Hi there Suayres, thanks for the comment. Once cured, our resin has becomes an inert synthetic mass that will last for many decades. Your artwork will outlive us all ! -)
Ya I also find that the more resin you use, the happier you are with the results. Gets pricey, but definitely worth it in the end to be generous with your pour.
Hey Michael, thanks for the shout from across the pond !...when the two parts are mixed the resin is self-levelling and free-flowing... so you can paint or brush it on without the need for any solvent to thin it down....
Hi Kristal, thanks for the comment...the artist used an electric heat gun but you can use either a normal hairdryer ( on slow speed setting ) or a butane blowtorch ( recommended ). Aram
Hi Austyn, thanks for the question. Yes you can use a hairdryer as long as you keep the fan setting on slow so you dont ripple the resin surface. The heat setting should be on maximum to expand the air inside the bubbles causing them to pop. I hope this info helps. -Aram Friedrich ( Eli-Chem Resins Ltd ).
Hi Yahaira, yes for sure, this clear epoxy is commonly used in your application. Quite often customers brush a thin layer of resin over the flower to stiffen and seal the petals before adding a thicker layer to embed or encapsulate them in jewellery / paperweight uses.
Hi Chris, the artists in the video paints on wood and mdf board, but most of our customers work on canvas. Yes, the resin is designed to be poured on canvas to give a smooth, glossy finish to your artwork. You can see more photos and info, as well as order online from our website : Eli-Chem Resins
Hi Edyta, thanks for the message. Yes you can apply a thin coat to the edges by brush to achieve a drip-free finish. The brush coating will be thin enough to prevent streaks and running of the resin. All sizes and kit prices can be seen here on our website. Just go to our website ( the link is contained at the end of the video ), then "Products", then " General Purpose Clear Epoxy Resin ". You can order online for worldwide shipping and delivery within a maximum of 3-4 days. Thanks, Aram
Hi Dave, thanks for the feedback. I had a look at the at the resin they offer, it is not possible to say if it is the same as ours since they do not disclose a technical datasheet. In addition, they are not a resin manufacturer, they seem to be a wholesale/retail outlet, whereas we are a resin formulator, blender and producer. Our material is a UV stable, two-component epoxy Hybrid.
Hi John, most customers line the floor with plastic sheeting, then leave the resin drops to dry and recover them for use in different artwork e.g 3D collage pieces etc.
Hi Tracy, thanks for the enquiry. Your area is approx. 1.1 sq.m. To coat your painting 2-3mm thick will require approx. 1.5 litres of resin. If you want to look for the resin in art supply stores ( difficult to find ! ) then you should be asking for a low viscosity, UV stabilised, Polymer hybrid ( epoxy ). Alternatively you can order online from our site ( depending on your location ). -Aram
Hi Anne, thanks for your message. Yes the epoxy will adhere to glass ( as long as it is clean and perfectly dry ). Once cured the material is 100% transparent and optically clear. Would you still want to tint it ?...if so we have a full range of solid colour and translucent colour pigments...or our exciting new Eli-Glow Luminescent Pigments...all details and prices are available on the Eli-Chem Resins website !
The epoxy will bond well to metallic surfaces so you wont have a problem applying it to the outside of the cylinders..the preferred application method is to pour a small amount then spread by brush...keep rotating the cylinder in stages and repeat. I hope this helps !
Yes this resin is suitable for covering posters on a table-top. No it would not smear or damage your print as long as the ink is fully dry before you add the resin.
Hi there Shimacandy, Thanks for the message. Yes, you can apply the resin onto canvas, the paintings you see in the video clip are also done on canvas. Regards, Aram ( Eli-Chem Resins )
Hi PureHeart, the environment where that artist works is dust-proofed, so any specks you see are pinhole air bubbles that can easily be removed by passing warm air over the surface. If any specks of dust do land in the artwork coating, they should be manually removed before resin gellation, any dimples left behind can be back-filled with a small quantity of mixed resin afterwards.
Thanks Julie, yes you can apply it on to the fabric, but you should take it off the wall first and lay it horizontally. The resin will stop dripping in approx. 4 hrs after mixing.
Yes it sets hard like plastic after approx. 8-10 hours and is fully resistant to fresh water and salt water immersion. It is ideal for lures as it can be cast optically clear, as well as pigmented with solid or translucent colours.
Hi there Terramar, thanks for the message. The resin is UV stabilised, therefore the process of fading and discolouring ( UV degradation ) is slowed down, but ultimately over a number of years all clear resins left outside will discolour.
Hi Erik, Thanks for the enquiry. Once our resin has cured fully it is inert and safe for chairs and tables. Yes, you can safely eat on a resined table.
Hi Tadeyishu, Yes you can use the resin on fabric. I am not sure on the reaction with dyes will be, this will depend on what substance the dye is made of. Individual tests are recommended.
