Epoxy Resin

Epoxy resin is a thermosetting resin widely used for its excellent attributes of chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and electrical insulation. This material is highly valued in the coating and DIY sectors for its ability to adhere to a wide range of surfaces. Epoxy resin is often used to create smooth and durable surfaces ideal for floors, countertops, and coatings. Its versatility also makes it suitable for artistic and DIY jewelry projects. Epoxy resin is available in various formulations to suit specific application needs.

How to Insert Flowers into Resin

To insert flowers into resin, follow these steps:

1. Preparation: Ensure the flowers are completely dry and free of dust. 2. Choosing the Resin: Use transparent and self-leveling resin for a crystal-clear result. 3. Pouring: Pour a thin layer of resin into the bottom of your mold. 4. Placing the Flowers: Arrange the flowers as desired on top of the first resin layer. 5. Final Pour: Cover the flowers with another layer of resin, making sure to avoid creating air bubbles. 6. Drying: Let the resin dry following the manufacturer's instructions.
