- #235. You Can MELT This Resin MOLD Over And Over AGAIN!
In todays Resin Art video we try something commonly known as Resin Clay! It may have been around for a long time but this is my first experience of using this stuff!
In this episode, we try the clay to see if we can create molds for resin use, that is, after all, what this stuff is made for.... mold making! I wanted to test with both UV resin and epoxy and I'm very happy with both, I think an inlay video is definitely needed! I have some crazy ideas already!
I'm blown away by how easy this stuff is to use and how fast you can make things with it, especially for us resin artists! We can essentially make duplicates of certain resin molds and never need to buy a new one again.... Ever!
Please use safely as hot water is required!

I thought it was wiiiily interesting🤪 I’m definitely gonna use this stuff in class with the kids 👏👏👏💕💕
😂😂😂 My words just wouldn't come out right. Have fun creating 😁😁
I wonder if that film is the marks from the glitter in the putty? Be interesting to see the difference with the putty that's just plain see through with no glitter
Your brain going a million miles an hour makes me feel better about mine doing that 😂 you do a great job explaining it, I'm still learning ❤
Full speed ahead! 😂🥰
You might like something called the Amazing Re-Melt. It's a microwaveable mold that turns into a liquid after being popped into the micorwave. It's got a much more viscous consistency compared to plastic clay and since it pours when melted like rubber silicone, you can get more fine details or even make two part molds if needed.
Only issue is that it's not vert taut when cooled, so the mold can deform after a few casts, but you can always melt it down again.
Yes, I contacted a well known company but they didn't want me to promote their product, very strange, makes me wonder what they are hiding 😂 Apparently many of those types are limited to a certain amount of uses.
Daniel, could the "film" possibly be micro fibers from the paper towel used to dry the mold material? Perhaps try using a lint free cloth for the drying next time and see if it makes a difference.
That was my thought exactly, I have used these many times without the flaws but I don't use a paper towel.
Yes, totally, I will try and rule this out soon 😁
Wow, thx for experimenting with this material! It will be a game-changer for me because mold-making silicone is ridiculously expensive. I can’t wait to finally be able to cast some items of mine. You’re the BEST!
Thank you 😊 🙏
That bunny is adorable! So many possibilities with that stuff.
100% 😁 Inlays are gonna be epic! 😍🤩 Will film that soon 😁
Little late watching this - don’t know how I missed this one - this is great to know - thank you
There is a company that makes re-usable silicone putty as well as normal silicone..it is called Composimold.
hmm, interesting ideas! I look forward to your experiments. how about dropping the melty-stuff in a plastic bag, or one of those really thin cheap mixing cups and then into the hot water? no drying it off and risking water getting into it.
Great idea, will try soon, thank you 😊
Hi! I think the stuff you're seeing on the surface of the resin is lint from the paper towel getting stuck on the clay. If you use something else to dry it you might be in business!
Very possible, will try and see for next update 😁
I'm only part way through the video but want to comment in case I forget. That Oyumaru thermoplastic will grab fibre from the paper towel you're using. I've had that happen so that might affect the finish.
Will definitely rule this out incase that was the issue 😁
@@daniel..cooper I dont know what might be a good option for an alternative to get rid of the surface moisture? Maybe compressed air?
Daniel you need to go to Tea and Art and watch here clear resin clay video. I am interested to see how you would use it. I believe this is used by nail artists but ohhh the possibilities. New facet in the resin world.
Yes, builder gel is great, may try soon Kim 😁
Just ordered the clear! Thanks for the link. Amazon is out of the colored, probably because of your first video😮
Awesome, yes, possibly, I did add some links for smaller colored sets and larger ones but they may have sold out too, clear is fine, color isn't really needed if making molds 🥰
It kind of looks like it's capturing the texture of your gloves and that's why it's not coming out so clear I don't know though just what I thought I could see I could be wrong. Also maybe if you put it on something cold when you put the resin in there to help with that thermal reaction to not melt it maybe that would work too.
Ok, now I'm tempted to try this, too. Mold silicone is so expensive to usd for something you're not necessarily planning on using a hundred times, and this could be the answer. I still think this isn't far from hot glue, but since I'm yet to try putting my glue sticks in hot water, I can't prove myself wrong or right. Either way, your experiments are fascinating and inspiring.
Please update us when you try 😁
Def would like to see how it works as an inlay material please?
It's so cool
Coming soon 😁😁
I just love you! And your channel!
