How do you keep the epoxy from separating from the cup after it cures. I did my first Starbucks cup and and with a lil squeeze you can see the epoxy separate.
Do you make the stickers yourself or buy them online? Why’s the best sticker paper to use! Mine smears :( how is your epoxy so smooth? Especially with a chunky glitter added. I have never tried it with the glitter added to the Apoxsee have always added it in between layers maybe I should try that. I’m very new to this
Drii Drii Drii Drii Yes I do make the stickers myself. I use matte vinyl sticker paper from J and J packaging, I buy it from amazon. My epoxy comes out smooth because I use a lot more epoxy than chunky glitter in a batch. It smoothens out as soon as I apply it to my cup.
JXX Crafting i hate text talk lol. Makes me look stupid. The Epoxy for me doesn’t stay smooth it leaves waves. But there again i have not mixed my glitter with the actual epoxy.
Drii Drii no not at all! Those are all questions that I had, and I’m sure many beginners as well. I’m not sure which epoxy you use, but when I use alumilite resin epoxy I have to even it out with my finger so it comes out smooth and even. Don’t worry you’ll get the hang of it :)
JXX Crafting I’m using the same epoxy as you. I just wonder if maybe my craft shack is too hot. I have a fan going as well as a little wall air conditioner unit in there but maybe it’s not enough I literally just started these last week LOL
Stephanie Duran it’s hard to say because I also use epoxy for charms but it lasts quite a bit. I also have started to buy larger amounts of epoxy on the Alumilite website, you get more for your money.
I’m not sure why it does that, but I sometimes have the same problem. I usually put a thicker layer of epoxy, and if it still separates I wait until it completely dries and add a second layer of epoxy. I hope this helps
Which printable vinyl do you like better? Matte or glossy?
Ana Silva I prefer the matte printable vinyl
Thank you so much for your quick reply! I’m also curious which mask do you use when working with resin epoxy?
Ana Silva No problem! I use a double filter respirator mask I bought from Homedepot.
Beautiful

Drii Drii oh okay, yes that makes sense, I have read that temperature can effect epoxy. Well I hope I was able to help you :)

About how many cups does the Epoxy kit make?
Stephanie Duran it’s hard to say because I also use epoxy for charms but it lasts quite a bit. I also have started to buy larger amounts of epoxy on the Alumilite website, you get more for your money.
Is this a regular cup or one of their reusable cups
Woody Cheirs it is the reusable cold cup

Iasslyn Garcia I bought the Mickey Starbucks logo on Etsy and I just edited the Disney castle in the middle.
Did you sand after first epoxy
Liliana Munoz no I didn’t, you don’t have to sand these cups
Hi so when I spray paint my cup the resin makes pits in it like right away why does it do this ?
I’m not sure why it does that, but I sometimes have the same problem. I usually put a thicker layer of epoxy, and if it still separates I wait until it completely dries and add a second layer of epoxy. I hope this helps
