If you put a mirror under your mould under the lamp it will cure from both sides which is such a help. If you don’t want to use a mirror turn the mould over and cure from the other side.
That's a great suggestion! Thanks Coyote! ❤️
Thanks for that helpful hint
Saw a double sided up up UV machine.
I've been ordering for months and I've not once been disappointed, love them ❤
Same for me as well! However, lately I'm noticing on my large orders that some items are missing. So be sure to keep track! :)
I practically LIVE on Temu!
Right, Miley?? Even when you don't think that you could possibly need anything else... you find out that you actually do!! haha
Same
Hi resin nut, you have to layer the uv resin, also its good to flip your mould so the light gets right through it and make sure you cure it for a bit longer, it looks great though 😍 thanks for sharing ❤ xx
Thank you, Michelle! ❤️
Cute stuff and it’s always fun to experiment!
Here are some tips: You want to cure for about 2-3 minutes per layer to get a full cure, but definitely keep doing thin layers. Flip the mold over and cure a few minutes from that side as well before unmolding, that’s why you can only do clear molds. 😊 I also cure a few minutes in each side of the finished piece to be 100% sure it’s cured. Even if it feels hard it’s still possible to get contact dermatitis unless it’s completely cured.
I don’t do full pours of UV resin often but it’s great for lots of purposes, particularly gluing things down. It doesn’t like to stick well to epoxy resin so I use it more for tacking things in place to pour epoxy over.
Oh my gosh! Flip the mold over!!! How did I not know how to do that after watching umpteen videos? lol. Thank you so much, I feel like I could do much better now! ❤️
Have been ordering from Temu (in Canada) for the last few months. I have not been disappointment. Highly recommend to be careful and read the measurements (which are on all) so there is no disappointment. I made a mistake and it was my issue not theirs. The quality of everything I have bought is excellent.
Yes, Maeve! Great reminder. I do always look at the measurements, too. Luckily, most vendors will add them to the pictures. But I've had a surprise here and there as well. :)
So,you are a communist supporter? Leave
So have I, and I’m addictive. I’m here in the USA.
YASSSSSSSS 👏🏽 ❤️ TEMU IS EVERYTHING!! EXCELLENT PRODUCTS AND AMAZING PRICES❤❤I'M OBSESSED 😢😅 GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯
A little fish in the astronaut mask would look really cool
oh man!!! I'm so going to try that!!! Thank you!!
You did great! UV resin is awesome to work with and easy once you get the hang of it. Which you are way ahead as far as being a beginner. Can’t wait to see your amazing creations!
Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much, Samiam!! ❤️
Temu just reached the UK too so we're all going crazy ordering over here lol. Great work! neat projects, it did the job in showing us the products, which was the object of the video. The UV resin, basically any sort of depth overheats and is weird. lots of thin layers or - just go for epoxy. I use it a lot and yeh, you do learn how to use it with a lot of trial and error. I actually got it to boil by accident on one of my videos. What you did here did the job for us! Very helpful as we just got Temu over here. And now I need bubble stickers so thanks! This was useful and yeh. UV resin is weird so don;t worry :)
Thank you so much, Mini!! ❤️. I appreciate you.. thank you! I'm so excited for you guys... it's a great site, and I've been super happy. They've never messed up an order.. like ever. I've ordered 100s of items, and they have always done it right. :) The bubbles are fun!! I just ordered the regular resin to try.. :)
I love most molds and extras I’ve gotten from Temu!!! They are actually very affordable….. considering how much stuff is at craft stores!!
I’m just learning about resin stuff and I love it!!!
Cure top side then turn mold over and cure the back!! Use a match or long neck lighter to remove bubbles BEFORE curing
Thank you, Beverlie. 😊
I love all the silicone moulds from Temu. I am hooked!
Me too Susan! 😊
Turn it over under the lamp while in the mold to cure both sides. So cute.❤
Thanks, Denise! I appreciate the tip! Really! I had problems. lol. ❤️
UV resin works great for making small items for like jewelry but coasters will take a lot more uv Resin so it will take a lot longer to cure. Plus on your thicker/bigger molds you may need to turn them upside down to help cure the bottoms. Just a few hints that I hope will help you.
