Works great.

First time using epoxy and I had zero issues. Definitely worth the money. I was able to cover my helmet entirely and still have half of each bottle left. It's easy to use, just make sure you warm the bottle in a bucket or big cup with hot water before you try to poor the mixture into a measuring cup and once you finish mixing, I would also recommend not using it in a room under 75F as it becomes tacky after about 5 minutes in the container you mix it in.

I used this as a top coat when redoing my laundry room countertops and I've gotten several compliments about the shine. It's self leveling, but dries quick. I had non idea what I was doing, and didn't mess it up. So far the counters haven't chipped or stained and still look good (about 3 months in)

Easy to use, great for beginners, super strong and versatile. I’ve use this stuff for everything from sealing wood, patching, in place of super glue or other adhesives, for gloss coated finished items even securing rare earth magnets to solid metal 45 degree jig blocks and sanding a perfect 90. It is durable and lasts, the finish has always been crystal clear and beautiful. A few tips, place a wood popsicle stick in a drill for mixing. Run it at half speed in the cup. It stirs it up quickly and evenly w/o killing your wrist. Keep the stick submersed to avoid air bubbles. However even that’s no big deal I’ve found with projects I didn’t care about bubbles I mixed full speed and once poured used a propane blow torch, full flame and quickly ran over the top. Bubbles came right out and the finish was still perfect. Careful with the stick afterword, I dropped one on my shop floor and it’s been there for months rock solid. I figured it’d break loose naturally after a week or so of being stepped and worked on, but nope its now a very funny part of my shop floor. That’s when I started using this stuff as a super adhesive.

It was easy to mix and pour. It set up as expected. It was a good amount to complete the project.

Not sure how this will turn out, but you definitely do not have 30 minutes of working time. It’s more like about 5. That’s when it started coagulating.

I love this product after I bought it I seen the bad reviews. I can tell you exactly why they had their issues they did after 1 time using it.Before mixing I let my bottles stay in the room I was mixing and pouring in which means the room and product has to reach temp before you do anything.So if you had Tacky, sticky, didnt cure all the way issues: the temps before mixing the product was not 75 or higher. The product more than likely was cold and needs to be warmed via a water bath or just sit in the room with the 75 or higher temp going. They recommend 75 degrees to 80 degrees in the area you are doing mixing, pouring, and curing in. The temp must stay the same 75 or higher throughout the 24 hours of curingIt's a one to one ratio, which means half and half. You mix half resin to half hardener and do not mix more or less. If you mix more hardener to resin or more resin to hardener it will not cure all the way and will be super tacky.Melting plastic cup?? Did you have the right type of cup?? I literally had a laundry soap lid and mixed my stuff in it and it never melted.I kept my room at 75 to 90 degrees I had no issues with curing and my nail table turned out amazing!!I highly reccomend this brand if you have the patience to read the instructions and if you have time watch a video on epoxy resin process on YouTube I can tell you that helped me the most.Did I need to have ventilation?? No. The product does not have a strong chemical odor to it.I will definitely be buying more if I ever need to.

Follow the instructions (easy!) and it will dry crystal clear, no bubbles and seal your project as needed. Stays pliable for 30min so can move, clean and manipulate as needed for your project. I was covering an artistic paint project on quartz, and needed the resin to go just up to the edge of the paint area and slightly onto the quartz to seal it all in. Pouring from back and moving it forward with a stir stick to cover as needed, worked great. As the resin slowly crept too far over the edge, I was able to wipe up excess until it got too tacky in texture (approx. 30 min) at which point I stopped and let it all just cure As Was. It appears like glass, and made my paint swirls underneath look like glass as well. The client (and I) was really happy with the outcome.Editing to add: A few other helpful comments. It's impossible to not have some bubbles form in the mixture no matter how gently you mix the two bottles together (no matter what brand of resin you use). However, if you use a heat gun (or blow torch) to go over the resin - which also helps the resin cure much faster - the heat will remove ALL bubbles. Also, the two bottles combined covered a surface area that was 15 FEET by 1/2 foot - 1 foot wide (as can see from image above, my widths were "organic", with the resin poured thickly, approx. 1/4".
