What RESIN MISTAKES have you made - Please share with us below! :)

[@DianeMaley]

Fortunately I haven’t made any mistakes........I was so afraid of making mistakes that I watched the videos over and over....and over. I did experience a problem with a 20” round canvas, but was able to save with a quick sanding. In fact, I find two coats are better than one.

[@KellieChasse]

@@DianeMaley Ok that's the best answer EVAH!!! ;)

[@royh.3239]

My question is how do we repair those mistakes? I have a project right now in dire need of being re-done but noone offers any tips on how to repair.

[@KellieChasse]

@@royh.3239 That's a great idea for future video! With Art resin is simple to fix - light sanding and add a new top coat. But for other issues, Art Resin website has a great OPPS video series for fixes that may help you now. :) kzbin.info/aero/PL56BR0x4HHEFtKh2vAoBzCsOXoYFlID95

[@ldygwood]

I just made a beautiful acrylic painting (best I’ve ever done) and after pouring resin on it and letting it dry, I come back to a huge crack in the middle of the painting 😩 literally it look like the Grand Canyon 🤦🏽‍♀️ I honestly don’t think it’s fixable and I have no clue on what to do with it

[@coreyhondzinski8097]

"We don't make mistakes, just happy little accidents." -Bob Ross That quote works so well with resin, especially if you can improvise quickly. I can't count the number of times I've goofed (usually cuz I try to do too much, too quickly at once), and turn a potential huge mistake into a deviation from my original plan. Or I made something completely different because I dropped the wrong color in the resin, so I said "screw it" and picked a different mold. So I would say slow down. Plan ahead, and pay attention to the little details. Have your supplies ready and know your medium. If you're using a mold, even simple coasters, pay special attention to the corners, edges and creases. -Don't overpour. I do this one a lot with my intricate little molds. -Don't use too much pigment or glitter. Start with a little and add more if you think you need it. -Have an idea how much resin your project needs, but always have an extra mold (or 2 or 3) on the side for the extra. Also keep some extra pigment and additives like glitter. Some of my favorite things I've made have been from the leftovers from me mixing way too much resin. I've only been doing this for about 6 months, and I've only done maybe 10 pours (but I do a bunch at once), but I've learned a lot. My work isn't perfect, but I think I give good advice. People ask me for help in my FB resin group lol. So maybe with enough "happy accidents", I'll be too enough to teach my own class lol.

[@jonwikan3986]

I would like to add the most unmentioned mistake to this already fantastic list. I see artists going strait to sanding after epoxy cures to correct dips, fisheyes. The big topic missed most of these videos is amine blush, of course until someone gets a bad blush problem then they make a video. Amine blush is a common topic in boat building and there is a lot of info on the web; but, not so much knowledge in the art, surfboard building industry. So, when doing a second coat or any top coat over epoxy, always wash your previous coat of epoxy with hot water(after its fairly cured), plain dish soap(no anti bacterial, perfume etc..) and an abrasive pad (scotch brite white) before sanding your epoxy for a re-coat(super easy). Even if it is non blushing epoxy as they can blush a bit in humid conditions. Amine blush is a waxy water soluble coating that happens when epoxy cures, especially if you pour in a high humidity situation(or dropping temps), so keep an eye on weather for storms or use heat lamps, heater or light bulbs to lower relative humidity around your project. Alcohol or solvents do not remove blush very well, again because it is water soluble. Blush can be visible but can also be invisible or subtle. Sanding before washing, rubs the blush into the surface and can prevent a good bond and possibly clouding or fish eyes. If temps drop to the dew point the blush can get into the cured epoxy rather than on top so check your weather. I only know about this from my one really bad experience and since then no problems as I always wash no matter what. Epoxy is not cheap so get out the hot soapy water between coats. Sand and then wipe down your project with acetone or denatured alcohol to remove contaminants. Let dry then re-coat; acetone drys faster. I wait 1/2 hour or smell the surface. If you smell acetone or alcohol it's not dry and can cause fish eyes. Once wiped down alway put on rubber gloves. The oils on your skin can cause fish eyes that may not disappear using a torch. One final tip, add your hardener first(swirl around the container on to the sides then add pigment if needed as the hardener tends to help dissolve pigments very well but also adding resin first can leave a thin layer of resin without hardener mixed into it around the edge of your container and you can get uncured spots at the end of your pour. Mix slowly and thoroughly to avoid bubbles and if painting a fill coat move that brush very slowly, same with varnish top coats. Oh and another most important, know your product. Call them and ask questions! Every resin is slightly different, Cheers, JW

[@KellieChasse]

Wow, great information and so well written Jon, thank you!!

