How and When to Reapply Epoxy Resin to Your Table

When Should You Reapply Epoxy Resin?

Signs that your table might benefit from a fresh resin layer include visible scratches, dullness, or loss of the smooth surface. If minor wear is present, polishing with a dedicated system like the Epoxy Polish can often revive the look. Reserve full reapplication for more significant damage or exposure that has breached the resin’s protective layer.

How to Reapply Epoxy Resin Properly

• Surface Preparation: Lightly sand the existing resin surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g. 320–400 grit) to ensure good adhesion. Remove all dust and clean thoroughly.
• Choosing the Right Resin: For surfaces up to 2cm, opt for a multipurpose clear epoxy like Trasparente. Use a deep pour epoxy such as EpoxyTable 5-Five if you need to repair or cast thicker sections (up to 5cm).
• Application: Mix the epoxy strictly according to the manufacturer’s guidance. Apply in an even layer, working slowly to minimise air bubbles. Allow to cure fully before moving or further finishing.

Finishing Touches and Ongoing Care

Once cured, inspect for imperfections. If needed, sand lightly and use a polishing product to enhance gloss. Regularly maintain your table by avoiding harsh cleaners and using soft cloths for cleaning. Epoxy Polish can help maintain the shine and remove fine scratches in the future.
