Been working with resin for years and finally someone is gracious enough to share the finishing process. THANKS - I typed out the steps with items you need to pick up: AA 150 sandpaper 240 sandpaper C 800 grit sandpaper wet with water and dish soap P 1000 grit sandpaper wet with water and dish soap Turtle Wax Rubbing compound Turtle Wax Polishing compound
You are right to the point, no beating around the B******* bush, Iv’e looked at like 10 vids and they all did the same mistakes, no info on what they are doing or why, no description of materials for whatever reason or even show how to do the job. A video I watched before this one claimed to show how to polish resin, NOPE, legit just some guy talking about his rotary tool without using it. You showed everything required in stages, no cuts, how is that so difficult for those other fools, thank you so much!
I know this is an older video, I just wanted to thank you for it! So many of the sanding and polishing resin videos use power tools. I'm just a small-time crafter and this is exactly what I needed, so thank you!!
I saw another video on resin that had a very short polishing part, where they showed four separate numbers down in the corner, but didn't explain what they were for, and it was sped up. This is the FIRST video that lets me understand what the numbers were - it was the grit of the sandpaper. This is the first video I've found that clearly shows what to do and what products you use. Newbie here, so thank you so much for your help and clear instructions without ever saying anything.
OMG THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the issue I needed solved. thank you so much. They seem to keep getting tiny little fuzz particles in some of my resin coasters and I was trying to find a way to sand it down just a little bit and then polish it without having to add a whole another coat of epoxy. THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you so much for showing the entire process, albeit sped up. I bought a different plastic polish to fish some resin pieces that have imperfect surfaces and it didn’t seem to do diddly squat even with proper sanding. I’m going to try the turtle wax ones now!
Could you let me know how long you sand for or what you are looking for before you stop at each stage? Thanks for the video, I’m thinking a timer might be a useful addition. Please let me know. 👍
Is it this specific brand of rubbing/polishing that works well with epoxy resin or can you use most kinds of rubbing/polishing compounds? Very new to this!
I'm making something for my wife out of epoxy resin, and I was wondering how long do you sand with one grit before moving on to the next grit? Also, would it be alright to start with 320 grit? Thank you!
You will know by each grit by seeing a consistant and distinctive sheen after using each grit. Remember its autobody paper so lets say 600 grit will be 600 stones per inch akd 800grit will be 800 stones per inch and so on.
You can start with any grit just make sure you don't take too much off. Nice up with wet and dry sandpaper up to 1000grit and over. I like to go up to 3000grit and over.
Can this be done with any brand of epoxy resin? I'm gonna start a project with East Coast resin as it's the cheapest I can find in a gallon for my lamps I'll be making. Thanks for showing the actual polishing products you use!
If you want to turn a rough piece to a smooth clear piece you gotta sand. I have seen a youtube thumbnail that shows someone waving a magic wand but I think it's just clickbait. Did you have an alternative method? Better yet, just go pay someone to do it and stop looking at DIY clips. You look tired already.
Since the video is sped up a bit, I was curious as to how long you will sand each side for? Any specific length of time? Also, I'm curious about why you jumped from 240 up to 800. I always heard Polishing needed a Gradual Increase.
It’s all about the time you are willing to use and what you have at hand. Jumping steps only means you have to work twice as much with the next sandpaper.
Hi I'm having this problem when I demoed the inner part is dual can I spray the mold with something shiny or spray the whole thing with an acrylic spray
@@dripzzfromabove6823 I don’t know what this guy did for this resin to be so cloudy, but my resin is epoxy and it comes out very very clear. Resin is very fun to work with :)

So we just can't use turtle wax only..we have to go through the process?

