and there are places where you can see the "raw" cup where it didn't take. I prepped my cup by using alcohol and made sure that the epoxy was totally covering the cup. While it was turning, I saw this was happening and tried to add more epoxy to the "holes" and it just didn't work. I would appreciate any help with how to avoid this again and would love to see a video on this. Thank you for your time and for sharing your knowledge.

Thankfully I did sand after the first coat & wiped down with alcohol then did a 2nd coat. Then found this video 😆. I was just gonna throw it away but I decided to wait it through to see what happens after the 2nd coat. If I still have bumps, can I send again and do a 3rd layer of epoxy?

"Level" on the top side or the bottom side? If it's level on top, it's slanted on the bottom, causing epoxy to run towards the base of the tumbler. Also, you showed us the tumbler with the epoxy lump on the base due to uneven tumbler on spinner, but you didn't mention how to correct it once that dry.

Not sure if your wood grain is the vinyl or if you have done a wood grain from alcohol ink.. I put a light coat of epoxy over my alcohol ink woodgrain, let cure.. then apply any vinyl, then final coat of epoxy.. if it is an entire cup covered in vinyl.. it could be that the vinyl isn’t adhering smoothly all around the cup.. and ensuring that the cup is level to the table is crucial... I have found full vinyl on cups to be very temperamental

Amanda Laino... sanding is the best option... heating cured epoxy doesn’t work... will affect adhesion to the cup and will not give results you are wanting

I have the opposite problem. Fisheyes in resined, alcohol ink tumblers. I’m prepping correctly- washing them well, then spraying with 91% alcohol and then spray painting with a flat or primer, allowing 24-48 hours to dry, then applying epoxy etc. How do I get the resin to stick on a second coat in those holes without sanding?

@whatifnc5617

I have gotten fisheyes when I try to put in too thin of a coat of epoxy... it can also be from a fingerprint or contamination on the tumbler after you have completed the alcohol ink... I try to not touch the cup directly after finishing... use the turner handle or wear gloves... So to fill in those areas... you can just apply a drop of epoxy into the void/fisheye.. allowing it to stick to the epoxy around it... after it cures - then sand lightly and apply a coat over the entire tumbler... If you catch it while still curing the first time... put a small drop into the void then... I look for these types of imperfections after turning an hour or so... best of luck!

How are you applying the epoxy? Just making sure you are not using a brush of some kind that might produce lint 3). How long are you leaving it untouched before removing from turner? Make sure your epoxy is cured (not tacky in anyway). I have picked up lint or fingerprints by removing too soon.... for my setup and epoxy I leave at least 10 hours (overnight). Hope this helps!
