Resin Art cells - the easy way.

- We get asked a lot by members of our Resin Artists group how to create cells in resin art, specifically using a dirty pour process.
This short video will cover the basics of creating cells in resin art using resin, pigments and resi-blast only.
No silicone required, no solvents required, no alcohols required, no heat required, no pouring medium required, and ( in my case ) no talent required !.
This technique leaves the resin surface smooth, glossy and shiny.
No dimples, no craters, no residue.
Products used :
MasterCast 1-2-1 Clear artwork Resin
Resi-Blast dispersion Media
4 x Resi-Tint polymer pigments ( Black, Light Grey, Dark Grey and White ).
Happy Art !.
Nice video, nice product and beautiful song birds in the background.
Seriously, I appreciate this video so much. Straight to the point, showing products used, no filler, and beautiful pour. Really well done!
Wow. I’ve never watched a tutorial by you; this is my first. I love your style. No chit chat, no endless bantering, just content. FABULOUS. I will be subscribing for sure. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Great teaching style.
I have to admit this is one of the best videos I've seen. Not too much talking, only needed facts and a seriously good result! Well done!
standvertical Agree 👌🏻
standvertical I agree☺️
Brilliant thank you...I have never attempted any art before. I love all pouring art but by far resin is the best.
Thanks Sally, thats very kind.
This is my favorite video. So excited you contacted Annemarie thank you. You better get ready as you going to be flooded with orders.
That was one of the most attractive results I have seen. Extremely well done, thank you for sharing.
I really should try this , I do it the acrylic pouring medium method then resin coat, but this has such nice results.
Great tutorial. Just started experimenting with fluid dirty pours. I am in the USA but born and raised in Johannesburg.
brilliant vid. no waffle just straight to it. Lovely cells!
wow... thanks for sharing your wonderful technique.. it's just beautiful
WOW!! I want this product!! I would like to see a project that has dried. I want to do this to the countertops in the garage with EXACTLY these colors!! We have Harley's and this would be KICK BUTT!! Nice nice clip!!
Thanks Faith, I cant upload a photo of it here but if you message me ( aram@elichem.co.uk ) I'll send it you by email.
Thank you for responding, art resin is what I've been using
In the soap makers community we call this an 'in the pot' swirl! Many parallels here, although soap has to cure a lot longer.
Great tutorial. Really appreciate it. Going to try resin on my next project in place of ova glue and acrylic paint and silicone.
Thank you for this video! Absolutely stunning!
Thank you. Great demo.
Fantastic. The finished piece is so dramatic. Thanks for sharing - excellent video. DEB T
Very well done, it's beautiful.
Thanks for this video! One of the best as far as thorough information & a great tutorial 👍🏻 in my opinion, however, you did swirl/mix it a bit too much right before pouring. With the way that you combined the colours in the cup (a bit at a time) you really didn't need more than a quick 1-2 "swirls" IF even any at all
Very informative! Thank you! But also I cried a little when he didn't scape out the color cups 😅
Great video, thank you! Also great to hear a fellow saffer accent :)
nice and easy. loved it
Thanks Becky - much appreciated.
Not a problem, we ship to Cyprus all the time. Just drop us an email to sales@elichem.co.uk
Great Video, really instructive, might even have to have a go at this.
That would be good ! - go for it !...
brilliant kind regards Sandra
Really beautiful
Thank you Rachel - very kind.
FABULOUS!!!!!
I love these cells you got in this one! I think using both white and black really helps get that fine webbing type of cells. The one I saw on the live stream with several blues didn't get as much definition as this one did. I just subscribed! Very interested in this, as I make jewelry and I think resin could really add depth to pouring on my wood pieces.
I love watching this type of art; I think it's so cool how it's made and just how it looks overall. But I personally don't want to try to do it. I get so attached to how the colors blend to it that when it mixes or blends too much, I get all sad, haha. The galaxy looked so pretty and then it turns into more cell-y like when it spreads across the board thingy.
Fantastic Aram. Thankyou
That is talent!! Who says you don't have any. :P Thank you for this tutorial! :) Looking at buying Resiblast in Australia. So expensive! lol
thanks for sharing.
