Choosing the right epoxy resin is key to creating a beautiful and durable resin table. Your project’s size and thickness will determine the best product for reliable results.
Selecting Epoxy Resin by Table Thickness
Epoxy resins are designed for specific pour depths to ensure they cure properly without overheating or trapping bubbles. For tables up to 2–5cm thick, a deep-pour resin such as EpoxyTable 5-Five provides excellent clarity and good working time. If you need to pour thicker layers—up to 10cm in a single application—Epoxytable 10-Ten is formulated for these larger castings. For beginners, a comprehensive option such as the “River-Table” Kit includes resin, hardener, pigments, and all necessary accessories to start your first table safely and simply.
Tips for Successful Resin Table Projects
- Preparation: Ensure your work area is dust-free and your formwork is sealed to prevent leaks.
- Layering for Larger Projects: For tables with sides longer than 100cm or those requiring more than 8kg of resin, pour in several layers, allowing 6–8 hours between each to avoid overheating and ensure an even cure.
- Mixing and Pigmentation: Follow recommended resin-to-hardener ratios precisely for reliable results. Pigments can be added for colour effects, as included in kits designed for resin tables.
When Choosing the Right Resin Matters
Selecting a resin suitable for your planned thickness prevents common issues such as yellowing, incomplete curing, or cracking. Deep-pour formulas are engineered for stability at greater depths, making them ideal for statement river tables and large designs.
