← Back to How to make a resin sink?

When making a resin sink, methodical and accurate mixing of your epoxy resin is crucial. This ensures clarity, durability, and a flawless result without unwanted bubbles or surface imperfections.
The Importance of Precise Resin Ratios
Mixing resin and hardener in the correct ratio is the foundation of successful resin casting. Too much or too little hardener can result in a tacky or brittle surface, compromising the sink’s strength and appearance. Always check the product instructions—measure by weight for best accuracy using digital scales, not by volume unless specified by the manufacturer.
Step-by-Step: Mixing for Deep Pour Projects
- Step 1: Prepare a clean mixing container and wear suitable gloves for safety.
- Step 2: Carefully weigh resin and hardener according to the recommended ratio.
- Step 3: Mix slowly and thoroughly, scraping the sides and base of your container to avoid unmixed patches. Stirring slowly helps to minimise air bubbles.
- Step 4: For deep pours (over 5 cm or 10 cm), opt for a specialised resin such as Epoxytable 10-Ten to maintain clarity and control heat during curing.
When Mixing Matters Most
If your resin sink project involves deep casting or large surface areas, methodical mixing is especially important. Proper blending ensures the finished sink is both clear and durable, without unpredictable setting or surface clouding.
