The center is a bonus gift, you can use for key holder or decoration of gift with some left over resin. It is easy to check your final color choice and thickness just before you start pouring.

These are gorgeous. May I ask the purpose of the liquid latex on the bottom? Is it for protection while you do the top coat?

heyyyyy Natail it is exactly for that reason xx if resin flows over the edge it will go under and in ... on the bottom making the finishing twice as hard we would need to sand the backs x

i managed to catch the last 5mins just got im gutted do you ever use isopropanol ? spray thats what i always use as my heat gun is to strong and my touch blew up ever since i have just use a light spray of that on and some moulds with detail say dominos i talc them 1st i fin that works well

[@elliewilliams4131]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner its much better for your mould than any other mothered, i have used it for a long time when i do soaps and still have the moulds some are 8 yrs old, all you need is a little travel spirts bottle (the ones that come in the travel sets) not a normal heavy spray bottle, the alcohol will keep working under the surface and the top will evaporate ( you should have your mask on its stinks haha ) but i have also used vodka and that half the percent of isopropanol if your scared of it lol, for me once my resin is mixed i give it a light sprits and leave it one side boy do the bubbles pop its fun to watch, then mix in my colours, domino moulds i dust with talc shake out, and then pour and have had the best results this way i done 2 sets the same time one with out what i just listed i.e the way most of us do it and the way i just listed the i couldnt believe the difference, i even clean my moulds with it and not one has had any problems just make sure its a fine mist not a spray and a little goes along way you can still use your heat gun if needed but i wouldnt touch just in case but then people touch who have used alcohol ink thats when im cringe haha hope that make some sense

@@ClairesCraftyCorner ok thank you. It's usually printed on the packaging. I'll give them a message x gorgeous coasters!!

Making mandala coasters this weekend! The molds I got recommended pouring a clear layer first, kind of like you did here but tinted. Can you do it with an opaque color too?

[@cruskaiaalbert-hall9195]

Don’t hate me for all the questions! But I’ve also seen some people coat the coaster with color powder first before pouring - what do you think?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyyyy lovely ... I would never hate you for asking questions ha ha you can do all of those things. The only thing to worry about when coating with powder is then filling all of the nooks and crannies with resin afterwards. You may come across more surface bubbles.

Hi there! Found some PVA glue and will be top coating this week. Question about the drip offs, don’t they show up on the sides of the coaster as well? Should I cover the edges with PVA too?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

@@cruskaiaalbert-hall9195 they can do yes .. but only when flood coating. If you aim to top coat without spillages that would be ideal. I would not do the edges no .... this can create yet another lip of resin to get rid of. X but that is just my personal preference x
