Comparing Self-Levelling Epoxy Resins: Key Differences

Not all epoxy resins are created equal—especially when it comes to their self-levelling properties, clarity, and pour thickness capabilities. The main differences to consider are the maximum layer thickness per pour, suitability for deep or surface projects, ease of use, and resistance to yellowing. Some formulas are optimised for deep pours and large tables, while others excel in thin, detailed castings and artistic applications. Below, you’ll discover which resin works best for your approach, whether you’re designing jewellery, surfacing furniture, or pouring full river tables.

Choosing the Right Self-Levelling Epoxy for Specific Projects

For furniture, tabletops, or river tables requiring larger volumes and greater depth, “EpoxyTable 5-Five” or “Epoxytable 10-Ten” are tailored for deep, self-levelling applications. Always follow recommended thickness guidelines to avoid overheating and ensure proper curing: never exceed the product’s advised maximum per single pour for optimal results.

Pro Tips for Flawless Application

Prepare your workspace for self-levelling epoxy by ensuring all surfaces are dust-free and level. Select the right resin for your intended thickness, and pour slowly to avoid air bubbles. Always wear gloves and follow detailed mixing instructions for the best outcome.