Super jolie le produit s appelle comment
It didn't work for me kind of disappointed
There's full description on this video
@@HFDay-qi6yc you can always try to brush a verry thin coat of the same epoxy on it
My arthritic finger hurt just watching them hands. Good job.
'Their' hands
Lol

SAME.
Just a warning that it’s a good idea to dip your resin item in water while sanding because the dust isn’t good to breathe in!
Thats why I where a repitory breather its just sare I do the same when I work with rewind 3d printing
Thanks for the tip!

Thank you... one of the best and clearest videos on the topic... no bs, no babble, no ‘you have to have this powertool’ nonsense. Cheers!
I've never seen that before, it looks like glass. Thank you for sharing this amazing result!!!!!
First video I have found that actually helped me figure out how to sand and polish my pieces. Thank you!

Very Good. I always seen when they hurry or yack too much. I just love how you have done it. Thank You
I use a buff on perspex as is melts the surface slightly but metal polish is really good too!
Akhirnya nemu juga tutorial yang ngga pake mesin, thx video nya bang, sangat bermanfaat.
siapp
You have the patient of Job, I don't and never will.
I guess now it’s time for you to take a nap. Thanks for sharing. Good info
🙏🙏👍👍👍

Nice! Thank you for sharing!
Rapaz, isso dá trabalho, mas o resultado é muito bom. Parabéns.
Good on you man! That is a lot of work!
Gracias!! 😊 Saludos desde Monterrey Nuevo León México!..🤗
Hola
yay finally a solution to have true clear resin
Thanks. It is a very helpful video for beginners like me
Gracias muy bonito te queda👍
Can you also use this process with bigger resin products like for lamp resin when you don't have the machine?
Thank you for sharing such a simple guide in polishing resin into like a glass you are truly helpful and wonderful ^^
U are welcome
Esto podría resultar para el visor de un casco?
Pregunto porque parece ser el mismo material
Buen video!
Amazing job 💞 thanks for the advices
Awesome! Thanks for the video!
Really Amazing work. Just wondering, How do you know that now it's time to change the grit??
Is there a particular type of cloth you are using to rub the turtle wax in? or is that just simple microfiber cloth?
I don’t know much but is it necessary to use different kinds of sandpaper? or is that optional. Also what kind of polish to I use ?
capek juga bikin bening, tapi yang penting hasilnya dapet. thanks 👍
will it be crystal clear at the end? like when the resin dries and its as clear as that?
Me puso hasta la madre tu pranganez, eso de utilizar pedaceria de hojas de lija...
Whoa tons of steps
Thank you! Couldn't figure out which polish to get!
Super useful thanks a-lot. This solved my issue with foggy lenses on my Binoculars…
Thanks for this informative video..But have you used sand paper for rubbing?
Thanks for making the video 👍
Will this work on Epoxy resin?
Is it this specific brand of rubbing/polishing that works well with epoxy resin or can you use most kinds of rubbing/polishing compounds? Very new to this!
u can used other brand
I have all the grits and the rubbing compound except for the last polishing compound, will it still be clear or shiny if I don't use the last one?
Could you use this method to polish a scratched plastic crystal on a swatch watch?
Wow thats awesome but definitely a process
after sanding and everything what would happen if you were to spray it with clear coat? instead of using the turtle wax and polishing compound?
Thank you so much for sharing!!
Muito bom perfeito 👍👌👏👏👏
Good job thanks for sharing
liked for the intro music. I knew I would learn after also...
This is helpful but the materials you have to prepare for.

