#54. Frothy Resin Waves on a Wooden Lazy Susan - Using a New Heat Gun and Attachment

[@nataliaw.1371]

I would stop in half! Wooden turquoise texture is amazing, too.

[@tlrmd4you]

I’m just mesmerized by watching you do this!! And I’m also in awww, of your ease with these waves!!! I’m so envious!!

[@Procrastipainter]

Thanks for you kind words and for watching 🥰

[@sheenamoore3938]

With the real wave sounds this was totally mesmerising. Beautiful outcome too

[@nancyschwarzberg8932]

This is incredibly! I’ve watch so many videos on how to do this. The wait time of 20 minutes has given me more success. I can not even begin to tell you how many failed attempts I’ve had. Hundreds of dollars in resin. I have made huge messes and hours of cleaning things up after an attempt. I’m so impressed how carful and meticulous and seemly effortless you do this. I think maybe I saw one drop on you paper. You have really mastered the art. Your work is beautiful. I aspire to you that one day I’ll get the hang of this and have success. Thank you Nancy,

[@Procrastipainter]

Ohh Nancy, thank you for your kind words but I feel your pain. It took me a good 6 months of trial and error to get any kind of lacing, and I'm still figuring out what works and what doesn't. If I wait till my resin is nice and thick like cold honey, I get the best results. Thicker seems to hold the cells without them blurring (as long as you don't heat it too much with the heat gun or a torch). Best of luck finding your sweet spot! I know you'll get there 😉

[@NaseemThomas]

Your technique is amazing 👏 Have you ever used the ocean coat by just resin? It's thick... would you still wait until it gets more thicker?

[@NaseemThomas]

I feel your pain Nancy... I'm learning and spent so much on resin and have thrown so many unsuccessful attempts away 😢

[@tlrmd4you]

I so hear you!! I’ve ruined so many pieces by the last steps of the waves!! Cannot tell you how frustrated I was! She makes it look so perfect and with such ease…I could only hope! I think my problem is the resin I use. But then waiting for it to thicken up, then sometimes it just won’t blow out…I feel your pain!!!

[@user-iw3gu9vt3h]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Im a beginner and just love what you have created. Thank you

[@patmeyer2517]

Thanks for doing the waves in real time!

[@Procrastipainter]

Thanks for your kind words and for watching 😘🥰

[@eaprofiler648]

I have seen many others use different blues in order to achieve that transition from shallow to deep, but simply blending the one colour with the clear looks much more natural, the lacing looks great too, well done.

[@emresahin7627]

Look at the picture after the job is done. How can this realism be achieved with a 1 cm thick chemical layer and a few colors of pigment? miraculous effect. gorgeous and unique. and also being able to do this every time. I can't understand, it's just a magnificent dimension of reality. It's not like it was made by hand. the moment of water flow is stopped and frozen. in one word AMAZING

[@rkillian7233]

How long do you give it between pours. It mentions '24 minutes later', however, just resin , it states, takes over 2 hours or so to cure??

[@carriemitchell3020]

This is possibly the most realistic beach pour I've seen. Beautiful 👍

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰💙

[@lisalschultz44]

Beautiful work.. I have been trying beach scenes for about 6 months now and about six different alcohol inks, I just can’t seem to get the same cells you get.. You make it look so easy!

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you 🥰 I know how frustrating that is! I'm using titanium white pigment paste from Just Resin. It's likely to be more pigmented and possibly heavier than the alcohol ink, which helps with the cells. FYI I've done a few comparison videos of different whites on the market if you're interested? There might be one you already have or can get easily?

[@Danae42]

Best waves I've seen yet! Stunning

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching 🥰💙

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

This turned out really pretty. I have a couple of questions. I have a heat tool like yours and I'm so afraid to burn the resin. Is there a trick to not burn it? Also, do you know if there is food safe resin for cutting boards?

[@celticwarrior777]

Ya theres food safe resins

[@kim99may]

I like the spoon idea. I’m not good at control with a popsicle stick!

[@Procrastipainter]

The spoon I use seems to hold a fair bit too

[@SPS_survivor]

@@Procrastipainter haha 😂 - you’d make a hell of a surgeon with hands as steady as yours! I don’t know about anyone else, but as soon as it comes to laying down the white my hands are like jelly and messy - but hey, no waves are perfectly uniformed (my excuse and I’m sticking to it 😂) your work is outstanding, I love it. I’m just getting stock back together to have another go at this resin stuff after being very unwell for a long time and it’s great to refresh the memory. It seems like every man/woman and their dogs at it now though 😆

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching 🥰💙 My hands are only steady when I don't think about it - I can imagine shaking like a chihuahua if I had a scalpel in my hand 🤣 And the wobbly white line makes it more realistic 😉 I'm sure it will come back soon enough. It's like falling off a bike...

How do you mix your white and how long do you wait before you apply it to your piece?

