Crystal clear resin is a transparent liquid material used in arts crafts jewelry and industrial applications. It is typically made from two parts a resin and a hardener which are mixed together in equal amounts. When combined they undergo a chemical reaction that causes the mixture to harden into a clear solid. The result is a glossy glasslike finish that is durable and resistant to yellowing when exposed to light.
This type of resin is popular for coating artwork making resin jewelry embedding objects like flowers or insects and creating molds or castings. It is known for its high clarity minimal bubbles and smooth surface. It cures over time and may take several hours to a day to fully harden depending on the brand and conditions like temperature and humidity.
Crystal clear resin should be handled with care using gloves and used in a well ventilated area. It can be sanded polished or tinted with colors once cured.
