I am curious as I am using Mica powders with resin and it can be quite difficult to spot bubbles as initially you cant see them. Would it be best to put mica powders at the base of the molds first then mix it once the resin is in the mold. Or pre mix it? As I recently used a cap/lid mold for my dice set and all the top faces are filled with bubbles. I found this video very helpful I just wanted to try and figure out where I am going wrong it was only my first time doing it but I want to see what I can improve.

For dice you generally need to use one of the methods that actually remove the bubbles (vacuum, ultrasonic, pressure pot). They're enclosed so the tiny bubbles rise to the top when they're curing otherwise and get stuck (even without the mica, it just makes it harder to see what's going on). Dice are definitely one of the harder things to get bubble free

Hi, Lamella - thanks for your very helpful video. I like especially your suggestion of using two squeeze bottles to add resin to the cup - I'm sure it's much easier to control than pouring from my ResinPro bottles. My main challenge is to find methods for mixing colorants when the quantities are so small. I usually work with batches of 80 grams, more or less, and some pieces that require coloring need much less. So I am measuring one, two, three or more points of a narrow knife in the case of powders, and drops from an eye dropper or even a medical syringe in the case of the liquids. Quantities too small to register on a scale that gives me hundredths of a gram. But it's a crude method, and it's hard not to use too much colorant. I know you're not concentrating on such problems in this video, but do you have any suggestions? Many thanks, Allen

@@LamellaCreations A very good suggestion, Lamella - thank you. I would add, apropos of your suggestion about using squeeze bottles, that a possible problem might arise from the contact with air of the A part. I'm using ResinPro, the 5:3 stuff, and I was down the last of my bottles. I emptied each into a clean paper cup to get an accurate weight, so I could be sure of having enough for my next round of work. I had about 60g of A and 35g of B - just about right. I wasn't quite ready to work, so I covered the cups to keep the dust out. I figured contact with the air couldn't be much worse in the cups than in the bottles. But two days later, a thick film had formed on the surface of the A. (The B was O.K.) I was able to use the A, though, by pouring the liquid out from underneath the film. I mixed as usual, and it handled and hardened perfectly well. I must admit, however, that the last of the A was ever-so-slightly lumpy when I poured it from the big (1kg) bottle - even that ("lumpy") is putting it too strongly - but it was not perfectly homogeneous, and I suppose that's what collected on the surface and formed a film. I had only been using those bottles for three months or so, but perhaps the air in the bottle can be a factor. I guess this is why working with resin is an art rather than a science - because you can't always be quite sure how things are going to come out. Best regards, Allen

So, what do you do when the resin already has bubbles in it before you even pour it? Just, hanging out in the resin bottle. Haven't mixed it with anything. It already has *tons* of microbubbles even after letting it sit in hot water. I've tried so many resin types and brands - they all *start* with bubbles already in them.

