Wood and Epoxy Resin Preparation

To begin creating a stunning epoxy river table, it is crucial to select the right wood and prepare it properly. The transparent resin that will fill the table's central space requires a smooth and flawless surface. After choosing the most suitable wood for your project, sand the surface and seal it to prevent resin absorption.

River Edge Creation

A distinctive feature of an epoxy river table is the presence of a resin "river" running through it. To achieve this effect, you need to build a containment around the area where the resin will be poured. This edge can be made with durable adhesive tape or plywood. It's essential to seal the edges carefully to avoid resin leaks.

Resin Pouring and Leveling

Once the area is prepared, and the river edge is in place, it's time to pour the resin. You can add colors or pigments to the transparent resin to create unique and personalized effects. After pouring, leveling the resin meticulously is crucial to ensure a uniform, bubble-free surface. Allow the resin to dry following the manufacturer's instructions.

Finishing Touches and Protection

Once the resin has completely hardened, remove the river edge and proceed with final touches. Carefully sand the surface, polish the resin, and apply a protective sealant to ensure the longevity of your epoxy river table. By following these steps and using the right materials available at RESIN PRO, you can create a unique and visually striking epoxy river table.