That is very beautiful#
The best I have seen so far. The very best
Thanks Joyce, much appreciated.
Wow that was amazing to watch - many thanks. Only problem is how do I get these supplies in Cyprus???????
Thank you.
Great video. Dankie Aram.. Are those SA birds in the background?
Dis 'n plesier Vincent...maar hulle is engelse voels !!...
Thank you soooo much!
With certain brands the white actually weighs more so if you put it in last it will sink to the bottom of your picture once poured making cells. I do not know if that works with your brand and resin but with golden colors and liquidated pouring medium it does. Go by wt. of colors.
Hi Patti, this doesn't happen with our resin and resi-tint pigment range. All colours behave the same way with comparable densities - this makes the result predictable to a larger degree.
Bravo, magnifique 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
thank you , this method is excellent , thank you for sharing it, also I seen on TH-cam somebody just use spray paint or something, not sure what was it, and he achieved very nice effect as well , but I could't figure out what actually was in this bottle, any suggestion ?
It looks fantastic. I notice that you haven't torched the resin. Is torching necessary to get rid of air bubbles?
Any suppliers in your home town Jozi? The accent is undeniable :)
Great video Aram..I am an Arizona artist considering to approach this medium as part of my creative process. Any suggestion where to find the supply here in the States , or you can list the specifics on each component needed to make it work.
Thanks Pal !
Amazing work! but can I use silicon oil instead of resi blast
Very pretty. Can I ask a question? What causes dimples in resin when I pour resin over a dried acrylic pour? I mix thoroughly, torch...
Hi Monte, dimples are usually caused by surface tension separation when there is insufficient casting depth, or also by over-heating the surface during bubble removal. Which resin are you using ? MasterCast or totalCAST ? ...
Great instruction! Loved seeing this. Are these products available through Amazon? I’m in Alaska. Are there other shades of pigment? Thanks for this!
I soooo needed this tutorial! After it cures, must you clean it before doing another coat?
Hi. I’m very new to resins. So new I’ve not even started yet😆 I’m currently on hols and plan to start once back. In yr video you say that you can control and stop the cell development when needed. How is this achieved. I.e more or less cells. Thanks. Good art work.
Hi, thanks for the video! Does this resin have UV protection added to it? I’m concerned about yellowing over time. Also, does it have a strong smell? Thanks again. Beautiful piece.
Thans Kitten, Yes it is U.V stabilised to prevent premature yellowing and No there is no smell...our resins are odourless and ASTM-certified as non-toxic and non-hazardous.
THANKYOU
Loved this. Now where do I buy it and does it tell you how much to make for different size canvas? Thank you
The list of country distributors is mentioned in the video description. Where are you based ?.
hi Aram ....fabulous product.....congratulation....I live in Greece ..how i can have your products????
Great video and magnificent cells! What is the working time with the mastercast?
Thank you. The pot life of MasterCast 1-2-1 is 30-45 mins at 20deg.C ( based on a mixed mass of 500g ).
Oh just love it great video
I am also jhb based. Could you please tell me where i am able to purchase resin i have been looking
my Mastercast is not flowing so well, it's quite thick. Do you use any thinners?
Hi there, this is due to storage at low temperatures. Simply pre-warm the resin component and you will notice it becomes clear and runny very quickly again. Do not use a solvent or thinners as this will affect the resin's performance and make it flammable.
how do I prewarm it? Put the containers in a water-bath? Which temperature should the water have? Thx
Yes you can immerse the resin container in hot water around 40-50 Deg.C, alternatively place it near a radiator and periodically shake / stir to allow the heat to circulate evenly.
Carl you said that you can stop the pattern when you want how do you do that as I have found when you leave your work it changes as it still keeps moving while waiting to set
thanks for the vid. you didn't explain how to stop the cell development.
No final result! Need to see it after it's cured to see how smooth it comes out.....I'm thinking.no way!!!
I'm thinking Yes way !... I can email pics of the final result to you if you provide your email address...
Awesome
How do you clean your pouring cup and any other tools used?
