JDictionEpoxy Resin Clear High Gloss Epoxy Resin, Maximum 1.5 Inch Deep Pour 1 Gallon Casting Resin for Jewelry Making, Table Top, Wood and Mold Crafts

I use this resin for making some art projects, and so far it seems to be working great. Good clarity. Definitely takes a bit to set up and cure fully. Mixing creates a fair amount of bubbles so I found sonicating the molds works great. Definitely recommend doing this with good ventilation and not indoors unless you want to take years off your life. Oh and the pumps are a nice touch too that help keep it clean with less mess and even measuring

This is a great medium viscosity resin to make resin flower with or whatever project your working on. Super clear high gloss finish and it just an all around great product.

Great resin! I used J Diction UV resin, and I'm very impressed. Decided to try the epoxy resin, and I was not disappointed.

I make resin art and jewelry for a living. First off, the performance that every resin advertises is based on factory controlled working environments. I have the ambient temperature set to 75F and a dehumidifier set to 50% or less, which seems to be the general recommendation. Every resin fail I’ve had has been because of high humidity or cold temps.This resin is my favorite so far.PROS- super clear, like glass clear when cured, unless the silicone mold is poor quality or humidity is too high. Also doesn’t seem to attract dust like other resins but I vacuum my studio regularly and have an air purifier.- virtually no bubbles when cured - I use a small electric mixer and pour in layers of 0.5.” Always when working with resin, temp has to be high enough to encourage gas to escape but low enough that cure time isn’t accelerated and gas gets trapped before reaching the surface. It’s science, people. I even accidentally introduced a ton of bubbles when not paying attention to the submersion of my mixer and they disappeared once poured and hit with a heat gun. Also haven’t had a single issue with micro-bubbles, the low viscosity isolates gas and they dissolve quickly- the resin comes out slightly blue tinted, unnoticeable except to the trained eye, and this prevents yellowing. I think it makes for a really attractive finish. Other resins look dull in comparison.- easy to maintain surface tension which is helpful for when I accidentally overfill molds - just remove a bit with a syringe and it easily self-levels- no odor when using and no off-gassing odor when cured. Other resins I’ve had to submerge cured products in baking soda before I can sell them because the products reek- handles dyes and inclusions really well - no streaking, flowers stay submerged and don’t rot, bubbles don’t adhere to them.- finished products are oleophobic (resist fingerprints), hydrophobic, easy to carve and polish, don’t scratch easily and don’t break when droppedCONS- The minor (in my opinion) trade off is the short work time (20-30 min) and long cure time. I mix in low quantities (4-7oz) and pour in thin layers, recoat after 20ish hours. I leave fully finished pieces in the mold for 48hrs to be safe, but I have a large workspace and can work on multiple pieces at a time.- Also, the locking caps are annoying to clean. I don’t use the pumps. Lotion bottles, soap bottles, etc use pumps and the reverse gravity suction action introduces air. Don’t do it. Just use accurate measuring cups and a steady hand.I highly recommend this resin for pros and even beginners if you pay attention to the required working conditions. It’s beautiful to work with and low stress compared to others. And my art sales are up!

As other reviewers have said one of my bottles was significantly less full than the other one was resulting in not having a full gallon and not having enough for my my project forcing me to buy this for a second time.I’m surprised by the reviews that say that it had no smell, because I thought that it smelled terrible and ended up having to bring it outside I blamed it on my sebsative nose, put them I got a poor air quality alert from my amazon air quality thing and the VOCs were nearly 80 and rising they went down pretty quickly after the project was sent outside which was not an easy task to get it there. For reference I’ve used two different kinds of UV curing resin and two other kinds of two part epoxy inside and the VOCs have never risen that muchIt does cures pretty clear with limited bubbles I didn’t even use heat to get rid of bubbles however due to the significant difference in the amount of product and the terrible smell I’ll be using this outside to finish this product and probably will not being using it again, but I didn’t want to use two different products and get different results.

Love the clear resin!

Very easy to work with, perfect results

Great product with a great price.
