Kia ora from Aotearoa (New Zealand). Thank you for making & sharing this easy to understand video. Now I don't feel as scared about giving this beautiful art a go. Not only did I write it down, but I also saved it & of course, I subscribed 🥰 I'm off to watch more, thank you again 💓
Hi Layal. We are very proud to share that ArtResin is non toxic and does not produce fumes. It is safe for home use when used as directed in a well ventilated area. For more details, have a look at our blog on safety: www.artresin.com/blogs/artresin/what-safety-precautions-should-i-take-when-using-artresin?_pos=3&_sid=30b96fbc0&_ss=r
HI Marleene, So glad you found the video helpful! There are several different types of resin available - including epoxy resin (like ArtResin) which comes in 2 parts that you mix together in equal amounts and leave to dry for 24 hours. There is also UV Resin, which is what you may have seen in videos. UV Resin is already mixed, so comes in a single bottle, and requires a UV light to cure. UV Resin is often used as a topcoat on small projects like jewellery that can fit under the UV light. It's important to use the right resin depending on what you'd like to make: for coating artwork, an epoxy resin like ArtResin will give the best results - it's also has much less of an odor and is non-toxic, no fumes, no VOCs etc compared to UV Resin. For small pieces like jewelry or charms, a lot of people find UV Resin very easy and quick. But UV Resin will be difficult for pouring into a coaster mold or for coating a piece of art. For pouring thick items, a deep pour or casting resin is best because it will have far less bubbles. Here's a blog with some more info about the different types of resin: www.artresin.com/blogs/artresin/types-of-resin-and-their-uses
Is there an All inclusive kit, not the torches or heat guns, but, silicone, with a couple tints, maybe a coaster mold, and some smaller odds and ends? I have a lot of resin materials- but- am interested in trying Art Resin- specifically..
Hi Billie, the kit we offer is the Combo Kit which includes a 32oz ArtResin kit, an Artist's Studio Torch and Accessory Kit. You can purchase all other products a-la-carte from our website. :)
Hi, great video! So I’m a beginner to resin art and I want to make key rings and lettered key rings as-well and coasters, but I don’t know what supplies I need?? And do you have everything you said on the video on ur store? Like the glitters and gold leafs. Thank you x
Hi Alita, the video goes over all of the supplies you will need to work with ArtResin. We have some of these supplies available on our website: ArtResin, Accessory Kit, ResinTints, coaster mold, Artists Torch, while items like the vinyl drop cloth, plastic measuring cups, other embellishments or specific molds you can easily source elsewhere either online or even at the dollar store. www.artresin.com
www.artresin.com can ship internationally :). Once the resin and hardener are mixed together thoroughly, it will reach its full cure in 72 hours in a warm room temperature.
I use All in one glue for doming. Will this work with art resin? I make pins and keychains with shrinky dinks and stickers. Actually how does resin treat Mod Podge gloss on stickers or even stickers by themself still on the acetate or glossy backing?
I poured an ocean scene on a lazy susan but i don’t like the final colour choices. It’s been 6 days since i poured. Can i sand and repour a different colour and would i pour a think coat of clear first. Thanks so much for your tutelage
Hi Meg, yes-you can sand and then pour a new layer over the surface of the cured resin, you do not need to apply a clear coat first. The sanding will give the new layer some tooth so that it adheres strongly.
If I cannot get a stir stick what else can I use? Also I cannot get a torch my art resin purchase was my last craft purchase since I was cut off from spending more.
Hi! We welcome you to check out our website for lots of instructional videos and blogs! Have a look at www.artresin.com and look under the "Learn" and "Blog" tabs :)
Hi great video, I just have a question I use small silicone molds and my air bubbles don't sit at the top, more so at the bottom so I don't see the bubbles until I pull the molding out of the mold. I do warm my resin and use a heat gun but one or two molds will have air bubbles at the bottom of the mold. Also if I sand it down and pour a fresh top coat of resin should I place it back in the silicone mold ?
It might be easier to just apply a thin layer of ArtResin on the surface using a gloved hand, this will restore the gloss after sanding. Some artists spray a light mist of isopropyl alcohol into their mold prior to pouring in the resin to help reduce bubbles. You can also run a small popsicle stick around the edges gently after you pour to help encourage bubbles to dislodge.
Do you guys sell that same stir stick but in a much smaller size? Would love to find one like that but we work in much smaller batches so need one that's much smaller!
