What’s Included in River Table Resin Kits?

If you’re looking to craft your own striking river table, a well-designed kit can provide everything required for both the resin pour and the finishing touches, even for beginners. Here’s what you can typically expect to find inside.

Core Contents for River Table Projects

A comprehensive river table kit is designed to cover each essential stage of the process. Kits include a high-quality epoxy resin system suitable for deep casting—either up to 2cm or, with deep pour resin, up to 5cm in a single application. You’ll also receive a compatible hardener to ensure proper curing and a selection of vibrant pigments to create your chosen effect within the resin.

Special release film so your finished table is easily removed from its mould
Colour pigments to add interest and custom style

Finishing Materials and Step-by-Step Guidance

Making your river table look its best is all about the finishing. That’s why kits come supplied with a dedicated polishing kit—typically including polishing cream and a set of pads in various grits—so you can achieve a professional, glossy surface. Most importantly, detailed instructions are included, walking you through everything from preparing the formwork to pouring resin and adding the finishing touches. This means even those with little previous experience can take on the project with confidence.

When a Complete Kit Matters

Opting for a full kit is especially helpful if it’s your first time working with resin tables, or if you want to avoid piecing materials together yourself. Every essential component is matched in quantity and compatibility, reducing guesswork and potential errors—allowing you to simply focus on the creative process.
