Epoxy art resin is a two part liquid substance made by mixing a resin and a hardener in equal or specific ratios. Once combined, the mixture undergoes a chemical reaction called curing, which turns it into a solid clear glossy finish. This resin is commonly used in art and craft projects for coating surfaces, embedding objects, or creating abstract designs.