I've been wanting to see how Temu mica powders works thank for the demo on their products they look pretty good.
You did good for never using Temu UV resins before best way to know how something works is get in there and just do it....😊
Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much Un Known! I appreciate your suggestions and support. I feel like I'll be much more confident next time I use it. Thank you! Yes! The chameleon powders are great for $1.59!! :)
Awesome. I buy a lot from Temu
Thanks Vanessa! ❤️. Me too... So much to see!
I was afraid to order thru Temu. The old saying, "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is." Nice to know you actually get the stuff and it works. Thanks for the video. Def layers is best and flip over to get the back. Also if you hit the resin with a heat gun or lighter, it will pop any bubbles. Good luck.🎉
Thanks Brandy! I haven't had any bad luck with Temu yet. I've ordered A LOT from them. :)
I love Temu. I've bought tons of stuff from them.
So many options!!! :)
Thanks for sharing, cute molds ❤
Thank you, Maddie! ❤️
You need to use a long neck lighter to remove the bubbles.good to cute on both sides, and let cool.
Thank you, Bell! ❤️
Thank you for sharing
Thanks Laura. ❤️
Hello…you’re doing great! With UV resin you would need to leave under the lamp for at least 90 seconds the first time, then flip it while still in the mold cure for another minute and the darker your resin is leave just a little longer using the same process. I hope that helps! FYI…I have used the same UV resin bought off Amazon many times and it is great one of my favorites next to Let’s Resin UV resin! Today, I will be receiving my very first order from Temu and am pleased you did this video…I’m so excited now! It’s a haul…40 molds and some inclusions/ stickers etc… thank you…love your videos!! Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you, Z! Yep.. I'm in the several hundred molds, stickers, embellishments, and even kitchen items and LOVE my new flashlight! Haha.
I thought 10 - 30 seconds seemed wayyyy to easy. hahah
Think you should turn it over and do the other side too that’s what I do ❤ hope that helps
Thank you, Becky! I'll be sure to do that next time! ❤️
Put your items on a mirror. I turn my molds upside down to cure the tops too. I stick to jewelry pieces with my uv resin or small pieces. I love your channel sweetheart. You're doing a great job.
Thank you, Ali! :)
Cute! Sometimes, when working with UV in deeper molds like the astronaut, you need to alternate front and back under the lamp. The light will cure through the mold.
Thanks, Sylvia! I'm excited to try it again! :)
Some amazing products you got there love the bubbles and the shell mould letting thing fantastic ❤❤❤
Thank you! ☺️
Wondering why are you only putting it in for a few seconds when you're supposed to put it under the UV lamp for much longer? Is it costing a dollar a second? I find when I follow instructions things go well. When I'm impatient things fail.
Actually, I started out putting under the lights for much longer. It "seemed" to not need that long? Anyway.. I was just experimenting with Temu's UV Resin.. I'm certainly not an expert. :) I guess in this case, people can learn what not to do by mistake. Thank you for watching. :)
Pretty!
Thank you, Wizard! ♡
Those are some great experiments.
Thank you, Rebecca. ❤️. I appreciate you and thank you for watching. :)
I was looking for Temu here in Spain today and I was shopping 🛒 after watching your video....Thanks for the video....I am waiting now for the delivery to Fuerteventura. 👍
Oh, that's great, Sahara! Let me know how you like the products. ❤️
@@resinnut9335 the first order is on they way.🏃♀️..they are so quick....and the second order is in preparation 🤞
Really lovely ❤ x
Thank you so much, Apple! ❤️
I just received mine today , so addictive lol .