[@natasp3709]

Very beautiful, congratulations!🎉 Could you please write witch hot gun you use and at what temperature you make the waves. Thank you in advance for your answer.🙏🌹

[@davidkeith1024]

Love the waves! I've been struggling to get better defined waves like yours . When you applied the 2nd blue layer, did you make up the white resin (applied at 7 minutes) at the same time so that it had gone "off" for 20 minutes before using? This would make sense to me as I've used white resin immediately after blue and the two just merge into a blob. Any advice would be most welcome, thanks. David

[@lorrainecaddy1433]

As many others have said I am in awe of your beautiful waves, the absolute best I've ever seen! Can you please tell me which brand of white pigment paste you are using as after almost 3 years of trying to master the art of ocean waves I am now going to purchase the exact same products you use to see if that helps me. I am so inspired by you that I wish I could get mixing right now.....Thank you 😊

Love it.... Absolutely beautiful....love your space here on KZbin and often peruse your videos.... Ordered some Titanium White and Dark Turquoise the other day. Can't wait to get it here in Colorado!

[@Procrastipainter]

Thanks for watching and for your kind words 😁 ohh that's always exciting to get to colours! Pro tip: you will need only the tiniest amount of the dark turquoise. It's super pigmented and a little goes a long way so that one jar will last you a long time

[@defylogictech]

@@Procrastipainter thank you for the advice as I sure as heck would have made the first batch too dark! Question, i tried using some turquoise from another vendor a couple months ago and my wood was a pine, so a bit light yellowish. The turquoise against the light yellow looked very green. Do you have to take into account your backgrounds when judging which colors to use? I noticed you used acacia wood I think....

[@Procrastipainter]

For sure yes you do! Much more so for the transparent colours. You could always give the pine either a full white paint cover or white wash (So you can still see the wood grain). Just make sure it's water based, not oil.

[@lyudmilalyuhova6049]

[@stockfella]

Very good video and good explanations, ordered a small torch to try and get cells to show up.

[@Mara-rc6rf]

So I've noticed no one painting the base colors before laying epoxy. Will paint affect it?

[@judgewhetten1040]

So do you mix up the white resin and let it sit in the cup for 20 mins? Wouldn't the make it over heat and harden?

[@Procrastipainter]

If it was a lot of resin in the cup, yes. But I only put enough to cover the bottom of the cup (maybe 1/4 inch deep) so it doesn't really cure that much faster than the stuff already on the piece

[@tubayldz4674]

Hello, what I want to ask is what kind of white paint you use? Is it opaque paint, which is special for epoxy? And do we mix the white paint with epoxy and apply it with a spoon?

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you for your kind words 🥰💙 I'm not sure what you could use in place if a heat gun, if at all. I've seen some people push the white with a hair dryer but I wouldn't think it would hold the cells. Best of luck finding an alternative

[@natalieself8791]

Hi I was wondering would you mind showing us how to do an acrylic pour and using a torch to create cells? Do you have to add anything to the acrylic first? 😊

[@Procrastipainter]

Hi Natalie 😊 I haven't done an acrylic pour in years! From memory, I used to add floetrol to the paint to get it the right consistency. Depending on what technique I was doing, I might add treadmill silicone to get cells. I only really used the torch to pop the bubbles. I know there's HEAPS of videos out there on acrylic pouring. I learnt a lot from Christina Welch - she goes live every week so you can ask her questions in real time. Julie Cutts (pouring your heart out) also has heaps of videos, so many different techniques! I've seen Rinske Douna torch her canvas rather close (Dutch pour) to bring out cells. I'm not sure I'd be much help - those artists have clearly mastered acrylic pouring 😉 I'd consider myself novice at best!

[@natalieself8791]

@@Procrastipainter thank you

[@Procrastipainter]

You've had me thinking about Dutch pours all night 🤣

[@malekodesouza7255]

That white mix looks a lot thicker. It's not self leveling like the clear/blue ones.

[@Procrastipainter]

That's how long I wait before adding the white - until it's much thicker - that way the cells stay more defined instead of going cloudy. It does self level once it's heated.

[@pakotorro86]

Sorry, what you use to sealing the wood before resin, thanks for your great work

[@Procrastipainter]

In this case, I used Cabothane clear water based varnish (from Australia). Whatever you use, make sure it's not an oil base or it will repel the resin. Best of luck 😁

[@pattyloya2404]

I love your videos big fan i have made trays and they came out great but I put a clear layer over entire thing in end otherwise would be uneven .. I wanted to make a lazy Susan for my mum but is there a “step” from the waves? If so then wouldn’t that cause things on the lazy Susan from being uneven ? Do you put a clear coat over entire piece please let me know how to complete the piece so there isn’t a lump or uneven resin

[@Procrastipainter]

Thanks 🥰 yes there's a step, about 1mm. You can absolutely put a clear coat over the whole thing to make it completely flat

[@queenhoneycookies]

Besutiful :) Can I use it for cutting food on that or not? Thank you.

[@Procrastipainter]

Thank you 🥰💙 Technically you can but the knife would scratch/ cut the resin so I wouldn't advise it

[@Felix5513]

Do you mind sharing why you wait 20 minutes to add the white epoxy???

[@Procrastipainter]

Not at all. I wait till the epoxy starts to thicken (get closer to the end of its working time). It seems to help the white make cells and stay like that instead of all mixing up and looking like clouds
