When encapsulating objects in epoxy resin, the thickness you can achieve in a single pour depends on the resin formulation. Deep pour options let you embed and preserve bulkier items safely and with a professional finish.
Understanding Deep Pour Resins
Standard casting resins are generally suitable only for thin layers. Attempting thicker pours with conventional formulas can result in overheating, bubbles, or incomplete curing. Deep pour epoxy resins are specially developed to handle higher volumes, allowing for encapsulation up to 10cm in a single casting for large-scale projects.
Choosing the Right Resin for Your Project
- Up to 1.5cm: For smaller projects or surface coatings, clear resins like Icrystal are ideal.
- Up to 2cm: For slightly bulkier objects, “Trasparente” offers clarity and easy handling.
- 2–5cm: For artwork, tables, or larger encapsulations, EpoxyTable 5-Five is formulated to pour deeper without excess heat.
- Up to 10cm: For the deepest pours, such as casting river tables or encapsulating large objects, Epoxytable 10-Ten safely allows pours up to 10cm per layer.
For projects exceeding the recommended thickness, layering your resin—allowing sufficient curing time between pours—remains essential for best results.
When Deep Pour Matters Most
Deep pour resins are crucial when encasing large keepsakes, preserving flowers, bulk wood pieces, or creating dramatic river tables. Thicker encapsulation not only enables creative scope but also ensures the integrity and visual clarity of your final piece.