Yayyy! That's happy mail for sure! :) It is addictive... I always find things to order. lol
He’s very cute ! You can do the deeper mold when the mold are white but cure it for longer and flip it over and cure the other side for the same amount of time then you should be good
Thank you, Bead! That will help next time! ❤️
I’m telling you what this is very informative I’m learning a lot. Thank you
Glad to hear it! Hey, if you can learn by mistakes! haha. Lots of great helpful comments from this video too. ❤️. Thank you so much for watching!
hi, i was wondering if you use a respirator when making the resin, and how your ventilation works. i just bought some resins from temu as well, but i live in an apartment and i realized late that i would have a hard time to ventilate as properly as i would in a landed house
Hi Anne, If you're using Temu resin I would definitely use a respirator. Not just a mask but at least a half respirator. And not around any pets or young children. I have some from Temu.. small bottles, but I haven't tried it yet. Do you have a window and fan that you can use in your apartment? Good ventilation is really important. Let me know how it all goes! Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@resinnut9335 I don't have any pets or young child in my apartment. unfortunately i don't have a fan or a respirator to do my UV resins properly, so i decided to return them to Temu 🥲 bummed, i was excited to do mini projects without being aware of the consequences
Congrats on Temu contacting you! I’ve checked out their site but, haven’t purchased anything. I’m telling myself that I need to use the molds I have, before I buy anymore!!😆 I’m putting my foot down.. on myself.. well, sort of..😂 you did inspire me to get the puzzle mold, I poured it last wk and I’m really happy with it so, thank you! I hope you get all kinds of free products. I’ve heard some content creators say it takes them more time to film and edit than it does to create. It’s wonderful all that effort is starting to pay off for you, you are doing a great job with your channel.😊 I haven’t used UV much either but, I do have one good tip.. putting your mold on a mirror really helps with curing.
Thank you so much, Funo! ❤️. When it comes to Temu, just be prepared to exercise extreme self control! hahah. It's crazy how no matter how much time i search their molds... I swear I see new ones each time. I'm done buying molds (I hope) for a while. lol. I laugh as I re-read that. 🤣
Isn't that puzzle mold great quality?? I mean it stressed me out putting it together.. but I loved making it! :)
Ok. You just influenced me to try the UV resin from Temu! 😅
We just talked bubbles yesterday! Wow! I think I’m influenced to buy those too. They may or may not be the same quality of the ones I got from eBay, but for something like that, it may not matter.
I order from Temu, but it will help to hear and see your opinion before I order. And also, to know what to order.
You did a great job with all the products! Thank you so much!!
And, I’ll add, those little animal molds are so cute! I’ll get those to do I with my granddaughter.
Thanks, Y! ❤️. Oh, good... then I AM an influencer, and I didn't even know it! hahahah. You crack me up. ❤️. Thank you! 😊
Have never gotten any issues from Temu. Everything has been great. A lot cheaper than most sites and they always update so you know where your package is. I’m addicted to that site. ❤ Nice to know their UV sets fast also. Will snag some next order
Also pleased with everything except the quality of necklace chains, the pendants are nice, but the chains are pretty cheap - but what do you really expect yanno? So, I buy with knowing I will change out to my own chains.
@@lindao7887 I’m super picky about chains myself and any metal that touches skin. It’s either sterling silver or 18 ct vermeil or 14 ct gold. Been making jewelry since I was 16. 73 now.
It's definitely worth giving it a try. I can't tell the difference between that one and the ones that I buy from Michael's. Of course, I'm (obviously. lol) still learning to use it... but I'd buy it again. :)
yes, thin layers for the UV. You have to cook it longer between layers. also, cook them when there sticky. you need to wear a mask.
I almost messaged you when I was making those to ask about that! haha 😄
@@resinnut9335 you should have, I have used a lot of UV, you have to cure each thin layer for 2 mins.
do thin layers of uv resin each time . if you put too much it won't cure . love him .
Thank you, Claire! I'm excited to try it again!
