The choice of epoxy resin makes a significant difference depending on the scale and style of your project. Here, you’ll find which resin types work best for large surfaces like tables compared to more detailed crafts such as jewellery or coasters.
Resin for Large Projects like Tables
For robust pieces such as river tables and large castings, a deep pour resin like the EpoxyTable 5-Five is ideal. These resins are engineered for pouring layers up to 5cm, offering low exothermic reaction to prevent overheating and ensuring a glass-clear finish with minimal bubbles. If your surface exceeds 5cm in depth, pouring in stages is recommended to maintain quality and safety.


Best Options for Jewellery & Coasters
Small-scale or detailed creations benefit most from multipurpose epoxy like Trasparente, which offers ultra-clear, non-toxic results up to about 2cm thick per pour. For absolute beginners or those wanting a ready-made solution, a kit such as the Resin Geode Coaster Starter Kit provides all the basics plus step-by-step instructions—perfect for embarking on decorative coaster or jewellery projects at home.
When This Matters
- If you need a flawless finish across a large area, deep pour resins are the go-to for structural strength and clarity.
- For intricate crafts or one-off art pieces, start with multipurpose or kit-based resins designed for casting thin layers without waste.
