So many tutorials out there for a variety of subject focus too much on the 'glitzy look at me more than the process' ....so annoying when you are trying to learn something.

I just normally use the method that you showed in the second part of the video with mixing more resin. The polish would definitely save me using more product. Oh and GREAT tip about the nail polish remover, I'm always trying to think of ways to save money.

Hi LittleWindowsResin! I was wondering if the Flitz polish had been tried on polymer clay pieces to polish them in conjunction with sanding.

@LittleWindowsResin
@LittleWindowsResin 7 жыл бұрын
Hello Michelle! I just did a test to see how it would work, and while it does give the polymer clay a bit more luster, it also rubs some of the color/clay off on the polishing cloth, so I'm not sure this is the best option. If you email me at fran@little-windows.com, I'll be happy to send you photos of my results so you can see how it worked. Maybe more extensive testing by a better polymer artist is called for. Have you tried coating your polymer pieces with a thin layer of resin?

So are only certain resins able to do the technique you did at the end, with brushing it on a piece? I ask because I tried this with a resin I got from michaels and the resin would reseed from the edges or bead up when brushed onto another resin piece. And these were flat pieces to boot @_@

Hello! Yes, each resin type/formula has different properties, one may be perfect for casting but not work well in thin layers, etc. Our Brilliant Resin is quite versatile, so it's great for casting, doming, layering, and 1-coat varnishing too. If you'd like to send me a photo or two of your project so I can see just what happened, I may be able to provide more detailed insight. You can email fran@little-windows.com Thanks for asking :)

Hi!! This video was one of the things that convinced me to buy this polish. However, for some reason I have found that it causes my pieces to become more cloudy than what I started with. I have tried it with different brands of resin as well as epoxy and UV and am still ending up with patchy, cloudy pieces :( I have even bought the microfiber cloth that goes with it and no luck. Do you know why this might be happening??

Hello Alicia, that can happen if there are places in your pieces that are softer than the rest, I wish I could come have a look, but if you'd like to send me some photos I'll be happy to advise. fran@little-windows.com

Hi there! great video but I need some help. I'm casting crystals in polyester resin and i'm sanding them down a bit but then they're stuck at that cloudy stage and I can't figure out how to polish them back to a transparent shine like how they started. Any tips? i'm using a (kind of cheap) silicone mold, if that helps

HI Sebastian! I'd talk to your resin vendor to see what they recommend. I stay away from polyester resin so I don't know how it reacts to the heat generated by polishing, or if you could glaze it successrully. Best of luck :)

Yes I did actually. It's been a bit and i've gotten a bit better with my sanding. However a new problem has arisen. Now when I want to encase a crystal in resin, the crystal appears to be broken inside and internal cracks appear in the resin. It seems like this might be due to using more catalyst but I haven't changed my ratios i've been using.

Sebastian Lundqvist I know it's a bit late but Peter Brown has a few videos with the polyester resin and I believe he used the micromesh series to get a glass finish on his pieces.

If the resin you are using has clear color and you put a clear non pigmented cote over it to shine it will it lose some pigmentation? Great video btw!

Hi Grace! If I understand your question correctly and all of your resin is clear, it shouldn't dim or dull the color at all. I hope that helps, I'd love to see your creations!

I use polyester resin but the surface doesn't come out as shiny as I'd like. Can I put a coat of epoxy resin or UV resin over it to make it more shiny? If so which would u recommend?

Hello! Yes you can, and I believe epoxy like our Brilliant Resin would bond better, but I'd advise doing a test first to make sure that the layers stick, with and without sanding between. Let me know if I can be of help in any other way :) fran@little-windows.com

What a great tutorial. Did you sand them before you polished them?

Thanks Tahlia! I typically don't sand before polishing, but I do sand if I plan to add another layer of resin, as show in the second part of this tutorial, to give the new resin something to hold onto. Hope that helps :)

Absolutely, although results will depend on how hard the resin is that your pen is made of :)

Hello Lauren! Yes, all epoxy resins will begin to discolor over time. Our Brilliant Resin is quite resistant to discoloration, so I think you'll be happier with your results. If you have any specific questions or concerns, email me with a photo of your piece and I'll be happy to help :) - Fran

Can you sand the piece with imperfections and then put the polish cream?
@LittleWindowsResin
@LittleWindowsResin Жыл бұрын
Yes you can, but you'll need to sand progressively up to about a 1000 grit+ for the polish to work. I hope that's of help :) - fran@little-windows.com

Hi Christie! If you mean Brilliant Resin, yes it works really well on acrylic pours, whether you Dome it or Cast it. If you mean can it polish resin with acrylic mixed in, or where the acrylic is partially exposed, I don't think so. If you'd like to send a photo of your piece I'll be happy to give a more focused reply :) fran@little-windows.com

I saw a video that used a glass coating spray to make a clear scratch resistant knife. Can this method be used for resin?
@LittleWindowsResin
@LittleWindowsResin Жыл бұрын
Hello Sarah! You'll have to test this out to make sure the coating doesn't interact with your resin pieces, and that it doesn't yellow over time like many coatings can. What was the brand you saw?
@SarahAbramova
@SarahAbramova Жыл бұрын
@@LittleWindowsResin the video didn't show a brand name, just the part that said it was a 10h glass coating spray for car paint, but seemed to work on glass and cans too.