Hello! 😃 Very nice creations...I really liked the astronaut and the shell.🤩
Thank you, Arelis! Those were my favorites too ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the resin and powder. UV resin should be unmolded after it cools from being in the lamp. Also, I made the mistake of mixing black uv ink and putting it in the mold too thick. When I drilled into it to add a screw-in bezel, it leaked black resin. Lol. I have been ordering from Temu for a few months also. I love the molds. The vase molds are very cute, but I recommend putting something, I use the glitter they sell, to strengthen the center so the center doesn't collapse. The glitter is 5 or 6 colors that screw together into a column. Great video and I am so glad I found your channel. I subscribed of course. ❤
Hi Christine! Thank you so much for the great suggestions and tips! I really do appreciate it. :) Welcome to my channel, and thank you for watching. I love Temu chunky glitter... The spiral would be really fun!
You done a great job on the video One of the things you were doing wrong with the resin is. after you cure it on the top then sometimes you need to turn it over to the bottom and cure it on the bottom too. And you really don't have to layer it that much. It will cure better than what you think for. And I always do mine for about two minutes.
The bunny needed cooking on both sides, at least another 2 minutes on the other side and then maybe another 2 on the flip side.....you did good tho! so cute
Thank you, Linda! ❤️
Hi Barbara, love your channel. It’s been suggested I use resin to make a mold of a metal figurine I want to make more of for a project I have in mind, but as I’ve never used it before I’m trying to learn as much about it as possible before actually making anything.
I love Temu, Thankfully it’s now available here in the UK, but have to be really strict with myself because the site is soooo addictive, especially for craft supplies, and the fact everything gets delivered which is great as I’m not always able to leave my flat 😂
THANK YOU for all you share, your tips, tricks and advice. Always appreciated. ❤❤
Thanks so much for watching, Chrissy! I appreciate your comment. ❤️. Do you mean to use silicone to make a mold?
I have a TEMU UV lamp which is a 6 watt fingernail polish light that came with a 500 ml bottle of UV resin. Maybe I didn’t mix the bottle enough as only the knights of the chess pieces have actually set (still slightly sticky in places though other chess pieces have been curing over 15 hours & are set in spots & liquid in others.
Chessboard has also taken many hours, not the least bit close to setting times given of 1-2 minutes under the lamp & 1-2 hours in dull light and 20-30 minutes in bright sunlight. Nothing near it for some reason. I have a mirror under the lamp & my aquarium UV & or UV & white light on the light box which is another 48 UV globes. Board looks good 😊 and the pieces look good too.
Bunny is very cute! You may know by now, cure on both sides.
Thanks Mary! ❤️. Yeah.. that was a good lesson!! Haha
Turn mould over and cure both sides or use a mirror under the uv light to cure both sides at once
Thank-you. Jennifer! Yeah that was quite the learning experience! lol. Thank you! ❤️
Hi, I am new to your channel and am loving it. I just started ordering from Temu, loving it, too. I actually started out with UV resin. It just takes some playing with to get it right, but it's fun to get a project done so quickly. I live in Goodyear, AZ. Fun to hear from someone else here.
Hi Lisa! Welcome to my channel, and thank you for watching! ❤️. Thank you! I hope that I'll have much better luck with UV Resin as I practice a bit more. :) Nice to have another Arizona neighbor here!! 🌵 I'm in the East Valley, but my daughter does musical theater in Surprise, so we are out that direction often. :)
Very nice 👍 and amazing work 🎉❤
Thank you, Kakrona! I definitely learned a lot from that project! haha. :) ❤️
The little astronaut is so cute. I would love the link for the mica powders.
Hi Gail! Thank you! I'll get that posted along with a mold people are asking for. It'll be tonight in the description! ❤️
Black back helps with chameleon colours
Hi Deena! Yeah, I know... but I was using all Temu products and unfortunately didn't have anything black from them. Next time though! :)
Absolutely beautiful. I found 2 minutes per fin layer helps. In new to your channel came from marvously artzy
Thank you, Bex! Welcome to my channel and THANK YOU to Marva @marvelousartsy. I will definitely try that next time. Thank you!
