Which Resin is Best for Furniture or Tabletops?

Why Resin Choice Matters for Table and Furniture Coatings

Furniture surfaces and tabletops face daily wear and tear, so it’s essential to select a resin that provides ample protection. Epoxy resins specifically formulated for surface finishes, like Icrystal, offer excellent scratch resistance and are designed to remain crystal clear. An integrated UV filter helps protect against yellowing, preserving your surface’s appearance over time.

Recommended Products and Application Tips

For most coating applications, a resin such as Icrystal—suitable for layers up to 1.5cm—will deliver an odourless, high-gloss finish with durability ideal for tables. If you need to apply a slightly thicker coat, “Trasparente” is formulated for up to 2cm thickness per layer, making it suitable for both detailed castings and larger, flat surfaces.

• Always follow the recommended mixing ratios and pour in thin, even layers for best results.
• Allow each layer to cure properly before applying the next to minimise bubbles and surface imperfections.

When This Matters Most

Choosing a scratch-resistant, UV-protected resin is especially important in kitchens, dining areas, or other high-traffic spaces prone to spills, heat, and everyday use.
