Epoxy Resin: Painting silicone moulds with Acrylic paint

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Update: This method does seem to leave subtle marks in silicone moulds. It was brought to my attention and I checked mine. Mine are only visible when held up to the light so I do not yet know what the long term impact will be. Please try this method at your own risk and I will try and update this when I have. I always top coat so I know the top coat will hide marks. However if you do not want to top coat, possibly avoid this method.

[@nadinereeves9475]

why do you not mix the resin 50/50 ?

[@shaykohli638]

Can you try this with jesmonite and see how that turns out?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

@@nadinereeves9475 hey Nadine ... sorry I have only just seen this. This Resin was 2:1 not 1:1 ... x

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

@@shaykohli638 heyyyyy Shay ... yes it is absolutely on my list of things to do ... it may be just after 25th Dec..... all my videos are Christmas up until then but I an totally planning on it.

Me and patience don't go together.... love that. Those came out amazing. Just my 1 cent

I wasn't totally convinced acrylic paint right on the mold, would work... obviously, you proved it will.

PS: Bridgerton was really a good show!!!

You nailed the leopard spots!!!! I mean you nailed them all but I feel like those would be the most challenging to me. Probably bc id over think it and it would look like polka dots.

The way the acrylic paint just blends right into the resin...brilliant. Yes leave the leopard de molding for last!! Love the bright magenta...it is incredible. You are incredible. Love ya!!! ❤️
