← Back to Which resin is suitable for AUO pockets?

Choosing the right resin is essential for achieving a resilient, high-gloss finish on worktops or surfaces within AUO pockets. An appropriate resin provides protection while maintaining clarity and aesthetic appeal.
Recommended Resin for AUO Pocket Surfaces
For coating worktops or surfaces situated within AUO pockets, Art Pro Epoxy Resin stands out as the preferred choice. This clear, durable epoxy creates a protective layer with an attractive glossy finish, enhancing both resilience and visual clarity. Its dense, non-drip formula enables precise application, minimising runs or pooling on flat and level areas, which is ideal for surface coatings subject to regular use.
Practical Application and Selection Tips
When working with surface coatings, aim for a layer between 1 and 10 mm, as recommended for Art Pro. Always follow the specified 3:2 mixing ratio by weight for reliable results. Surfaces should be clean and free from grease before pouring or brushing on the resin. Consider environmental factors: cure times typically range from 12 to 48 hours, and good ventilation is advised for best results. For projects where a deep pour is not required, “Trasparente” Multipurpose Epoxy Resin may also suit castings up to 2cm thick.
When Resin Selection Matters Most
Using the right resin is particularly important if your worktop or AUO pocket surface will see frequent handling, exposure to light, or needs to retain a pristine, scratch-resistant look. Features like UV protection and a robust finish help maintain the resin’s clarity and durability over time.