Why is it that the majority of the manufacturers and KZfaqrs out there don’t cover this most important aspect of working with the epoxy resin I have seen a lot of videos. I know a decent amount about chemistry. I knew it getting into, but even the manufactures of the resin that I have used so far where are you really really well known manufacturer they just kind of play it off and say oh you know :don’t get it on your skin and then the second manufacturer I got has full MSDN work up sheet in the booklet and they’re very direct about all this and it’s not an allergic reaction. We’re having a chemical reaction from mixing two chemicals that are ready in a class that’s not good for your skin and we’re releasing. Vapors in and around and us ; which you’re getting a chemical burn. Even on Wikipedia (which I don’t trust in general just to be upfront) everything says allergic reaction with allergic reaction. it’s not an allergic reaction. We’re dealing with the classic chemicals that when they mix together are going into a chemical reaction and energy is created, you know the way the chemistry operates you exchanging energy and what not either once the equation or on the other and this particular reaction is releasing Vapors and into the air that are bad for your lungs bad for your skin bad for your eyes why you have to wear such a legitimate level respirator This is chemistry 101 when you have to have a MSDN sheet for reference for hazardous materials the menu obviously with the particulates when you send things down all the videos I see you everybody has KZfaq, but I’ve only seen one guy actually take note because I know I’m wearing my protective gear, but you know the purpose of this KZfaq video real quick And a lot of the people who are viral do you have that one video but they don’t remind people over and over again like they should because your average person who’s gonna go I want to try this out they’re going to Amazon and they’ll go look and I’m just gonna name the name of the company which is lots of resin. You know they’re wildly known Epoxy, art, and crafts company they don’t really bring to the attention of the customer the level of seriousness there is involved they’ve got it set up with my little pictures of mom and the daughter you make whatever and it’s cool like that’s it’s a craft thing I get it but You’re working with chemicals you’re doing a chemical reaction or the side effects of that reaction is releasing gas vapor into the immediate area and you see people when they finally have their first belt with it because they did a long whore and you’re just leaning over your project because you’re doing art so you really close to it And then they have that one video or picture they share where their whole face is just ate up and it looks like you know their hyper allergic to everything like Millhouse on the Simpsons and needs an EpiPen which face just swells all the way up that’s a chemical burn respiratory burn. It’s a glass of chemicals that is in the similar family as chlorine Look at the chemical reaction go look up the data that’s why partially why you had for a respirator when you’re mixing the two liquids parts together raw chlorine burn your lungs with the inside out and kills you benzene the same way, but everybody calls it. allergic reaction reaction it’s not allergic it’s not an allergy. It is a chemical burn and I don’t understand why people don’t talk about it and your videos are great. Don’t please don’t get me wrong and anyway in fact, I got your video from a Reddit thread And your very thorough and informative and went all the way through even sanding which I don’t see other people do either everybody’s all sanding with their video with their camera to see their hand and and what not deal with various grits of sandpaper getting that mirror image they don’t mention wearing a mask you don’t want the particulates getting in your lungs it’s just like 3-D printing if you print and ABS Which has its own characteristics of the begin with you’re working with a particular polymer that releases gas into the air, especially depending on the temperatures and even PLA if you crank up the temperature too high, it will release gases into the air and you will get headaches and all kinds of stuff Not to mention all that stuff is plastic you can breathe in. It seriously concerns me that you in between epoxy and 3-D printing. There’s not a lot more emphasis on things and I’ve been through printing for six years roughly now and I’m very aware what I’m doing. I steered clear of ABS from the get-go but I’ve done more research of what PLA and PET G, or comprised of even though they’re made out of natural materials and whatever he still run wrist certain things about how they make the filament and you crank your temperature too high depends on what you’re using and then again the sanding. These are really great crafts and technological fabrication machines and what not and I’m really good with printers and I’ve just tiptoed into epoxy, but I was fully aware of the chemistry and I did a bunch of digging to see if anybody had stuff mentioned in their manuals I’ve had two separate and identical kits from let’s resin to begin with because I needed some, quick, setting non-deep or deep casting epoxy, but I switched over to another companies epoxy out of the blue because it was one. It was on sale and it was a larger quantity I needed to do for some craft for the holidays. I prep myself the best I could I already had a respirator brand new in the bag, and it met exceeded the needs. There’s some other things you can do to help protect yourself, but in the long run, you need a well ventilated area just like you mentioned even after you’re done and let them cure for a few days and I guess that has to do with a lot of people use the pot deal that I keep seeing come up because that cuts down on that but I’ve got help with filters I’ve got scrubbers which helped me because I’m in a little more of them closed area and even with the safety precautions that I’ve taken I know that I got a little bit of exposure And just a little bit of the vapor exposure around your eyes without touching your eyes are splashing into your eyes is not good I mean like I mentioned previously this is a similar, but not as corrosive as chlorine. It’s in the same family and every place I googled in the last 510 minutes all called an allergic reaction, if you get chlorine for your skin and your skin burn just called the chemical reaction so I don’t know why this downplay of this is being handled even though one of the two companies I have personally purchased and use products for full MSDN sheets when you get MSDN sheets with your products your products is a higher caliber and it’s not going to hobby lobby arts and crafts and getting wood glue and popsicle sticks. 😢

Hello anyone reading this question. In regards to the ultrasonic cleaner to remove bubbles, wondering if you can put your resin filled mold directly into the ultrasonic cleaner. I ask as I purchased an ultrasonic cleaner recently and although the cleaner did remove all of the bubbles (very impressive), it was already in the curing / setting stage and was not real easy to pour on my tumbler. Will have to reduce the time for future reference. Although I plan on using resin to also fill molds. I'd like to remove all bubbles for the molds due to how deep the molds can be and that will make it harder to remove the bubbles, Figured if I could remove the bubbles directly in the mold in the ultrasonic cleaner. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

@LamellaCreations
@LamellaCreations Жыл бұрын
If they're there when you're pouring the resin in you can coax them out with a toothpick or similar (just be careful not to scratch the mould). If they only appear after a while that can be from a very low quality mould and the bubbles are leeching out from the silicone. Not much you can do about the second one but use different moulds

Would it be worthwhile to try the alcohol spray trick? Actually, what I did was take a silicone baby food spoon, dip it in a container with alcohol, shake off the extra alcohol back into the cup, and then dip the very lightly coated spoon onto the top bubbles in the mold, including corners. It pops the bubbles, but also using the spoon helps you direct the alcohol a little bit better to the bubbles you really want to pop.