Hello, I am in Argentina and I would like to know what they put on the end of the sanding work so that it is so shiny, thank you
What grit are you using for both sand papers?
Really great useful invention
Any metal polish can be used
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Gracias! Realmente interesante!😉👍🏻
👍👍👍 Gracias.
Awesome 👏🏼
Itu d kasih air biasa pa air sabun gan ? Sama da jnis resin anti gores g bt pelapisan sangaaat tipis ?....
Thank you for pinning what you use in this process 🙏💜💜
Cuantos minutos empleas en pulir la pieza por favor? Para que te de ese brillo?. Gracias
Esta excelente el video se puede a mano por que la mayoria sube pero con maquinas.
Dá pra fazer assim com a lente dos óculos
Wow good amazing 👏
Thank you for posting this video 🎉. You have a new subscriber. Keep up the great work 🎉.
I have seen a lot of polishing videos for resin, only this one is helpful for me, availble tools and simple way thanks
🙏🙏🙏👍
Nice video
I have done very similar with Woodglut designs.
What is the name of chemical in which he is putting green liquid
do you have to do anything else to where as a pendant?
Love and appreciation from Pakistan
You can start with any grit just make sure you don't take too much off. Nice up with wet and dry sandpaper up to 1000grit and over. I like to go up to 3000grit and over.
Wonderful work! Tanks !
👌🙏👍
Can i use this resin without a pressure pot? I don't have the space for one
How long does it last?
Good clean 👌
Can u please tell me which polishing compound is best for resin jewellery art
Can this be done with any brand of epoxy resin? I'm gonna start a project with East Coast resin as it's the cheapest I can find in a gallon for my lamps I'll be making. Thanks for showing the actual polishing products you use!
This can be done with almost anything. It works with metal, plastics, paint and also printed stuff. This is a common method to get a mirror shine.
What a procedure!!!
3D printed resin or mixed and poured?
Maravilloso! Me preguntaba donde podria conseguir esos pulidores Turtle o algo similar y accesible. Saludos desde Chile
Acho que sim
That seemed like too much work. I wouldn't want to do all that for EVERY clear piece I make.
If you want to turn a rough piece to a smooth clear piece you gotta sand.
I have seen a youtube thumbnail that shows someone waving a magic wand but I think it's just clickbait.
Did you have an alternative method? Better yet, just go pay someone to do it and stop looking at DIY clips.
You look tired already.
You don't have to. Just go straight to the thousand grit do that for a few minutes and then finish with the rubbing compound and polish
Using power tools would make the job go much quicker
I making like that lods good sharing
oh! u pulled out a kind of jewelry from stuff anyone doesn’t care!! awesome!
Wonderful job. But curious to know that Why did your resin piece become so cloudy??
Since the video is sped up a bit, I was curious as to how long you will sand each side for? Any specific length of time? Also, I'm curious about why you jumped from 240 up to 800. I always heard Polishing needed a Gradual Increase.
True, and p1500 and p 2000 also exist
It’s all about the time you are willing to use and what you have at hand. Jumping steps only means you have to work twice as much with the next sandpaper.
Can you also dye resin like red?
👍 résultat parfait.
Great example of concept... for printing block crafts, still an amazing result though!
Is the soap useful??
So helpful!
Anyway, can I replace the C800 ? So difficult to find it in my country. What is your suggestion? Thank you..
Amazon
Very nice video. It looks like optic white calcite.
Amazing!
Hi I'm having this problem when I demoed the inner part is dual can I spray the mold with something shiny or spray the whole thing with an acrylic spray
i like how in the thumbnail the 'before' picture is just a sanded piece of resin
does it work for color epoxy resin?
There goes my dreams of creating things with epoxy resin
Its not all epoxy
@@dripzzfromabove6823 I don’t know what this guy did for this resin to be so cloudy, but my resin is epoxy and it comes out very very clear. Resin is very fun to work with :)
oye me gustaría saber si también se puede utulizar esta técnica para el acrílico superior de mi Auto Smart que es oscuro.
What does the P stand for in P1000 grit? Is it a specific type of abrasive paper I need? Thanks for the video!
Particle
Beli peralatannya dmn ya biasa nya? Seperti macem2 amplas nya... Apa toko bangunan tersedia?
Very useful! Thanks! :-)
could you use the turtle wax ect after using a dremol 300 sander or do you have to use your sanding technique for this result
i tried this , the wax actually dulls the shine
I usually wet sand up to 1500 grit then start polishing