Hola, gracias por su mensaje. Hola Camilo...No es ningún problema para enviar a Chile, lo hacemos ya con mensajería UPS y DHL empresas. El producto no está clasificado como peligroso para carga aérea. Saludos, Aram
The yellow tint you get with their polyesters is due to there being no UV blocker formulated into the polyol ( resin part ), it has nothing to do with the peroxide catalyst. The 1% catalyst ratio is on the low side. We also supply glass-clear polyester resins but never recommend less than 2-3% ratio. You could try an over-coat of our General Purpose Clear Epoxy which will offer a solid surface finish but the polyester would still stay uncured below....worth a try for a quick-fix though.
Hi Jeff, thanks for the message. For a 1sq.m painting you will need 0.5kg ( 500g ) of our clear resin. This is based on 1 poured layer left to self-level under gravity.
For sure....we do small tester kits which are an inexpensive and ideal way to do trials. You will find all info on the Eli-Chem Resins website, under "Products" then "General Purpose Clear Epoxy Resin".
Hi Lorna, thanks for the message. Let me explain our carriage charges. Our resins cannot be sent through the postal service because they are chemical liquids. As a result we only use a Hazchem-approved courier service, which is FedEx. We charge customers what we pay to FedEx for their excellent service. it is prompt, trace-able, reliable and very rarely do we experience damages or spillages. For this peace of mind we are prepared to pay more to get our products to the end-user in the condition and time-frame they expect and deserve. Regards, Aram Friedrich ( Managing Director ).
Well actually I dont waste anything !!... for two reasons : 1) Its not me doing the pouring, its one of our artist customers, and 2) He purposely creates the dripping effect down the side and "teardrop" appearance at the bottom because that is what sets him apart from other artists and his clients love it. The spilt resin is collected on plastic sheets on the floor, then once cured the shards are used to create other pieces of art...therefore no resin is wasted, it's all used !.
Hi there, Yes you can cover them safely without stretching the canvas substrate. The resin is unfilled and therefore has a density of 1.05 g/cm3, this means that the sealing layer will be too light to place the canvas under any mechanical load. Regards, Eli-Chem
The only air bubbles are created from hand-mixing, and are easily removed by passing warm air over the resin to leave the surface smooth and glassy. Currently we don't have a U.S distributor but are shipping direct from the U.K to artists and users over there.
types of tape borders... can release sprays or even spray soap or rub wax on edges of things ... make the resin not adhere. I guess i would like to make huge resin shapes... lay on tinfoil or plastic lids and make a border with an old garden hose. then when dry. lift up the resin shape and use it in my art. crazy to follow this.. but hey im an artist. thankyou
Hi there, you will need the resin and hardener as it is a two-component system. The resin is perfectly transparent when mixed with the hardener, the purplish tint you see in the resin is refraction of light through the UV-resistant filler. Yes, you can pain tit on by brush or roller. The resin needs to cure completely ( at least 2 days ) before bringing the fish into contact with it. For any other questions, please email me : aram@elichem.co.uk
Don't be concerned...the artist has an ingenious method of collecting the spilt resin which has mixed with paint and hardened into thin resin shards. He recovers the multicoloured shards and mounts them as a stunning 3D sunburst...nothing goes to waste !. I can email you photos of the resin shard artwork if you like. Aram
Hi Jake, thanks for the comments...yes it will bond to concrete. Epoxy formulations have excellent bond-strength to rigid substrates like concrete, metals, glass etc. For more info on the resin you are looking for, just email me with details of the application...aram@elichem.co.uk Thanks, Aram
Hi there...not this one, but we have a slightly different version which is designed for block castings and can be machined with a lathe after full cure. Details can be found on the Eli-Chem Resins website. From the home page, click on "Products" then " Clear Epoxy Rigid Resin". Regards, Aram
love the look,can i paint the resin onto fabric that is already on a wall?,and how long do you think it would take for the resin to stop dripping,thanks,
Hi Sue, thanks for the message. As you have not used our resin it is difficult to diagnose the issue you are having with another supplier's material. The stickiness should not last this long, either the mix ratio is incorrect, or your mixing time was too short. Did they give you an unaccelerated resin combination ? that requires post-curing under heat. You should speak to the supplier'stechnical dept. to resolve the problem with you. I look forward to getting you converted to our resins !.
is this user friendly for example if i want to paint a table and chairs can i sit on them with any problems and more important can i put food and eat over a covered and painted table with this? what should i consider and care of? thanks
Hello Aram, Such an exciting product - I'm so eager to experiment. Since someone asked about putting it on the wall of a fish tank, am I correct to presume it can be used and will adhere well to a sheet of glass. I have in mind doing something which takes advantage of the transparency - or, hopefully, translucency, if I can find the proper tinting agents. Do you have suggestions for tinting? Thanks
Hi Aram. It would be nice if you'd post the link here so one doesn't have to get to the end of the video to see it briefly. Just a thought. I really like what I see. Thanks for the quick response to my questions. ~edyta
How long does it take for the resin on your paintings to set? I used clear resin for the first time yesterday. I mixed as per instructions and painted it over only part of an acrylic painting (on stretched canvas) but it is sill sticky...can you say what I have done wrong...or mainly how I can fix it...can I spray it with something...? I am now going to order from elichem! Love you artwork! Love the tune.
cool thanks! love this stuff. I found a big FAQ for artists and this stuff at the artresin website. is this the same stuff?? seems similar. Its nice when artist share their secrets.