Hi Edie, thanks for the question. If you leave MasterCast to set overnight in the cup then you can peel it out the next day ( it doesn't stick to plastic surfaces ). This is the easiest and cleanest way.
Hi, Any advice on how to make resin cells in a cast (not a pour)? thank you
I tried resi blast but not a huge success so far. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?
Hi Lia, cell structure only works in very thin surface layers and not in deep pours.
Hi Aram. I am based in Johannesburg. Do you supply MasterCast and Resiblast?
Yes we do, you can source it direct from Elite Chemical Industries in Alrode. Tel : 864 4620. Speak to Asgar.
I just checked the website for the dealer in Ontario Canada, and they are out of stock of almost all the things I want to buy. Very frustrating. They only have available a few colors of the pigment, no resi-blast. So much for ordering anything.
Yes the high demand has caught them short on stock. More has been shipped so is en-route to them.
Hello! Thank you for this video! Where can I get your product in Czech Republic? Maybe its possible to order from some internet shop? Thank you!
Dobriden Julie, for the Czech Republic you can order from the main European webshop based in the U.K.: www.elichem.co.uk
What do you mean by , you can control and stop it at any time?
Yes, by mixing and waiting for it to pre-gel ( 15-20mins with MasterCast 1-2-1 ) and pouring afterwards.
Hi, what base is it you use for the piece? Wood or a paint canvas? I can’t work it out
Hi Lordi, its done on a small round canvas.
What could be my alternative if I dont have resiblast?
Do you sell in Canada specifically Vancouver
Is the surface smooth or does the Resiblast cause pitting??
hello. I used regular acrylic paint and it caused a chemical reaction and started to foam
This is very nice where can I buy some of this stuff
That depends where you are located. We are based in the U.K. But have many international stockists..
Where can I purchase the Resi-Blast & Resi-Tint in the US.
Thanks so much
Hi Rose, our Resi-Blast, Resi-Metal and MasterCast 1-2-1 resin stockist in the U.S is www.resinobsession.com
Adam can you use silicone instead of resiblast?
Hi Joanne, Silicone is not an ideal replacement as it leaves a residue and is impossible to clean off the surface. Resi-Blast was developed especially for use with polymer resins and pigments. It has recently been ASTM certified as non-toxic and non-haz.
What kind of board did he use to pour on? I'm in the U.S. and have no idea what to use to create resin art on
Hi Brandon, this was done on a round canvas.
Okay thanks! I'll have to look for one of those
You can use any shape, though!
Superb! Do you ship to Canada?
Hi Ari, we have a stockist in Canada for this material. Please check out www.resinworks.ca
Thank you! I will make an order today :) :) :)
Hi Adam im in Krugersdorp where do i buy those products please
Yes we do, you can source it direct from Elite Chemical Industries in Alrode. Tel : 864 4620. Speak to Asgar..
thank you
I love it :-))
could you possibly give me an idea of the price Adam ?
All our prices are on www.elichem.co.uk
Are you from South Africa by any chance ?
Yaaa, Raised in Jozi.
Can you please tell me what is the size of your board and the quantity of resin you used thanks
This was a 30cm diameter round canvas and we used 400g of mixed resin.
read the instructions of the resin you use, most will list something like 5 ounces per square foot
Can I buy the resin blast anywhere in Australia?
Hi Christine, Yes you can order it from our Australian stockist here : www.resinit.com.au
Hi aram. What if i dont have resiblast. We dont have them in my country. I have clear laminatimg epoxy resin, liquitex pouring medium and silicone oil 1000cst. Im not sure if this works. Hope to get your recommendation. I have a wooden pannel to work on.
Hi Therese, Resi-Blast is sent to 80 countries around the world. Where are you located ?.
@@007rastas Philippines. in Asia :)
@@thereseyuquimpo7581 Thanks, we ship Resi-Blast there all the time. Just send your details to sales@elichem.co.uk and we will reply with a quote.
Oh thats cool! Thank u!
thanks for the video. how do you clean your cup of resin after?
No need to use a cleaner, the resin doesn't stick to plastic containers so after it has cured you just pull it out of the container as a skin.