Thanks so much 😊 🥰
There is a product I use called, ComposiMold…. It’s reusable…. Melt it down in the microwave, pour it like silicone…. Cast your item, melt it down and reuse it… they have food safe product as well! super cool,stuff!
Yes, apparently you can only use that stuff a limited amount of times though.
@@daniel..cooper I’ve been using it for well over a year now and haven’t had a single problem with it :) I use it to make a blank the. I use that blank to make a permanent mold with silicone…
@@ZippedUpKitzwill definitely try that. oyumaru is nice but it has its limits
@@shitalya1 let me how it works for you… they have two,different types… one melts down into a liquid… the other into a putty like substance….i use both….
@@ZippedUpKitz I will go for the liquid one first. I made final fantasy 'job crystals' and 'convocation crystals' and did a pre mold for each of them to optimise the final result. it doesn't turned out as good as I hoped with oyumaru but using real silicone would have been to expensive.
I'm really happy that there is an alternative to it. it would make things so much easier!
Just stumbled on your channel Daniel, some cool stuff. I did have a concern about you using a tissue to dry with. It’s renowned for dropping fibres and it may be why your mould made with the glass had all those tiny marks on it in removal. Try using a hair dryer or heat blower on low perhaps? Roll it super flat? Just throwing ideas out there. I think I’m gonna get some and have a go as there’s all sorts of applications I can see for it. Thanks for posting.
Yes, I'm learning as I go 😁 Comments from viewers help is learn together 🥰🥰
I am going to try this tmw😍
🥰 have fun Sarah 😁😁
@@daniel..cooper thank you, I will 🤩
You can use a spritz of rubbing alcohol to pop bubbles without heat
I really have learnt so much from your videos! I am relatively new to resin craft, and am looking forward to using this stuff! Thanks Dan! 😊
I bought Green Stuffs version years ago and then forgot what I bought it for. Now I have several new ideas!
You are what keeps the resin making business going and going! You take it to higher levels and I love all your videos!! You rock! Keep rocking on as we all learn from you . Amazing video you made!! Thank you so very much
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰
I knew it!! This was on my mind when I saw your first video on this product. I had a feeling this could be used as a mold and you did it!! Your the bestest 😀
Thanks Fran 😊 🫂
I can't wait to try this with my stamps. According to Claire's crafty corner, putting stamps inside resin is risky because it rips. But this is a great alternative.
Yes, this will be a much better alternative 😁
Great tutorial... Great results..
Don't know if this is helpful but I put a tiny light coating of oil in the mould before I use it..
❤😊
Thanks Cheryl 😊 🫂
fantastic
Cool experiment
Thanks Gerri 😊 🫂
It was fun to sit back and listen to all of the ideas as they popped up in your mind
I can't wait to see more, I'm watching this video again.
Thanks so much 😊 🫂
Oh this is exciting!
Amazing! Thank you Daniel!👍☺️🇬🇧
😁😁😁
More mind blowing experiments. Love the rabbit charm. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Wendy 😊 🫂
❤ thank you Daniel
That's great! This would absolutely be wonderful to use with air dry clay, too!
Using it to make molds is genius. It would be great for this cameo I have and want to make a mold of.
😁😁😁 hope it works Vicky
I've seen this in Micheal's stores here and they used UV resin with it. It was demostrated by a company rep that makes it. Real cool product, they didn't have any coloured.
It's great stuff 😁
Ooh yes please to the inlay's please Daniel
Coming soon 😁
Hi Daniel , have you tried mixing different colours? I watched your 1st video with this new stuff and I am waiting for it to arrive 😊 also just to say you and your videos are brilliant. Thanks and bfn
Not yet but will work 😁
I have referred a bunch of people to your channel. They hadn't heard of you but they said they would also pass your channel along to others. You are brilliamt!!
Thanks so much Kim 😊 🙏
I wonder when you dried that clear stuff with a paper towel after you warmed it up if that's what got stuck in that clear cavachon😊😊
Yes, very possible 😁
Try a spritz of isopropyl alcohol for the bubbles maybe?🤗
😁😁
That's wild! ✌️❤️🤣 peace, love and happiness
Thank you 😊 🙏
Wowser!!! Once again you have totally blown me away!!!❤
Thank you 😊
Awesome! Would love to see inlays! Thanks for sharing!
The white pellets I've used for oven baked clay. Wait till it's going white but still pliable, remove from oject carefully to keep the shape before it hardens completely, push clay into & bake. It will melt off during the process into it's tacky clear state 👍
Thank you 😊 🙏
@@daniel..cooper you are welcome 🙂
Isn't Amber a type of resin? I think it's tree resin that solidified a long time ago. I could be wrong, I frequently am 😅
Sure is 😊😁
I really like this for creating the molds. I’m going to get some and give it a try! Thank you!
