Working with Icrystal clear epoxy resin is straightforward, thanks to its user-friendly mix ratio and self-levelling properties. Here’s a practical guide to help you achieve an even, crystal-clear finish for your DIY, craft, or surface projects.

Correct Mixing Ratio for Clarity

For Icrystal epoxy resin, always use a 2:1 ratio — two parts resin to one part hardener by volume or weight. Carefully measure both components for every batch. Mixing thoroughly is key: stir slowly for several minutes, scraping sides and bottom, to blend the resin and hardener completely and avoid introducing excess air bubbles. This preparation step ensures your finished piece remains perfectly clear and free of soft spots.

Applying for the Best Finish

Once mixed, pour the resin gently over your surface or into your mould. Icrystal resin naturally self-levels, creating a smooth, glass-like top layer as it settles. Its odourless and clear properties make it well suited to coating tables, artwork, furniture, or embedding objects. For layers up to 1.5cm per pour, Icrystal delivers a flawless finish with minimal effort.

Tips for Success: Working Environment & Safety

  • Work in a well-ventilated area, using gloves for basic protection.
  • Ensure your surface is clean and dry before application.
  • Allow each layer to cure fully before adding more if you need extra thickness.
  • Keep dust and debris away while curing to preserve the ultra-clear look.

Precision in mixing and good pouring technique make the difference for projects where clarity and durability matter — such as tabletops, jewellery, or artwork. Careful handling prevents imperfections, ensuring your work has long-lasting, professional appeal.
