IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please ALWAYS use resin with proper precautions including wearing proper PPEs (glove, mask, respirator etc) AND working in a well ventilated space. I recommend getting a hold of the SDS (Safety Data Sheet) info that every resin company has available to the public (by law). This has all the info about the resin you are using including the precautions you need to take and first aid care. Watch my resin safety video for more info: • RESIN SAFETY | Importa...

Why do I use two different types of resin in my projects?
I use a casting resin to cast and a doming resin for doming.
Casting resin is usually low in viscosity and works very well in molds without much issue with the bubbles. Also the low viscosity will allow the resin to reach detailed area of the mold. Doming resin is thick in viscosity and holds its shape very nicely. It creates a full dome and tends to hold the surface tension much better than low viscosity resin. So lower risk of the resin dripping off the sides. It also gives the piece a smooth, flawless finish.

one more thing.... when applying resin to shrink plastic, it's best to lightly sand your shrink plastic before you apply the sticker and resin so that the resin has something to grip.

@rosigribouilli5399 Жыл бұрын

But isn't it the role of the sealer spray ? Or does it have to be done as well even when using a sealer spray ?

@thecrapartistx Жыл бұрын

@@rosigribouilli5399 a spray sealer is going to just sit on the shrink plastic and create a layer that will eventually peel off. When you stand the plastic you create tiny little grooves for the resin to sink into and grip creating a better seal. You may as well be putting a layer of liquid latex down between the sticker and the resin if you use spray sealer...

Use shrink plastic to outline the border 4. cut out the outline of shrink plastic 5. use hole puncher to punch hole 6. rubbing alcohol on plastic 7. use pre heated toaster oven 350 farenheit 8. Cool down plastic (press it down flat) 9. put print of engine onto plastic 10. spray with sealer spray throughly, allow it to fully dry 11. apply 2 part resin to dome the keychain with a toothpick 12. use blow dryer to dry it 13. apply keychain
