Hi I'm Wendy a resin artist and crafter.
In this video I am trying out a machine that isn't made for resin.
I had heard that some people are using it and wanted to try it out and show you what it does.
Spoiler
Be very careful if you do try this out.
This machine is not made for this purpose and therefor, there is absolutely nothing wrong with how it works.
I will not be held responsible for any misuse of this ultrasonic cleaning machine.
If you have any comments or just want to ask questions please use the comment section below and I will get back to you.
I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks for watching
Wendy

Is it my math that's not mathing, or Wendy's? Isn't 180 seconds 3 minutes? 😂😂😂
Yep 😂
LOL Your math is mathing fine. 😅 90 seconds = 1½ minutes
180 seconds = 3 minutes
I’m with you. It’s 3 minutes 😂
That's exactly what I was thinking too.
👏👏👏 Now go ask your teacher for an A
I work in a tattoo shop and use an ultrasonic to clean tubes, every day. What most people don’t know is they make liquid particles become airborne, in a radius of about 4 to 6 feet. You should never remove the lid while the ultrasonic is running. In my case it makes blood-borne pathogens airborne, in this case you would likely be releasing thousands of airborne resin particles. All our guidelines come from the state board and resin certainly isn’t included, but it should be tested. I would never do this indoor, knowing how an ultrasonic works . Just my thoughts!
That’s great to know 😀😀 Thank you so much for taking the time to comment with your insights 🥰
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ❤
Interesting testing Wendy....not anything I was thinking of buying and definitely won't ever be buying now that I've seen your experiment! I always enjoy watching! Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching 😀😀👍❤️
At first ,I got too excited to see this machine hack for degassing resin.Thank you so much,M s Wendy for carrying out different experiments to show the difference in results,Ms Wendy 💜.Very useful tutorial 💜
Well its something I needed to share as it could be quite bad, but it also could work lol😂😀💜
@@Toonpish totally agree,unless we try ,how we'll know 😄
Thanks for testing this!
Very welcome 😀😀💜👍
Wow Wendy u have saved allot of people from getting into a dangerous situation and prevented accidents. Thank you for making this video it is really needed❤
Thank you so much 😀😀🥰
That was cool. I can't afford a pot to de-gas but I use a vibrator for 2 minutes and it helps a lot. hugs Sheryl
Sounds like you have it covered Sheryl 👍😀💜
Very happy to see that other people use a vibrator for de-gassing! Works a treat with eco-resin too x
I just see my husbands face if i order 1 of those and try to convince him it for degassing 😂😂😂@@appleoneill5135

Firstly, maths aside, you need to fill close to the max line to get the most out of the cleaner and impart as much vibration to the cup, or in your case at least fill it to above the resin level when the cup sits in it. When I had one of those cleaners here it also had a small heater in the base to warm the water and thus clean better, and mine could not be turned off, so maybe that started heating your resin to the point it started to exothermally run away? My new ultrasonic cleaner has the ability to turn the heat on or off, and is way larger, so would probably help pull any heat away from the resin as it is in there.
Great video though, thanks!
I’m no scientist, but have had some great technical comments from people who seem to know what they are talking about 😀😀 have a read through 👍💜😀
I was thinking maybe it has a warm motor on the bottom heating up your resin? Try again! Maybe with some ice water! That's what Daniel would do! 😂
Oh wow! That could have gone bad fast! I think I’m going to stick with storing my resin in the hotbox that I made. I used 2 seed germination mats wrapped around the inside of a large plastic storage tub, and I just keep them plugged in all the time. It doesn’t get hot, but it keeps the resin at a nice warm temperature and ready to use. I got the idea from watching Robert Talone’s channel.
That's brilliant
That’s a fantastic idea 😀😀❤️👍
👍👍❤️
@@carolynfrancis-mclucas6185 Thank you. I've been using my homemade hotbox for almost a year, and it has worked perfectly for me. My studio is always very cold regardless of the time of year, and I am way to impulsive and impatient to let the bottles heat up as I need them. I think the mats stay around 75-77° F. The storage tub I use is one with a gasket around the lid to help keep humidity down. I just fold the gasket out of the way at the corners the cords need to come out. No cutting or tools involved! 🎉 😂 I live in Texas where it's almost always very humid, and I can't even work with resin during the summer without running a dehumidifier in the studio 27/7. We have "the air you wear" here. 😂🤣😂🤣
@@Toonpish thank you! And, bonus, it literally cost me nothing to make. I was standing there in the studio looking around while I waited for my resin to heat up and saw the seed germination mats lying around in a stack of clutter, and the idea just came to me. I always keep a bunch of air & waterproof storage tubs on hand for yarn storage, so I had to try it out to see if it would work. I did also line the bottom of the storage tub with some of the miles of brown paper that I've saved from Amazon packages just in case there were any leaks or drips.
