UV Resin Series

UV resin typically cures in 2-5 minutes under a UV lamp or direct sunlight, depending on the resin's thickness and the intensity of the UV light. Ensure your resin is fully exposed to UV light for proper curing to avoid soft spots or sticky surfaces.

UV resin is best suited for small-scale projects like jewelry, coasters, and crafts due to its rapid curing time. For larger projects, like tabletops or deep pours, epoxy resin is a better choice since it cures more slowly and allows for thicker pours.

UV resin is ideal for jewelry making due to its quick curing time and crystal-clear finish. It allows for detailed designs, custom molds, and inclusions like flowers or glitter. Plus, it doesn’t require mixing, making it easy to work with for beginners and professionals alike.

To avoid bubbles in UV resin, follow these tips:

Mix carefully—stir the resin gently to avoid introducing air.

Heat the resin slightly to reduce viscosity, making bubbles easier to release.

After pouring, use a heat gun or torch to pop any surface bubbles quickly before curing.

Yes! UV resin can be used for crafting with wood, metal, glass, or plastic. It's excellent for adding a glossy finish to wooden jewelry, metal charms, and embellishments. Ensure the surface is clean and dry for optimal adhesion and curing.

The key difference between UV resin and epoxy resin is the curing process. UV resin cures quickly when exposed to ultraviolet light, while epoxy resin requires a hardener and takes longer to cure. UV resin is perfect for small crafts and quick projects, while epoxy resin is better for larger applications like furniture or deep pours.

For proper curing, ensure that your UV resin is exposed to the right amount of UV light. Use a high-wattage UV lamp or place your project under direct sunlight. The resin should be evenly spread, with no thick layers, as thick pours may not cure completely.

While UV resin can be used outdoors, it requires sunlight to cure. Outdoor projects will need to be in direct sunlight for curing to happen effectively. However, UV resin can yellow over time when exposed to UV rays, so it's better suited for indoor decorative items unless you use a UV-resistant formula.

Yes, UV resin is safe to use when proper precautions are taken. Ensure you’re working in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves to avoid skin contact. If using a UV lamp, follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe usage. Additionally, always use non-toxic UV resin designed for crafting to ensure safety.
