[@myste1973]

I love how fast this video was. Very informative, but to the point so I didn't have to waste 40 minutes. I subscribed. ❤

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

Thank you so much for the compliment! I’m trying to make them that way as I’ve noticed myself when watching other videos that I tend to lose interest or fast forward if it’s too long 😅

So beautiful can’t wait to try it.

Bonjour de France, Super beau . Ma question, moi qui débute Je voudrais savoir quelques renseignement. Quel papier utilisez vous pour faire des dessins dans vos moules ? Et autre chose, il faut attendre combien de temps pour l’enlever ? Merci de me répondre en traduction si possible ? 🙏😘😘😘

Before applying the saran wrap the resin poured should be completely dried or slightly wet...what the texture should be before applying the wrap?

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

No it has to be done while it’s still wet and uncured so that you can manipulate the Saran Wrap to get the wrinkles. I do it after about 30 ish minutes after pouring after making sure to remove the bubbles that have risen to the surface😊

[@gunjumunju1]

Can I use dryer instead of heat gun ..

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

No, because a blow dryer blows air and a heat gun emits heat. It is the heat that releases the bubbles. You could use a bakers torch or a lighter to use the heat from the flame to release those bubble but you need to be careful not to ruin your mould or scorch your resin

[@tabassum-]

Are you using normal poly bag or any specific sheet ?

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

I’m using glad cling wrap but I don’t believe it needs to be a particular type

[@tabassum-]

@@ArtsyIslandGirl oh Thank you ☺️

These are gorgeous. I always have trouble removing the plastic film. Yours seem to peel away very easily. Do you have any tips? Have you ever tried using silicone release spray on the plastic. 😊

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

I wish I had tips to share. The only times I’ve had trouble is if I bury some within the resin trapping it. Perhaps it’s the brand? Mine is glad cling wrap.

[@susanmurray7530]

@@ArtsyIslandGirl Yes that does seem to play a big part in the problem. Thanks anyway. 🥰 I will keep persevering😄

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

@@susanmurray7530 Good Luck and have fun playing!

The plastic wrap got stuck in my resin help 🥲

[@ArtsyIslandGirl]

Hmmm, the only time I had my plastic get stuck was when it had folded on itself. I just continuing with the next step adding the micas and you can barely tell where the Saran Wrap got stuck. I don’t know of any other tricks to get it to release, I would keep going.

[@lahkesis15]

Im trying this technique,will be removing the cling wrap tonight😁.I was wondering if i can paint the coaster with acrylic paint instead of using the mica powder? 🤔
