Been working with resin for years and finally someone is gracious enough to share the finishing process. THANKS - I typed out the steps with items you need to pick up: AA 150 sandpaper 240 sandpaper C 800 grit sandpaper wet with water and dish soap P 1000 grit sandpaper wet with water and dish soap Turtle Wax Rubbing compound Turtle Wax Polishing compound

My arthritic finger hurt just watching them hands. Good job.

You are right to the point, no beating around the B******* bush, Iv’e looked at like 10 vids and they all did the same mistakes, no info on what they are doing or why, no description of materials for whatever reason or even show how to do the job. A video I watched before this one claimed to show how to polish resin, NOPE, legit just some guy talking about his rotary tool without using it. You showed everything required in stages, no cuts, how is that so difficult for those other fools, thank you so much!

I know this is an older video, I just wanted to thank you for it! So many of the sanding and polishing resin videos use power tools. I'm just a small-time crafter and this is exactly what I needed, so thank you!!

Just a warning that it’s a good idea to dip your resin item in water while sanding because the dust isn’t good to breathe in!

I saw another video on resin that had a very short polishing part, where they showed four separate numbers down in the corner, but didn't explain what they were for, and it was sped up. This is the FIRST video that lets me understand what the numbers were - it was the grit of the sandpaper. This is the first video I've found that clearly shows what to do and what products you use. Newbie here, so thank you so much for your help and clear instructions without ever saying anything.

Thank you... one of the best and clearest videos on the topic... no bs, no babble, no ‘you have to have this powertool’ nonsense. Cheers!

I've never seen that before, it looks like glass. Thank you for sharing this amazing result!!!!!

OMG THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the issue I needed solved. thank you so much. They seem to keep getting tiny little fuzz particles in some of my resin coasters and I was trying to find a way to sand it down just a little bit and then polish it without having to add a whole another coat of epoxy. THANK YOU!!!!!

Thank you so much for showing the entire process, albeit sped up. I bought a different plastic polish to fish some resin pieces that have imperfect surfaces and it didn’t seem to do diddly squat even with proper sanding. I’m going to try the turtle wax ones now!

First video I have found that actually helped me figure out how to sand and polish my pieces. Thank you!

Akhirnya nemu juga tutorial yang ngga pake mesin, thx video nya bang, sangat bermanfaat.

I guess now it’s time for you to take a nap. Thanks for sharing. Good info

Nice! Thank you for sharing!

Could you let me know how long you sand for or what you are looking for before you stop at each stage? Thanks for the video, I’m thinking a timer might be a useful addition. Please let me know. 👍

I use a buff on perspex as is melts the surface slightly but metal polish is really good too!

Can you also use this process with bigger resin products like for lamp resin when you don't have the machine?

Thank you! Couldn't figure out which polish to get!

Thanks. It is a very helpful video for beginners like me

Really Amazing work. Just wondering, How do you know that now it's time to change the grit??

Good job thanks for sharing

Amazing job 💞 thanks for the advices

Thank you for sharing such a simple guide in polishing resin into like a glass you are truly helpful and wonderful ^^

Very Good. I always seen when they hurry or yack too much. I just love how you have done it. Thank You

yay finally a solution to have true clear resin

Wow good amazing 👏

Is it this specific brand of rubbing/polishing that works well with epoxy resin or can you use most kinds of rubbing/polishing compounds? Very new to this!

Super useful thanks a-lot. This solved my issue with foggy lenses on my Binoculars…

Rapaz, isso dá trabalho, mas o resultado é muito bom. Parabéns.

Thanks for making the video 👍 Will this work on Epoxy resin?

I don’t know much but is it necessary to use different kinds of sandpaper? or is that optional. Also what kind of polish to I use ?

I'm making something for my wife out of epoxy resin, and I was wondering how long do you sand with one grit before moving on to the next grit? Also, would it be alright to start with 320 grit? Thank you!

Esto podría resultar para el visor de un casco? Pregunto porque parece ser el mismo material Buen video!

Gracias!! 😊 Saludos desde Monterrey Nuevo León México!..🤗

Really great useful invention

Can this be done with any brand of epoxy resin? I'm gonna start a project with East Coast resin as it's the cheapest I can find in a gallon for my lamps I'll be making. Thanks for showing the actual polishing products you use!

capek juga bikin bening, tapi yang penting hasilnya dapet. thanks 👍

I have seen a lot of polishing videos for resin, only this one is helpful for me, availble tools and simple way thanks

Thanks for this informative video..But have you used sand paper for rubbing?

after sanding and everything what would happen if you were to spray it with clear coat? instead of using the turtle wax and polishing compound?

