Hey! Something I reccomend doing is pouring resin on top of the mold too! It makes it so there aren’t any air pockets in the numbers which is the real problem, and if there are any they can usually be sanded off!

[@honeymilk4398]

Ive also found heating up the resin and hardener (seperately) lowers the viscosity and helps bubbles escape, as well as torching the top of the resin with a lighter to pop the bubbles!

[@MakerBuildIt]

I'm going to try that! I may do a new pour tomorrow on my Live! 😀

[@honeymilk4398]

@MakerBuildIt awesome! I used a water bath to heat mine so it heated slowly and uniformly

[@nylomuller5222]

A tip that worked quite well for mne: Use silicone mixing cups and a cheap mug heater to heat the resin while mixing. Not too long, because it will shorten the working time. But it will keep the viscosity low enough to release most of the bubbles@@honeymilk4398

[@alperleguin37]

Do you think any brand of alcohol inks can result the same?

[@MakerBuildIt]

Maybe. I have not tested any others yet. 😀

aka Shaun here from tiktok did you 3 d print your panit holder in background on desk ? I like that

[@MakerBuildIt]

Hey Shaun! No. I didn't. I got it at Michael's.