I am a ultra beginner when it comes to uv resin * i am also dipping my hand in polymerclay as well* So i have been looking around and was wondering if i should even try temu * i have been ultra hesitant* Your video came up in my feed and i am like YES this will help me so much. You have a new subscriber and a HUGE thumbs up from me . Much love and happy holidays *its the day before xmas eve as i awatch and write this* from australia
Hi Selene! I'm so sorry for the late reply! Thank you so much for watching, subscribing, and for your comment. I still order regularly from Temu. I've spent $1000s and have never had any problems. Let me know if you try it and what you think! Thanks again, I appreciate you! ❤️
@@resinnut9335 Its fine and i definately will for sure
just found your channel. love it. I'm also in Arizona! down here in Tucson
Thank you and welcome, Drunk Dog! There are several from AZ who watch... So fun having neighbors here! 😄 I'm near Phoenix.
Use like a little spray bottle put in it Alcohole Spritz it with Alcohol and it will get rid of the bubbles before you put it in the uv lamp ! The Best UV Resin to get is JDICTION UV Resin or Let's Resin UV Resin but I'm hooked too on Temu & Shein they both have Alot of Resin stuff !! Great Job yea use Regular Part A & Part B Resin for that Astrounaut Bunny!
I wonder if you can paint the black mica on the back pretty heavy? Then put your coating of UV resin on top of it and then cure it. I may have to try to do that myself and see what it does. 17:11
Good idea Deborah! I'll have to try that next time. 🤔
❤ Too cute!
@resinnut I bought the Create Unique DIY Crystal Epoxy Pendants with this 1pc Key Buckle Silicone Mold as you show in this video from TEMU and I have no idea how to put them together?! Can you do a video on how you put them together? Im super new to this.
Hi Erin! Yes! I'd be happy to make a couple of those, and we can figure out together on a video. Probably post it this weekend. :)
you're cooking them too short - flip that coaster, another 2 min at least
Thank you! I had start start smoking at 2 mins before. Is that normal? 🤔
@@resinnut9335 crikey! No, I don't think that's very normal! x
New subscriber. What part of AZ are you in? I'm in Phoenix. Cute projects! TFS! Blessings to you! ✝🕊🙏🏼💖
Hi Cynthia! Welcome to my channel, and thanks for watching. ❤️ I'm on the east side of Phoenix. There are a couple of other viewers
from Phoenix area, too! :)
Thank you.. Have a wonderful and blessed weekend! ❤️
I love Temu! Their prices are Right! 👍🤜🤛
I've bought everything you showed, plus too much more, lol.
Look at their nail art & stickers - so many can be inclusions for resin. I always check in at Temu before ordering elsewhere, because, of course, they don't have everything, but almost! ✌🤟
Oh man, Willa. I hear you! I have about every flower, embellishment, glitter, powder, and darn near every mold, I think! hahaha. They make it way too easy. :)
I just ordered a few new powders from Temu. I am a new subscriber you came recommended in youtube ❤
Oh, I think you'll like them! For the price especially. :) Welcome to my channel, and thank you for watching. ❤️
Thanks 😊
I've learned at the very end when the bottom is completely cured yet to flip the mode over I'm sure it inside the mode for your rims or for anything on top
Yes! I learned the hard way! haha. Thank you ❤️
I’m so bad at remembering names so I refer to you as the “ okay “ lady💕💕
Hahah. Oh my gosh, I lol when I read your comment. You know, I'm so lost in resin thoughts that I don't even realize that I say it so often. But!! When I edit the videos, I cringe when I hear it and edit out A LOT of them. 🤣 Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. ❤️
@@resinnut9335don’t change a thing!! I absolutely love the way you do your pieces and I am learning so many wonderful things from you!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!! You are absolutely an amazing talented art influencer!! Your art work makes you stand out and your “okay’s” just is an awesome bonus!!! ❤❤❤❤
When I first glanced at the rabbit mold...I thought it looked like a Christmas toy soldier! 😂
😆 OH my goodness, that's too funny! I could totally see how you could see a soldier instead of the rabbit! hahah. :)
I just realized that the blue Diamond pad you are using is from their refrigerator liners! They were out of the blue ones and I end3d up getting a bunch of green ones…. To use as mats for resin crafting…. LOLOLOLOLOL…..