Isn’t 180 seconds 3 minutes? Am I being blonde?
No it was me 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for trying this out Wendy. Nice sharing ❤
You are so welcome 🥰🥰
Great to see this Wendy thanks. I'd been wondering about ordering one to try
I think I will be using mine for cleaning glasses 😂😂😀👍
@@Toonpish lol yes and jewellery- great for what they are intended for
Thanks Wendy, I’d never heard of people trying this. It seems very dangerous. Maybe safer to stick to what we usually do to remove bubbles. Have a great week x❤
Think that myself 😀😀 I just thought id better share 😀😀🥰
I don’t think I will buy one of those tbh, maybe it’s fine for jewellery but not much else. Thank you for trying though Wendy your efforts are greatly appreciated ❤
You are very welcome 😀😀 and I totally agree 👍😀
GREAT video, Wendy! As it happens, I had similar thoughts several years ago, and bought an ultrasonic cleaner, but never got around to using it. How bizarre that it would set off this reaction! I also have a large percussion vibrator I bought for use on the congested chests of my patients.(Im a retired nurse) I think it might be of use if placed under the work surface, but haven't tried that yet either. Anyway, this is the first time I've seen as good a demo for this on resin. Thank you.❤
So glad it helped 😀😀 really appreciate your comment 👍💜
The vibrations should help though 💜👍
Thank you for the tutorial Wendy! I’ve a spectacle and jewellery ultra sonic cleaner and considered trying it to degass my resin. I’ve changed my mind now and won’t risk it. Thanks again.☺️💐🇬🇧
Glad it helped 😀😀👍🥰
I think I saw the same video as you Wendy, I got excited because I have a jewellery cleaner. So I gave it a go using Jdiction resin.. Well, it was only on for 180 seconds the cup didn’t touch the base I had a little basket with my cleaner. But, the resin got very very hot, it smoked, it went very thick very quickly, couldn’t use it. I put it in a bucket of cold water and put it in the garden… Back to stirring then. Thank you for the video 😊
Thank you for sharing that 😀😀 I really appreciate it 💜
Hey Wendy, I have a smaller version ultra sonic cleaner which I tried today with a small 40 ml cup of resin. Mine doesn’t have a timer so I was just winging it. Because I know it does heat up I kept lifting the cup to check the temperature. The resin did not warm up and the resin did come out really clear. Maybe yours was in too long. 180 is actually 3 minutes so maybe the 90 second mark would work better.
Perhaps it would be better 😀😀 but I will not be using it in the future 👍💜
Hope it works for you, just keep an eye on it 💜💜
Wow. That was really helpful & informative. I had read somewhere to use one to remove bubbles & wondered if it worked. With the amount of fluffing about I do, I already worry about flash cures so this is definitely not something I’d try out. Thanks for testing it on our behalf. X
Barbara I’m glad I put this video up because I nearly didn’t 😂😂 if it helped one person though, it was worth it 🥰🥰🥰
Wendy, this is a very important video. Thank you for sharing this. You never fail to teach me something new. ❤❤❤
You are so welcome 😀 so glad you found it useful 👍💜
Wow! That's shocking. Glad you stayed safe. ❤
It’s good to know though 😳😳💜💜
Great experiment, could you do it again to see if large glitter is dispersed throughout the resin piece, I understand that larger beads and glitter sink to the bottom. I don't know what I'm talking about, and you might already know if it works. I find your thinking process very interesting
You need to stir the resin when it’s thickening up to disperse heavier glitter. There is a fine line between not thickening up enough and too thick though 😀👍💜
I have 2 of this types of these machines, I find them hand for cleaning many objects that have hidden seams on them. As for using it for this would be nuts as it’s based on vibrations to do the work of cleaning. The water in these units actually gets warm when being used. So this fact alone should have been enough to give anyone second thoughts of using it this way😹😹
I love the fact you did this Miss Wendy, as this now has put this idea it to bed for good😹😹😹
I agree 😀😀 though the water was only tepid at most 😂😂
I was unsure about sharing this, but I’m glad I did 👍💜😀
Thanks Wendy this is a great video, can't believe the temp difference
Was quite eye opening 😂😂😀👍
So... would putting the resin cup from the ultrasonic cleaner afterwards into a bowl of cold or cool water, thus cooling the resin help stop the overheating reaction or is the resin already ruined. ? Just an idea.
Sadly not, once the reaction has started you can’t go back, it’s already started curing too fast 😀💜
Maybe put into the ultrasound before mixing the A and B together.
🤔🤔🤔 well that’s definitely different 😀😀💜
Are you happy with the product as far as the jewel-cleaning aspect goes? Is it worth it to you to keep it for other things/crafts?
