How long should the resin be allowed to dry between one pour and the next?



1Drying Times

To ensure optimal results when working with epoxy resin, it is essential to respect the drying times between each pour. It is generally recommended to let the resin dry for at least 24 hours before proceeding with a new pour. This time is crucial to prevent the different layers of resin from mixing and to ensure perfect adhesion between them.

2Environmental Conditions

Environmental conditions can significantly influence the drying times of the resin. It is important to work in a well-ventilated environment with a temperature of around 20-25°C and with a relatively moderate humidity level. Extreme weather conditions such as intense cold or excessive humidity can slow down the resin drying process.

3Use of Accelerator Additivess

In some cases, it is possible to use accelerator additives to reduce the drying times of the resin between pours. Accelerators can be added directly to the resin before pouring to ensure faster curing. It is important to carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions to avoid any polymerization issues.

4Checking for Curing

Before proceeding with a new resin pour, it is crucial to verify that the previous layer is completely cured. You can check the curing by gently touching the surface or using a sharp object to test the resistance. Only when the resin is fully dry can you proceed with a new pour to avoid adhesion and deformation issues.

In conclusion, to ensure proper resin processing between pours, it is essential to respect the drying times, work in suitable environmental conditions, consider using accelerators if needed, and always verify complete curing before proceeding with the next pour.