Works really well love it
Thanks Kim 😊 🫂
Tons of possibilities. Love it. 😊
Thanks Bob 😊 100% 😁😁
Your gloves are textured, do you think that has an effect on the plastic when you press it? Maybe try some smooth gloves and see how it does. 😊
Possibly, will try and rule that out 😁
Very cool!
I think that was a brilliant video!
Thanks Lizzy 😊 🫂
Wow that stuff is Amazing 😮😮
Totally 😁🥰
J adore tes nouvelles tentatives 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much 😊 🙏
Great stuff Daniel! Another successful experiment. Thank you! ❤
Thanks Siobhan 😊 🫂
Exciting. Thanks for sharing your tutorials, experiments. Always a pleasure ❤❤
Thanks Maddie 😊 🫂
💜, gran idea
I absolutely love your curiosity! It's really given me some amazing ideas Thank you for all you do!
You are so welcome! Thank you 😊
Question for you Daniel,
If you used that stuff for making moulds, wouldn't the mould start to deform when the resin starts to cure as resin heats up quite a bit when it starts going through the heat cycle,
I paused the video 2mins in to ask you my question,
You'll probably answer it in the video before the end, & that will teach me for not watching first then ask the
Questions. 🤔
😂😂😁😁😁
Hi Daniel great video this stuff looks so cool, thanks for sharing ❤ xx
great idee
Thanks 😊 Has been done but had to try myself 😁🥰
cannot get this resin on Amazon all sold out. what a shame looks fun.
I use it to help make miniatures, just so handy to have in the craft stash. Good tutorial 👍
100%, soooooo handy 😁 So many uses for this! 🤩
Very fun!
Thanks Wendy 😊
Maybe the film comes from your glove when you touch the green silicone? As the glove not smooth?
Possible, will try and rule that out 😁
I am a clay jewelry artist and I think this would be good for clay mold
100% and Silver clay 😁
Me and all the table top gamers and miniature painters have been using this stuff for ages. I have some in my room right not I took a mold of a head fit an action figure custom.
😁😁😁
Hello Dan! xx 🎉
Hi Fran 👋 👋
Did the paper towel leave tiny fibers behind when drying the clay?
Ok, that is cool! You used glass and rubber, what about a metal? Will the original demold from the silicone? Thanks
100% 😁😁 This will mold anything solid 😁
❤
🥰
Very interesting. 🤗
😁😁🥰
Dan was the marks or film you called it caused by the imprint of your gloves when u pushed the molding resin flat?
Sounds like your brain sounds the same as mine when I'm doing something creative: "What if I ... ? Perhaps it would look better if ... ? What would happen if ... ?" The joy of total creative freedom & overthinking stuff 😂
😂😂😂
Dan, when you have put your cabochons etc in the mould. You said put it in cold water to set quicker. Can you put it in the fridge instead?
It's not really necessary as sets within a few minutes 😊
You're kinda ingenious Daniel!! So this is like wax melt 🫠 hmm the film should be removable with heat and some baby wipes or alcohol wipes I would think if you give it a go let me know how it goes I'd love to know if you was to take and heat it with a heat gun to it's melting temp if it would remove that film. It's a wax like film so their has to be a way to remove wax films I'm gonna do some research on that but I do believe a heat gun and an alcohol wipe would remove the film I love that you did this because if we can find a way to keep the film off it could be really good to have. How about spraying the mold with mold release or alcohol or even silicone oil before adding the resin? Just thinking as I go here you definitely have me intrigued ❤❤❤❤🤗
would like to see what it looks like in the pure clear
😁😁😁
Did the film on the bits made, come from indentations from your gloves as you played with it? Just a thought .
Lol Daniel said "put the rabbit it" ......that's what she said😂😂
😂😂😂🤣
9 mins in to this vid you made me chuckle when you were talking about something completely different, I was thinking ill have what ever your smoking 😂😂
😂😂😂
Cool.
😁😁🥰
Maybe if you used lint free pads to dry off the meltable resin. It looks like it has particles from the paper towel in it. But who knows. Thank you for all your experimenting. I think it's so cool
Great idea! 😁😁
The film might also be tiny bits of the mould which have melted during the cure, maybe a blast with a hairdryer and a quick rub of alcohol? Either way great video and cool experiment
If your worried about the mold melting, pop it in the freezer before use.
That could work but could get tiny moisture spots from humidity?