Right??? I have Pink and Blue. Love these!!!
What is the mould you are using with oyster shell we just got temu in uk 🇬🇧 lol 😂
At last! Waiting for my first haul......ooops!
Oh man!! That's great! I hope Australia is next. :) I'll get the link posted in the description tonight. ♡❤️
With the mica powders you can double layer them just make sure when you double layer them that you don't put a thick coat of resin on it
Thank you! Great idea ❤️
I am already subscribed but Marvelous Artzy said to watch you!
Thank you so much, Donna! I am so humbled that Marva mentioned my channel. ❤️. I should do the same with other smaller channels that I watch. 🤔
Do you lift the little bubbles off of the mold? I can’t find the bubbles on Temu. Can you help me?
yes!! I'll go look now

I thought I seen on another tutorial that with UV resin you had to cure both sides of the mold. Iv seen a few people put a small mirror inside their curing lamp to reflect the light .
I think you're right! Thank you! ☺️
I love Temu as well and switched from Ali Express! The only problem I've heard (and seen because they made a video about it) was that the UV resin yellowed with exposure to the sun. She lost a lot of product after a craft fair when the items she made with UV resin did not stay clear but yellowed horribly from being in the sun. She has years of experience, so i would test it out for sure. I know I'm going to because i have some from Temu and some from Let's Resin, so I'm definitely going to put them to the test. Other than that, i have been known to spend hours window shopping on Temu!🤭
Oh, what fun! I enjoy watching your videos! Could you share the name of the mold with the shell in it? I've been searching TEMU and can't find it! Thanks!!😊
Hi Melissa and Thank you!! I'll get the link posted tonight in the description! ❤️
Thank you so much❤
It would be a cool little keepsake if you put a child’s face photo in the mask of the astronaut 👩🚀 helmet - good mothers day gift
What a great idea!! 👍
Love your videos!Question...is your microphone set to react when you speak? It seems the beginning of sentences are chopped. ❤
You know, I was so glad to finally get that mic, and now I think it's really pour quality. It wasn't cheap... but I feel like it's... totally cheap!!. if that makes sense? I'm getting a different one for next week. Thank you for letting me know. ❤️
@Resin Nut Yep that makes sense. Good luck with your next mic. 😊
I use Temu also
They're a great option, huh? :)
Cute them longer. Also remember, the UV light needs to be able to penetrate the resin for it to cure. Using too much pigment & certain papers can impede the curing process. Also if you ever use liquid pigments or dyes opt for colors that are translucent not opaque 😉
Thank you, great tips LitAfuse! 👍 ❤️
I like it just an astronaut. No bunny ears
Thanks, June! Me too. ❤️
With clear or almost clear molds, after the first cure, flip it over. Also, a little more time curing would really help.
Thank you!! ☺️
TEMU is a tracking app. Why do you think it's so heavily pushed since the original SuperBowl ad?
Hello, Wynne. I'm not sure what you're referring too... as I didn't watch the Superbowl. lol. But! I do base my recommendations on my personal experiences with the company.
@Resin Nut The Superbowl commercials are millions to run and has to be cleared to be aired. This was an app not heard of before that day. Now every 2 ads on TH-cam is a Temu ad. Just curious what your thoughts were :)
Oh, I see. You know I had actually searched online for something I was looking for for my kitchen.. and Temu came up. The price was so low that I thought it was a scam. lol. So, I ordered like $13 worth, and that was like 7 items. I was really surprised that it was all legitimate, and at that time, I had zero idea that they had so many items. Like crafts, etc. So far, I've been happy with all of my orders. Have you tried it at all? If so, I'd be interested in your experience. :)
@Resin Nut No because of all the Chinese involvement with the app we are staying away from it.
From my experience you have cure both sides of the mold when using UV resin.
Thanks, Kathleen :)
Do have a problem with sticky or tacky resin?
I did using the UV resin, but only because I didn't cure it under the UV lights long enough.
