← Back to How to Avoid Resin Nests in Infusions?

Understanding your workshop environment can make all the difference in resin infusion projects. Temperature and humidity play key roles in the quality and success of your results.
How Temperature and Humidity Shape Resin Infusions
Both high heat and excessive moisture can hinder the removal of air bubbles from resin mixtures, heightening the risk of ‘nests’—clusters of trapped air that mar a clear finish. Cool or damp conditions may slow the reaction, while warm and humid environments make bubbles more persistent. Maintaining a moderate, stable temperature and dry atmosphere in your workspace gives you the best chance of success.
Practical Steps for Managing Room Conditions
- Keep it steady: Aim for indoor temperatures within the recommended range for your resin product and avoid sudden fluctuations.
- Control humidity: Use a dehumidifier in muggy spaces to reduce moisture in the air.
- Mix mindfully: Employ tools such as the Anti Bubble Mixer for Epoxy Resin to minimise bubble introduction, particularly important in variable conditions.
When This Matters Most
If you notice persistent air pockets in your infusions, or you’re working in a garage or conservatory with little environmental control, prioritising climate management reduces frustrating results and waste. For extra bubble removal after mixing, isopropyl alcohol may help promote a smoother outcome.