@@daniel..cooper possibly. I'll try it when I get some lol
Wondering if these would permanently or temporarily stick to silicone molds? Would be great if you could use it as temporary dam in a mold where you don't want resin to fliw into.
Not permanently but definitely temporarily 😁
😀
I think the stuff you bought is more geared towards being molded rather than being turned into a mold. 🤔 I know there's a different brand that takes details really well because it was actually created to mostly be used for temporary molds but I can't remember the brand name. 😵💫 I might have to search my YT videos to see if I can find it in with the videos of people who make miniatures because not knowing the name is going to really bug me now. 😅 I think the stuff only comes in one color though. 🤨 My brain is telling me that it was a bright blue or green. 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks for sharing your experiments though. 😁👍 It's interesting to see how it works. I think if you're going to use it as a mold it might be better with the thin, painted layer of UV resin you mentioned, with regular resin or actually best with an epoxy putty. 🤔
I know what you mean, I can help you, it is called silli silicone putty from silli creations in blue or green indeed
@@rosadeboom3961 Thank you! 😁 That would have really kept itching at my brain until I found out. 😅
Hi I recognise that 😅, you are welcome.
Correct me if I’m mistaken but I believe that “film” you’re referring to is an imprint from your textured gloves
Oooh, possibly! I totally didn't even think of that! 😳 It should have gone when I pushed the pieces in though?
Fab video Daniel, my head is whizzing with what else it could be used for. Might treat myself give laser engraving perhaps, fast speed small engraving obviously 😊😊
Thank you 😊 Yes, was thinking this too, I have lasered normal molds so this may work too 😊
Can you please try it with whitemorph? I was going to use it for molds but can’t afford it yet 😬🤣xx
It wouldn't work the same with whitemorph as will be super hard to demold and may bond.
I tried that, doesn't work for the reasons Daniel said.
Bonsoir Daniel 🌺🌸🌺🌸
Good evening Chantal 😁😁
Would the pieces come out without the film on them if you use a mold release spray? :) ty dan!
I need to test this, I will test and update in the next vid I do with it 😁
To combat the film on the resin, would using a tiny amount of mould release spray work? And can you wash the excess spray off after the mould has been finished with so you can reuse over & over again using lukewarm water a little washing up liquid?
Yes, definitely trying this for my next update vid 😁
Hey Daniel! Awesome video, there's no helping it, I'm going to have to buy the clear and have a play. I do like the idea of being able to make my own moulds, it's cheap and reusable, what's not to love? I don't think I'll be making jewellery out of it, but I will try the Uv topcoat that I mentioned on your last video with this stuff, and I am going to get the clear and try colouring it, see what happens! I won't be telling the hubster I'm spending more money, I mean, what happens on youtube, stays on youtube right? 😜
😂😂 secret is safe with me
@@daniel..cooper Hulloooo...the clear stuff arrived tonight, I used your link so I hope you get something out of that! So I weighed it, 70g for £10.99, rounding it up, 16p a stick, not bad at all considering it's reusable. How does that compare to the coloured version? For mould making it doesn't really matter if it's coloured I suppose? Anyhooo...I didn't get away with my secret purchase as hubby took delivery 😆So, sorry not sorry, totally blamed you lol I can't get to play with it until Sunday, but I'm well excited!!
Nice❤
Thanks as always 😊
Can we squeeze several together to make a bigger mold Daniel?
100% 😁
@@daniel..cooper Awesome thanks
@@Aangel452yes you can but the color will turn out ugly at some point. mine is kind of purple-brown now 😂
@@shitalya1 ok cheers
If you used mold release first before pouring in the resin..would it stop that film being left behind. Then just wash mold with warm soapy water before remelting it for another project. Or use a mold wax.
Possibly, will try and update on next vid with this 😁
I have this stuff an I can never seem to get my projects out of it as it goes rock hard so am unable to bend it to get my creation out. :(
Probably a different brand, this brand is soft as you can see 😊
Do you think a heat mat would soften the clay like the water does?
Possibly yes 😁😁😁
A word of warning for UV resin users, don't walk into a hot summer day with semi cured pieces. Near burnt my hand off. So I dropped it on the window sill and it is there. Hee it's never coming off.
🙈🙈🙈🙈
Depends on what your window sill is made out of, if it’s wood, I suggest lindseed oil. It will take some time but it worked great on my wood coffee tables.
It's stone. To be honest It's at the side of the house and I could accidently on purpose put some on an turn it into a feature heee@@CreatingwithWinglessAngel