Good clean 👌

Hello, I am in Argentina and I would like to know what they put on the end of the sanding work so that it is so shiny, thank you

I have all the grits and the rubbing compound except for the last polishing compound, will it still be clear or shiny if I don't use the last one?

Could you use this method to polish a scratched plastic crystal on a swatch watch?

Good on you man! That is a lot of work!

Since the video is sped up a bit, I was curious as to how long you will sand each side for? Any specific length of time? Also, I'm curious about why you jumped from 240 up to 800. I always heard Polishing needed a Gradual Increase.

will it be crystal clear at the end? like when the resin dries and its as clear as that?

Is there a particular type of cloth you are using to rub the turtle wax in? or is that just simple microfiber cloth?

Any metal polish can be used

What does the P stand for in P1000 grit? Is it a specific type of abrasive paper I need? Thanks for the video!

Maravilloso! Me preguntaba donde podria conseguir esos pulidores Turtle o algo similar y accesible. Saludos desde Chile

I’d recommend using the Drexel tool sander if you have arthritis like I do. Thanks for your videos!

This is really nice... is there a way to do it that is faster/not as labor intensive for hands/wrists? I have issues with the nerves in my hands and arms and don't know if I'd be able to do this :( can I use electric sander just as well?

Thank you for pinning what you use in this process 🙏💜💜

Wonderful job. But curious to know that Why did your resin piece become so cloudy??

You can start with any grit just make sure you don't take too much off. Nice up with wet and dry sandpaper up to 1000grit and over. I like to go up to 3000grit and over.

Gracias muy bonito te queda👍

Thank you so much for sharing!!

Awesome! Thanks for the video!

Wow thats awesome but definitely a process

Me puso hasta la madre tu pranganez, eso de utilizar pedaceria de hojas de lija...

So helpful! Anyway, can I replace the C800 ? So difficult to find it in my country. What is your suggestion? Thank you..

Love and appreciation from Pakistan

Thanks for sharing.

Mmang bereh that buet droeneuh..aneuk miet padip droe ka

could you use the turtle wax ect after using a dremol 300 sander or do you have to use your sanding technique for this result

would you please teach us how to make an epoxy using handsoap and glitter

What grit are you using for both sand papers?

Nice swap

It's great . Which kind of Polyester did you used ? . PET , PBT , RYNITE , or which one ?

Can u please tell me which polishing compound is best for resin jewellery art

Hi, I used Turtle Wax Polishing Compound on a piece of resin. I applied it with Dremel and my results are not what I expected. My piece is now cloudy. It was shiny and clear when I started. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Great example of concept... for printing block crafts, still an amazing result though!

liked for the intro music. I knew I would learn after also...

There goes my dreams of creating things with epoxy resin

Wonderful work! Tanks !

Thanks to give ideas

Awesome 👏🏼

Can i use this resin without a pressure pot? I don't have the space for one

Dá pra fazer assim com a lente dos óculos

Muito bom perfeito 👍👌👏👏👏

It seems that making them by hand does not achieve a certain level of smoothness, there are still quite a few scratches that we can see in the backlit position. But nonetheless it is quite good without supportive devices!

Whoa tons of steps

That seemed like too much work. I wouldn't want to do all that for EVERY clear piece I make.

Hi I'm having this problem when I demoed the inner part is dual can I spray the mold with something shiny or spray the whole thing with an acrylic spray

Would this work if you used only the polishing compound? Or must you use the rubbing compound first?

do you have to do anything else to where as a pendant?

I making like that lods good sharing

Can you also dye resin like red?

I tried by sanding from 150 grit to 7000 grit with machine. But still cloudy 😢. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Esta excelente el video se puede a mano por que la mayoria sube pero con maquinas.

Very nice video. It looks like optic white calcite.

I have done very similar with Woodglut designs.

How long does it last?

What a procedure!!!

Perfect ❤❤

oh! u pulled out a kind of jewelry from stuff anyone doesn’t care!! awesome!

Cuantos minutos empleas en pulir la pieza por favor? Para que te de ese brillo?. Gracias

What kind fo cloth/towel did you use?"

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Gracias! Realmente interesante!😉👍🏻
