← Back to How Do You Apply Transparent Epoxy Resin?


Selecting the right clear epoxy resin is vital for achieving strong, glossy, transparent results in DIY, art or craft projects. Each product is designed for different applications, thicknesses, and handling preferences.
Comparing the Main Clear Resin Types
- Trasparente: Designed for casting or coating layers up to 2cm. Offers a high level of clarity, is multipurpose, and includes an integrated UV filter.
- Art Pro: Best for art projects such as coating surfaces and producing glass-like finishes. It has a higher viscosity, is scratch resistant, and should be applied in layers no thinner than 1.5mm.
- Icrystal: Known for its odourless formula and clarity, suitable for layers up to 1.5cm. This is the go-to for those sensitive to resin smells or working indoors.
- One-2-One: Made for crafters and beginners, it features an easy 1:1 mixing ratio, medium viscosity, and produces a super-glossy finish. Excellent for jewellery and decorative items where ease and clarity are needed.


Choosing the Best Resin for Your Project
Your project’s requirements determine which resin will give the best outcome. If you are working on deep castings or tables, Trasparente offers easy pouring up to 2cm. For art pieces, especially when coating wood or making coasters, Art Pro’s dense, non-drip properties and UV stability make it ideal. If you prefer a low-odour option or need moderate thickness, Icrystal is reliable. For simple crafts or when precise measuring by volume is preferred, One-2-One’s straightforward mixing is advantageous.
When This Matters
Understanding these differences is crucial when pour depth, clarity, finish quality or ease of handling will affect your finished piece. Choosing the right clear resin means better results, fewer surprises, and simpler application for both beginners and experienced makers.
