← Back to What to Do If the Resin Cracks?


Planning a project that requires resin to be poured up to 10cm deep? Selecting the right product is essential for a successful, crack-free result, especially with large castings like tabletops or river tables.
Why Resin Choice Matters for Deep Pours
Standard resins are generally not suitable for very deep pours, as they may overheat, develop bubbles or even crack when used in these applications. Instead, specialised deep-pour epoxy resins such as “Epoxytable 10-Ten” are formulated for this purpose. These resins have a low exothermic reaction, meaning they generate less heat as they cure and are designed for thicknesses up to 10cm in a single pour.


Tips for Super-Deep Pour Success
- Layering for Large Projects: For surfaces where any side exceeds 100cm, it is best to pour in several layers, allowing around 6–8 hours between each. This prevents excessive heat build-up and helps avoid cracking or warping.
- Low Viscosity: Look for resins specifically described as having super or ultra-low viscosity, as these provide bubble-free results even in deep applications.
- UV and Heat Resistance: For clear, long-lasting results, choose products with strong UV filters and heat resistance up to around 70°C, helping maintain their clarity and structural properties over time.
When Super-Deep Pouring Matters
Using the correct deep-pour resin is especially important for thick tabletops, artistic castings, and layered projects where high clarity and strength are required. Attempting a deep pour with the wrong product can result in surface blemishes, yellowing, or internal cracks—issues much harder to repair after curing.
