1Preparing the Working Area

Before starting the epoxy resin sanding process, it is crucial to carefully prepare the working area. Clean the surface well from any residues or dust, ensure that the abrasive tool is clean and in good condition, and adequately protect your hands with gloves. It is also advisable to work in a well-ventilated environment to avoid inhaling fine dust particles.

2Waiting Times before Sanding

After pouring and leveling the resin, it is important to respect the curing times recommended by the manufacturer. Usually, the resin needs at least 24 hours to fully harden, but it is advisable to check the specific indications of the product used. Only once the resin is completely hardened, you can proceed with sanding.

3Sanding the Cured Resin

To sand the cured resin, it is recommended to use fine-grit sandpaper to remove any imperfections and achieve a smooth and uniform surface. It is important to work with regular and gentle movements, avoiding exerting too much pressure on the resin. During sanding, it is advisable to frequently check the surface to ensure that you are not removing too much material.

4Useful Tips for Optimal Resu

To achieve an optimal result in sanding cured resin, it is advisable to use high-quality products like those available at RESIN PRO. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully and, if necessary, perform tests on small surfaces to test the right technique. After sanding, you can polish the resin to obtain a shiny and reflective effect.