Say the canvas is it glued to a wood flat frame in the back? Cause I am thinking with all that weight from the epoxy it might, after drying, break, if you move the painting? Thank You very much for the tips.
Hi! Nice work Aram! I just have a question about the amount of resin you use cause It seemed to me that you use quite a lot. Do you prefer to do it this way or is it necessary to use this much?
im thinking the same , my paintings are 1800mm by 900mm and I would love to resin them, but there so big for resin... will I have to put something on the back of it to stop the resin from cracking ??????
Hi, I did a mural with acrylic art paint on the top of a wooden bar countertop. Do you know the best product I should use to coat this that won't hurt the painting & will be durable & clear & shiny? It was done for a bar in town that has an upper & lower outside deck. The bar I painted is on the lower deck, so it's outside but has a roof over it from the upper deck.
Is the butane blowtorch preferred to a 2000w hot air gun. I have noticed both alternatives being used in various instruction videos on TH-cam. thx , Jeff
They specifically said it had to be over 1% but under 2% otherwise it may dry with a yellow tint... Could I correct it by putting some of your resin over? Or would it still stay soft and tacky underneath?
Hello, I am thinking about creating pressed rose petal jewelry and I was wondering if I can use a paintbrush and clear epoxy resin to preserve/harden it. Will that work?

Hi, it works on canvas photos as well. The epoxy will coat gel and water colours.
Yes I "liked" your page..lovely painting.
There's every chance you wont need to scrape it off and can cast a sealing layer of epoxy to protect it.
Yes you can...its a common application....

it's great ! and it's looks more perfect than varnish
is that Eboxy available in Egypt ?
hi i love what you do here can you please tell me if u can work on a canvas or does it have to be a hard surface thank you.
Yes you can....we are currently working on a nightclub project in London covering thousands of new coins on a dancefloor area...
is this user friendly for example if i want to paint a table and chairs can i sit on them with any problems and more important can i put food and eat over a covered and painted table with this? what should i consider and care of? thanks
Cracking is not a problem unless it comes under mechanical load or impact. Prices depend on kit size and quantity ordered.
Love the look of resin coated art! I'm curious as to what heat gun you used to pop the bubbles? I've never seen the one you used before.

I am just about to place an order with you so just to make sure....it is the General not the Glass Clear I need? Thanx
Good to hear that....do you have a website showing your work ?
Can I use a hair dryer on high setting instead of a costly heat gun to get the air bubbles out?
cool thanks! love this stuff. I found a big FAQ for artists and this stuff at the artresin website. is this the same stuff?? seems similar. Its nice when artist share their secrets.
Say the canvas is it glued to a wood flat frame in the back? Cause I am thinking with all that weight from the epoxy it might, after drying, break, if you move the painting?

Yes Melodie, we are based in the U.K... Eli-Chem Resins Ltd
thank you for the reply.
What is it you're painting on? Can I poor this on canvas to make the canvas shine and give it a clear coat like you did?
im thinking the same , my paintings are 1800mm by 900mm and I would love to resin them, but there so big for resin... will I have to put something on the back of it to stop the resin from cracking ??????
I am going to try this stuff with my canvas printing company
Hi, I did a mural with acrylic art paint on the top of a wooden bar countertop. Do you know the best product I should use to coat this that won't hurt the painting & will be durable & clear & shiny?
It was done for a bar in town that has an upper & lower outside deck. The bar I painted is on the lower deck, so it's outside but has a roof over it from the upper deck.
What is the life-expectancy (for want of a better term) of this product? That is, how long would an artwork made of or with it, last?
quite cool
Agreed.....was it you that placed an online order today ?
Is the butane blowtorch preferred to a 2000w hot air gun. I have noticed both alternatives being used in various instruction videos on TH-cam.
thx , Jeff
They specifically said it had to be over 1% but under 2% otherwise it may dry with a yellow tint...
Could I correct it by putting some of your resin over? Or would it still stay soft and tacky underneath?
Hello, I am thinking about creating pressed rose petal jewelry and I was wondering if I can use a paintbrush and clear epoxy resin to preserve/harden it. Will that work?
Hy i got some questions ;-) (i want to put some epoxy on my DIY background for my aquarium...)
1) Do you just use the epoxy resin? No hardener?
2)Does the purple color get transparant when it dries?
3)Can i just aply it with a paintbrush to my background ?
Thanks!
Thank you!
Thanks Russ...just contact us at Eli-Chem Resins for ordering info.
The correct resin is our General Purpose Clear Epoxy Resin.
Aram
This depends on the thickness it is applied over that area. Basically the resin weighs 1kg for every litre you apply. If you give me the dimensions of your painting ( or artwork ) I can calculate the increase in weight.
Thx for upload. Could I pour this over a printed piece of art work that's glued to a wood panel?
Hi adam. I love your work! Do you have a gallery? I live in Surrey. And also was wondering about the prices of the epoxy? Thanks
fantástico, gran ayuda :3