Uv is a pain for deep pours much better for smaller projects like earrings and pendants ❤
Thank you, Blackmoon! Yeah, I was surprised at how many layers it took to fill in the mask. I was worried the bottom parts of it would start to burn! Oo
Have you used jdiction uv resin? If so, how is the smell of the Temu uv resin compared to jdiction? I have used a few different brands but most of the cheaper uv resins have an awful odor.
That little astronaut is adorable
I have found JDiction to be far superior to the rest, it has odor, yes, but one should be wearing a face mask at least.
I have not tried JDICTION UV resin yet. This from Temu had no odor. If I keep something under the light too long then I can smell a faint odor.
@@lindao7887 I also prefer jdiction out of the few UVresins that I have tried. The odor question is always my first concern when it comes to uv or epoxy resin, as I don’t like the lingering smell in the house or in my hair after using extremely odorous resins. When people first start out, they/we usually buy what is cheapest or most convenient, such as epoxy resin from Michaels. Then we just assume that all resins will smell as terrible as that, when in reality there are plenty of good quality resins out there with very minimal smell. Yes yes yes to PPE. Definitely important
I follow “ Crazy Glass Lady” and she now uses Jdiction
Can you share the uv resin link please?
Oh my gosh I'm so sorry I just saw this! Let me know if you still want the link!
Hi,can i ask if you wore uv goggles wen doing things.ty.
I wear safety glasses but not goggles for small UV projects. :)
Everyone I've seen does both sides of the mold with the light.
Thank you! I'll be sure to do that next time. :)
I got UV resin “clay” as it was called on Temu. What arrived was super sticky/tacky putty. Have you tried this product?
Oh gosh, no, I haven't seen that yet? Did you try it? Let me know what you think!
@@resinnut9335 I can’t even figure out what to do as it’s in a little container that you dip into. The issue is it’s so tacky and sticky. I tried wearing rubber gloves and handling the “clay” but it really just stuck the gloves together. It’s more like glue!
I love Temu too. Where in AZ are you located?
Hi Crow, I'm on the east side of Phoenix. :)
@@resinnut9335 Cool. I'm in Tucson. We're neighbors. Lol
Doing anything other than smaller pieces with UV resin don't come out very well and end up being quite costly. Additionally you need to cure UV resin for 90 seconds or more and you should also cure the opposite side as well.
Thank you, A. Yeah I really was missing my regular resin when I started the astronaut. lol. But now I know what not to do next time! 😀
I love temu. I had a problem once. They sent me the wrong items. I contacted them, and they let me keep the wrong order and sent the correct ones. I also got a discount on my next order. Their customer service was fast and caring.
I still order from them. They made their error right. I haven't had any problems since.
That's good to know! I have ordered 1000s of products now from them. There's only been a few mistakes, but I've never wanted to deal with calling. But next time I have a problem.. I'll be sure to contact them. Thank you! ☺️
You need to cure both sides of us resin. I’ve used Temu supplies and most of them are pretty good.
You spray the bubbles with Alcohol.
Thanks Vicky! I wasn't sure if you could do that on UV Resin. Glad to know it because that's my choice bubble popper! Thank you! ☺️
repetitive alcohol can hurt your mold eventually, some have suggested water mixed with some glycerin in that spray bottle
have to let it cool for 5 minutes before unmolding
That makes sense! No wonder it was hot. haha. Thank you, Maeve!
@@resinnut9335 "they" say, it should be cool to touch before unmolding.
I've been ordering from them for months and did not have an issue until this week. I ordered a clock mold and was led to believe the clock faces came with it. No. They don't, and not only that, but they don't carry them. They did, however, refund the money for the mold.
You have to cure both sides
Thank you! ♡❤️
UV resin shrinks, so you fill your mold. The lamp also heats up the resin a little. Also turn your mold upside down and cure both sides.Also your molds do need to be as Transparent as possible to allow the light to pass threw. I make small items with uv resin this is what I do. Also at least a minute or more each side.
Thank you, Linda! I know I'll have a better result next time. Thank you!