To coat a non flat surface the best method is to apply ArtResin with a paintbrush or foam applicator. This allows you to apply in a thin coat and minimize drips. For a round item you may wish to coat one half at a time and let it cure in between so that you have a surface to rest it on while it is wet.
Hi, thanks for sharing the video. I'm a beginner at resin. I need to know a few things before I start resin. What is the period of resin? Does it dry up in summers? How to cure if the one part is dried? After using so much resin on the canvas, what will be the weight of the canvas after drying the resin? Thanks😊
Hi there, you are going to have a ton of fun using ArtResin :). Once you mix your resin and hardener you have approximately 45 minutes to work with it. You can use ArtResin in the summer, the ideal temperature is between 75-85F with humidity around 50%. Both the resin part and the hardener part remain liquid until they are mixed together. Once mixed the chemical reaction will begin that will turn it from liquid to a solid over the next 72 hours. If you have questions about ArtResin please feel free to contact us at support@artresin.com
@@shefalidavar6714 we always recommend using ArtResin epoxy resin, it is non toxic, does not produce fumes or VOCs and is safe for home use in a ventilated area.
Flowers can be tricky. It is very important that they are completely dry first. You might find that sealing them well before applying the resin can help retain the colour however some flowers and colours fade more than others over time.
Oh, oh, oh! I did the same. Looked around, and found, sealing the dried flowers, with spray clear sealer, did the trick. I Also, will put it through my sticker maker, and seal it that way if it's a Flattened flower... then, c fussy cut the flower, as a double sided sticker- and it holds it's color as well...
How can I get my resin that I use from your products to stop from bending I bought your products to make some resin jewelry and I don't like the results what should I do about bending?
Hi Enid. Bendy resin happens for a number of reasons, improper mixing ratio, under-mixing, too much colourant added, items are too thin, sometimes it is as simple as just giving it more time to harden up. Here is our blog that details most of the common reasons for bendy resin: www.artresin.com/blogs/artresin/how-to-prevent-bendy-resin?_pos=1&_sid=38410d02b&_ss=r. If you are still having problems, please reach out to us at support@artresin.com and we can help :)
Yes ArtResin is good for jewelry. One thing to note is that ArtResin will continue to harden over many days. The next day after you pour, the resin will still be bendable. This can be used as an advantage to some art making as you can continue to manipulate and create with the material in this state. The slower cure is intentional in the chemistry. There is a direct coronation between slower curing times and long term non yellowing. So the slower the cure, the longer the piece will last
Si votre résine est à une température plus froide, elle aura une texture plus épaisse. Lorsqu'elle est épaisse comme celle-ci, des micro-bulles sont piégées et donnent à la résine un aspect laiteux ou trouble. Pour éviter cela, nous vous recommandons d'utiliser un bain d'eau chaude pour réchauffer votre résine et votre durcisseur avant de les mélanger.
@@Artresin j’ai fait ce que vous avez dit chauffer,oui les deux résine et catalyseur deviennent clair,mais une fois que je verse dans un contenant les deux ensembles brassé cela devient trouble. Lorsque je veux verser dans un moule c’est plein de bulles et épais ? Est-ce que la résine n’est pas bonne ?
@@denisepotvin9382 Remuez lentement les deux parties et évitez de fouetter de l'air dans le mélange. Lorsque ArtResin est utilisé comme indiqué en couche mince, vous pouvez éliminer les bulles de la surface. Lorsque vous utilisez ArtResin dans un moule, nous vous recommandons de verser des couches peu profondes pas plus profondes que 1/4" pour permettre aux bulles de se libérer.
Yes you can apply tinted ArtResin overtop of glass for a beautiful effect. You can also pour tinted ArtResin onto a non stick surface, when it has cured enough to handle but is still soft enough to cut, you can cut it into different shapes. Let it continue to cure to full hardness on a flat surface. There are some ideas in this blog towards the end that may inspire: www.artresin.com/blogs/artresin/stop-wasting-your-resin?_pos=2&_sid=10ed3f6b3&_ss=r
The heat from a hair dryer is not as hot and the hair dryer produces much more wind which will just end up blowing your resin all over the place and causing a huge mess.

Is there a "sanding" tool, and it is not manual?! What's her name ? And is it good to use?
For larger pieces you can use an electric palm sander, otherwise we typically just use sand paper by hand.