Oh definitely 👍 it does what it’s supposed to do 😀😀👍💜
Wow, I would have never thought to try that. Thank you for sharing your findings. ❤❤
You are very welcome 😀😀👍❤️
Ì think only 2 of us realised about the 3 minutes. Anyway you need to use the 90 seconds 😊😊😊
😂😂 perhaps I will forget timings 😂😂😂😂
Now try this again with the water level above the resin. I use an ultrasonic cleaner to de-gas small amounts pretty often.
From the comments I’ve read, I feel safer not using it 😂😂
I hope you get a good laugh out of all of us correcting your time or as someone said, 'your mathing'. LOL
😂😂😂 honestly I’m such an idiot 😂😂 but at least it’s made people laugh 🤷♀️😂
Very interesting video. As the liquid moves, do you think it will mix the resin?
I would think so 🤔😀❤️
Thank so much for sharing this info Wendy! cheers
You are so welcome! 😀😀💜
Great experiment i think that it got so warm is because of the machine gets warm itself and that causes the heat in the resin. Atleast that is what i think
But the water was still cold 😳😳 I should have said that 😂😂
A great informative video. I won't be trying it out anytime soon, or ever😂. 😍
😀😀😀 glad to have helped 👍❤️
Vibration creates friction, friction creates heat. 180 seconds is 60 (1 minute) x 3 = 3 minutes. Twice at 3 minutes is 6 minutes total. 😉
😂😂😂 well it’s a good job I’m not an accountant or something 😂😂😀👍💜
@@Toonpish it was still a great experiment! 😁
great video, thank you for doing the testing for us 😊
Thank you for watching and commenting 😀😀💜
Great experiment!
Thank you!😀😀👍
Oh goodness! Like others I was getting excited! Especially since I have an ultrasonic cleaner! Thank you for educating us!
Now another question for you.. have you ever tried curing resin using one of those UV sanitizers for phones, glasses and such? I'm very curious if they could do cure UV resin... Or has anyone else tried?
🤔🤔🤔 I may have to google that one 😂😂 never heard of it 🤷♀️😀
Lol. Me neither Wendy! But I was thinking about if it could work especially since I have seen curing boxes on Amazon. And these UV sanitizers for phones and such, look very similar
I’m glad you made this video, Wendy. I have been wondering if a jar vacuum would work. I don’t have any science or basis other than I thought of maybe it would work. It takes air out of the jar when canning. Maybe it will be too strong. 🤷🏻♀️
Ooo that does sound like a vacuum chamber to me 😀😀 I don’t have one sadly to try it out 😔 but it may be too strong as you said 🤷♀️😀👍
No it will work fine just make sure you are using a unit beg enough to allow room around it and place a silicone mat under the resin cup. It’s about the same as the one made for resin the only difference is yes it’s stronger and louder 😹😹😹so make sure you have a resin cup tall enough to allow the resin room to rise up the cup. I have two of these food style machines after inheriting Moms unit years ago. I had been toying with idea of selling Moms machine, but when I started watching RUclips on resin work and saw people using the paint pot canister for spray painting I was going to buy one for my use in resin work when it dawned on me I could use Moms food vacuum machine to do this in its place. That’s why I said make sure your resin cup is bigger than it needs to be to allow room for the resin to rise up 🤗🤗
Hi Wendy, my name is Rebecca, I am very interested in purchasing your ethereal mica powder set and can not find it. Cold you please point me in the right direction? Buy the way I am in the USA. Your colors are amazing. Thank you very much.
Hi there😀😀 here is the link

Happy crafting 🥰
@@Toonpish Thank you so much. I just love your work.I've watched your channel all the time
Thank you so much for the information.
Very welcome 😀😀
That was a very interesting experiment. The difference between those two coasters is pretty wild. It doesn't seem like it is a good idea to use that for resin. You never know these things until you try them, though. Thanks!
I was unsure if I should put this video out 🤔 but I am glad I did 😀👍💜
@@Toonpish It's good to see the mistakes or things that just don't work out too well so we can learn and know what to do. It really is appreciated.
Okay Wendy, redo for 90 secs, lets see!
🤔🤔🤔 maybe 🤔
probably would work much better if you had something on the bottom of the cup, instead of putting it in the cleaner, and sitting in the water. Maybe if you put a cup upside down inside first and the resin cup on top of that, so it gets the vibration but not the heat.
I don’t think it works like that 🤔🤔 but great to see you thinking about it 😀👍💜
@@Toonpish what about if you used one of those vacuum storage bags, put resin in cup put cup in bag and vacuum the air out, then keep vacuuming until the bubbles rise and pop. I dont know if that would work either but its an idea.
Is that ultrasonic cleaner one that heats up, or was all the heat coming from the resin? I wonder if ice cold water would calm the reaction. I have a cheap non-heated ultrasonic mcleaner, and I just might try this out, with a smaller amount of resin.
