What’s the Best Way to Avoid Bubbles in Coloured Resin?

Bubbles can easily form in coloured resin and spoil the final finish of your work. Thankfully, with some simple preparation and careful technique, you can achieve clear, glass-like results for your resin art projects.

Mixing and Waiting: The Foundations for Clarity

When incorporating colourants such as the Colourfun Liquid Epoxy Resin Colourant into your resin, start with slow, gentle mixing. Vigorous stirring traps air, so take your time and ensure both resin and colourant blend smoothly. Once mixed, let your resin sit for a few minutes before pouring—this simple pause allows air bubbles to rise to the surface naturally.

Pouring and Surface Treatments

Pour your coloured resin slowly and steadily to reduce the chance of trapping new bubbles as it settles. After pouring, inspect the surface for any lingering bubbles. A quick pass with a heat gun or torch (from a safe distance) will help release surface bubbles, leaving your resin clearer.

When Bubble-Free Resin Projects Matter Most

Minimising bubbles is essential for professional jewellery, river tables, and decorative artworks where clarity is vital. Taking extra care during colouring and pouring ensures gorgeous results every time.
