Choosing the right resin is crucial when creating a wood and epoxy table. The correct deep pour epoxy provides both clarity and reliable bonding, ensuring a standout, long-lasting finish.
Deep Pour Epoxy: The Key to Exceptional Tables
For stunning wood and resin tables, deep pour epoxy resins are your best option. They are formulated to handle thicker applications with slow curing, minimising overheating and bubble formation. If your table requires resin layers up to 5cm, EpoxyTable 5-Five is ideal for clear, strong and bubble-free castings. Projects demanding thicker pours—over 5cm or larger tabletops—will benefit from “Epoxytable 10-Ten”, designed for up to 10cm in a single pour while maintaining clarity and strength throughout.
Matching Resin to Your Project
The thickness and size of your tabletop are the primary factors in selecting the right resin. For most river tables and decorative furniture up to 5cm thick, go for a trusted deep pour resin like EpoxyTable 5-Five. For extra-large features or super-deep pours up to 10cm, “Epoxytable 10-Ten” ensures a steady cure without excessive heat. Always follow the recommended pour depths and layering instructions to ensure best results and minimise issues.

When This Matters
Choosing the correct resin really matters if your project involves thick layers or large surface areas. The wrong epoxy may overheat, yellow, or result in weak bonding, especially with deep pours. Ensuring you match resin type to table scale prevents disappointment and delivers a professional finish.
