← Back to What can I do with epoxy resin?

Epoxy resin makes it possible to transform ordinary tables and surfaces into beautiful, glossy, and durable showpieces. By coating surfaces with clear resin, you not only protect them but also enhance the underlying materials and designs.
Choosing the Right Epoxy Resin for Your Tabletops
Your choice of resin will influence the final appearance and durability of your tabletop. For crystal-clear, scratch-resistant, and odourless coatings, Icrystal offers an excellent solution with a reliable finish up to 1.5 cm thick. For multipurpose needs, especially if you require slightly thicker layers, Trasparente works well up to 2 cm. If you are adding a final thin protective layer for art or delicate objects, Art Pro can provide a super-clear, hard-wearing glossy coat. Always check the recommended application thickness and mixing ratios for the best results.
How to Apply Epoxy Resin to Surfaces
Begin by preparing your surface—ensure it’s clean, dust-free, and level. Mix the resin carefully according to the instructions: accurate measuring and thorough mixing are key to a successful finish. Pour the resin in stages if covering larger areas, and use a spreader or brush to help distribute it evenly. Remove air bubbles with a heat gun, but avoid overheating the surface. Allow the resin to cure fully, usually between 12 and 24 hours for a touch-dry finish, leaving it undisturbed to ensure a flawless, glass-like coating.
When This Matters: Protecting and Enhancing Everyday Surfaces
Epoxy coatings are especially valuable for surfaces that endure everyday use—kitchen tables, bar counters, and coffee tables all benefit from the hard, moisture-resistant layer epoxy provides. Not only does it create a long-lasting shield against scratches and spills, but it also deepens colours and embeds decorative features beneath a crystal-clear finish.
