What Makes Deep Pour Resin Different?

Key Differences in Formulation

Deep pour resins, such as Epoxytable 10-Ten, are designed with a low-exothermic reaction. This means they release less heat as they cure, making them suitable for thick layers—sometimes up to 10cm. Standard casting resins are typically intended for much thinner applications, often under 2cm, and can overheat or yellow if poured too thickly.

Benefits for Large and Artistic Projects

Deep pour resins allow you to create thicker table tops, large sculptures, or embedded art with clear, bubble-free results. Their low-viscosity formula helps prevent bubbles and offers a longer working time, so you’re not rushed while creating your piece. In contrast, traditional casting resins cure faster and are better for smaller, detailed moulds where thin layers are adequate.

Selecting the Right Resin for Your Project

• Thicker pours (over 2cm): Choose a resin like Epoxytable 10-Ten for projects such as river tables or deep set casting.
• Standard projects (up to 2cm): For smaller items or layered pours, Trasparente epoxy resin will offer clarity and ease of use.
• Careful application: Always follow the manufacturer’s thickness guidelines and curing advice to avoid overheating or compromised finishes.
