Many homeowners and decorators consider applying wall resin themselves. With the right product choice and preparation, turning your wall into a bespoke feature is an achievable DIY project. Here’s what to know before you begin.
Choosing a DIY-Friendly Wall Resin
Not all wall resins are equal when it comes to ease of use. For DIY tasks, epoxy coatings like “Vertical Glass” – Thick Resin Decorative Wall Coating are well suited as they can be applied with a spatula to a range of vertical surfaces including tiles, plaster, wood, and brickwork. They’re designed for straightforward mixing and can be tinted with pigments for a custom finish. Some products can be sanded after drying for different effects, allowing you to create a unique look with minimal fuss.
What If the Resin Is Professional Grade?
Some coatings, such as two-component polyurethane resins (like Prolux), are best left to those familiar with more advanced application processes. These formulas require careful mixing and a strict application method for optimum results. If you’re considering a resin in this category, make sure you’re comfortable working with two-component systems and take extra care with surface preparation. If in doubt, consult product guides or consider professional help for tricky jobs or heavy-duty protection needs.
Tips for a Smooth DIY Resin Wall Finish
- Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and correctly primed.
- Mix carefully: Follow manufacturer instructions for ratios and mixing times.
- Work in sections: Apply resin evenly with a spatula, avoiding overworking.
- Finishing: For some resins, lightly sanding after curing helps achieve a satin look.
When This Matters
DIY application is particularly relevant if you want creative control and cost savings for interior feature walls, small renovations, or custom colour and effect choices. If your project is straightforward and the resin is marketed for easy use, DIY is often a worthwhile option.