Well the water was still cool 😳😳 I actually should have said that 😂😂
@@Toonpish Ok, so it was just the reaction then. I asked, because the really good (expensive) ultrasonic cleaners come with a heating function.
Thanks 🙏 for sharing.
My pleasure😀😀👍
I think you mean 3 minutes not 11/2 minutes
😂😂😂 yup I’m an idiot for sure 😂😂
Maybe try disabling the heater? 😅
It’s not the heating part that’s the problem apparently 😀😀 have a read though the comments, there are a lot of people who sound very knowledgeable on this 😀😀💜👍
180 seconds is 3 minutes. 90 seconds would be 1.5 minutes.
😂😂😂👍 just call me an idiot 😳😂
@@Toonpish never! We all get mixed up now and then!
Very innovative idea,Ms Wendy 💜💜.Thank you so much for always sharing your experimenting videos.Enjoyed watching this premier with you all.Hope you had wonderful vacations in US 😍.Hopefully soon ,I'll start with the project that is inspired by your project a few months back💜💜💜.
Sudha I am sure whatever you do it will be great. thank you so much as alway for your continued support 😀😀💜
180 seconds ìs 3 minutes lol.
😳😂😂😂😂
This one went clean straight over my head LOL😂 I think I'm going to stick with UV resin. And just keep watching your amazing Channel! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

@@amandagebel2528 aww thank you 😀
You are welcome 🥰💜💜💜💚💚💚
Wow, amazing 😮 I had wondered if the cleaner would work for bubbles! I personally wouldn’t use it for removing bubbles. TFS 😊
You’re welcome 😊 😀😀🥰
Wow...almost brought it to flash cure! Glad you were keeping a close eye on that, Wendy. 😬😲 I wonder...would it work better if the resin were in a silicone cup rather than plastic? Probably not. Best to use a degasser! I definitely won't be buying an ultrasonic cleaner.
Great experiment, Wendy; thank you! 💕😊👍
I think I will stay away from this one now 😂😂 but I thought it better to share 😀😀👍❤️
Hi Wendy!! Interesting experiment 🤔 I was so excited to see the results. I was expecting a cool new way of degassing resin, but when I saw the temperature rising up so fast I thought 😳 that’s not a good sign 😞 but you’ve been so close to succeed! 😃 Thanks a lot for sharing this experiment! Have a great day! 🥰🙋🏻♂️
Gabrielle 😀 I had my fingers crossed 😂😂 but it wasn’t to be 🤷♀️😀👍
I love, in your introduction, your inflection on OK when you say “I hope you’re doing OK.”
I’d never heard of this. Ty for the experiment. I have the Resiners degassing machine, but I never feel like it really works. Mine doesn’t bubble up like other peoples. 😳
Make sure you don’t have any air leaks with your resiners airless.
Glad you enjoyed the video 😀😀👍❤️
Oh wow am I glad I watched this through. I bought a sonic jewellery cleaner a few months back (to clean jewellery obvs😂) but I had seen this video and put it in my watch later, think Yass this is going to be epic! Thank goodness I watched before giving it a go and thank you Wendy for experimenting so I didn’t have to deal with the fallout of a melting cup full of hot resin. It is very very appreciated
I’m am very happy to have helped 😀😀😀 I was unsure about it 🤔🤔 but I’m glad I did 👍❤️
thank you for the info
You are welcome 😀🥰
That was a very interesting experiment. I haven't heard of using a ultrasonic cleaner like this before. But after seeing this don't think I'll be trying it either. Thanks for doing this Wendy. 👍
Glad it’s helped 😀😀🥰
Shared. It sounds like a great idea. Fun experiment Wendy. Have a great week!
Thank you! You too!
Never heard of this machine until tonight😯.Thank you Wendy for showing it to us
I think I will give this one a miss .
Love your top 🤩😍

Hi Wendy thanks for testing this very interesting ❤❤❤ xxx
If it helps then I am happy 😀😀😀💜💜💜
maybe the 3 minutes would have been enough - not sure Hahaha 0 when I saw your title - I was going to look for my daughter ultrasonic machine - Thank you for all you do for us - never too old to learn
Maybe 🤔🤔 but once bitten 😂😂 I won’t be using it again 👍💜

Hi wendy. Thanks for showing this. Love you and your videos. People need to realise they are using chemicals that can be very dangerous. There is science involved and need to do some research before following trends on youtube. Jewellery cleaners work by vibration. They rub the molecules together really fast causing friction. Friction makes heat. Thats why the exothermic reaction. If the lable doesnt say it can be used to degass resin, then I wouldn't.
Withlove, and keep the videos coming❤
Thank you so much for your explanation 😀😀 I’m glad I put this video out as I really was unsure 🤷♀️ 😂😂
