How much does two-component resin cost?
Compare prices and find the right resin for your project depth.
If you’re searching for a reliable two-component resin for your next project, understanding the price range and distinctions between leading options is essential. This guide compares key ResinPro resins—ideal for DIY enthusiasts, professional woodworkers, artists, and anyone needing clear, robust epoxy for casting or coating.
Overview: Comparing Two-Component Resin Costs and Uses
The cost of two-component resin depends on both the product’s capabilities and your project requirements. Prices typically range from under £10 for smaller kits to over £1,150 for large-volume, deep pour resins. Thicker pours generally require resins formulated for slower curing and heat management, impacting both price and suitability. Choosing the correct epoxy not only protects your budget but also ensures optimal results, whether you’re crafting jewellery, making river tables, or coating surfaces. Below, we spotlight products designed specifically for casting depths from 1.5cm to 10cm, each providing unique value at their price point.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose a two-component resin based on casting thickness and budget?
Select thinner pour resins like "Icrystal" or "Trasparente" for smaller projects, and deeper pour options like "EpoxyTable 5-Five" or "Epoxytable 10-Ten" for larger, thicker castings.
Does the price differ between resins for tables and jewellery?
Yes, deeper pour resins for tables generally cost more than those for small-scale uses like jewellery due to formulation and quantity required.
How can I minimise the cost of purchasing two-component epoxy resin?
Buy only what you need for your pouring depth and project size. Larger kits offer a better price per kilogram if you have bigger projects.
Does the mixing ratio of resin and hardener impact the cost?
