Epoxy Resin and Resin Pigment Set - Crystal Clear Epoxy Resin, 20 Vibrant Color Liquid Epoxy Resin Dye, Resin Art Supplies Starter Kit for Art, Crafts, Tumblers & Jewelry Making, Molds, Coating

Bought this to preserve owl pellet remains with my 11 yr old sister! Such a great set, especially for the price. Comes with everything you need to start. You’ll need your own molds but those are easy to find, and you will need to supply your own gloves for multiple projects. The tweezers, pipette, measuring cups, and beakers are all excellent and very useful. For the pigment a little goes a long way. The instructions say to use 5 drops of color, I used less for molds that were approximately 2 inches and it was fine. I was hesitant to buy this initially because of the mixed reviews and uncertainty in curing time. I will say what I personally experienced- curing time depends on how thoroughly you mix the hardener and resin, measuring precisely and equal parts, and the quantity of how much you make at once. If you mix large amounts it will cure faster and will also heat up, if you are working with smaller projects or layering then curing time will take longer and won’t heat up as much. (i.e. one of the molds took 3 days to cure and was made in layers, a different mold of the same size took one day but I filled the mold all at once.) I suspect the bad reviews were likely imprecise measurement mistakes or not mixing thoroughly. (I’ve found that working with epoxy resin takes lots of patience!) I would definitely recommend this product for beginners.

The colors are perfect, easy to use and great quality. You really can't ask for more.

Perfect for beginners but wouldn’t recommend it for someone who knows what they’re doing

This is my first time using resin and I heard I put the bottles in warm water before pouring helps with bubbles, and it worked as you can see in the picture. In my coaster there is a space where the resin didn't settle (this was my mistake). You have around 20 mins or less to make any changes before the resin starts curing. It's plenty of time for what I'm using it for, but some may find this challenging. Overall recommend!

Easy to use. Loved the project!