[@KristelTV8]

Thank you so much for this info mam... Luckily I found you before I'm going to start coating my painting with resin. God bless... subscribe here.

[@KellieChasse]

Welcome to my KZbin Art family Kristel!

[@Liesl-Yvette]

OMG... I had covered several of my artworks in clear resin and then suddenly out of the blue I started getting long wavy lines thorugh the surface of the pieces... I thought it was due to the cold weather as all my other pieces had been resined in the summer... but i think now it was due to my scraping the inside of the resin containers? what do yout think?

[@KellieChasse]

So sorry that happened to you! It could be that, or inconsistent temps. If you are pouring during the colder months, try giving your resin a warming bath (hot water) before pouring. Try to keep your space at a consistent temp while it's curing.

Great tips for myself because I’m a beginner!! ❤️ Quick question. What’s the best place to work in?

Good ventilation and clean. 😘 it can get messy with larger project, but even smaller ones protect you table with a clear shower curtain and it will peel right off once the rein is cured. 🥳

Thank You for your great tips. My question is , I have a deer antler silicon mold, and I poured resin into it, let it cure, but it did not cure super hard . It is still bending. What did I do wrong, and how can I fix it?

[@KellieChasse]

Hi Gabriele, welcome! Oooh, what a cool mold! If you are using art resin it can take up to 72+ hours to fully cure hard (give it a little more time). If it still doesn't, it may be that it didn't get mixed well, or off on the measurements.

[@reniunderwood8339]

Can you give advice on inserting pictures in resin, like coasters

[@KellieChasse]

Since most things will float in the resin, put down a small clear layer of resin, then add your picture. Make sure it's sealed if it's a paper picture. :)

[@hastingsgirl53]

Thank you for the tips! My pieces always turn out bendy so hopefully this will help! 🥰 I was wondering, how do you work with your pets around? I’ve only done resin twice but i’m now worried on the effect it will have on my dogs, the room is always ventilated and I make sure they’re elsewhere in the house but it’s all one floor and I wouldn’t want to hurt them! ♥️

[@KellieChasse]

Hi Layla, It is certainly a process!!

[@hastingsgirl53]

@@KellieChasse thank you so much for getting back to me! ♥️ Sorry for being annoying but I just have one more question? Do you keep your pets out when the resin is casting? I let mine cast in a tightly closed cupboard as it’s the only place in the house that seems safe and I was hoping that’s okay? Sorry for pestering, I’m just so new at all of this! :)

[@KellieChasse]

@@hastingsgirl53 I use Art Resin brand which claims to have no VOCS (I still take precautions). So it will depend on your resin kind/brand. Some have more VOCS than others, and those VOC's are what escapes during the curing process. Here's a quick article you may like to read: www.epa.gov/indoor-air-quality-iaq/what-are-volatile-organic-compounds-vocs

[@renatebeasley5754]

I hope you can help, I poured my first geode and with the final color I must have added too much acrylic paint or not enough hardener because one layer on one section is not setting up. The entire project looks amazing so can I leave it sit for a few days and put the flood coat on and hope it will hold the softer resin in place?

[@KellieChasse]

Oh NO!!! So sorry!!! Sounds like it could be either of those issues. Art resin recommends scooping off the sticky goo that didn't set and then adding new resin.

[@jonwikan3986]

I have had a similar problem. Usually bad mixing or low temps. I would get it into a really warm room for a few days and see if it kicks. We had a low temp situation on a floor and the guy didn't put hardener first, the end of his pour was staying sticky so we set up heaters for about a week and it finally cured. It was a nail biter. It has held up for years now with no problems.

I have a question! I have been making keychains( or trying to ) anyways I measure equal parts of part a and part b mix for three minutes scraping sides of the cup and all that I have seen in videos. Anyways my question is once I pour the resin into the molds some will come out fine and hard others will be bendy not sticky just really bendy! Theses will all come from the same mixture of resin. They are also all in the same environment once poured! What is going on or how can I fix this

[@SuelemRhoden]

Maybe you're not mixing well and some parts get the right amount of hardner and others don't. Mix for at least 4/5 min always 😊

[@SuelemRhoden]

It could be something with pigments as well, don't use it too much or your pieces will never cure properly

[@KellieChasse]

Sorry for the delay, I've missed so many questions in here! @Suelem Rhoden may be spot on! Are you using art resin brand or something else? Each resin has it's own "FUNNIES"!! Art resin has been very spot on for me.

[@KellieChasse]

That may happen where your resin pools or if your substrate isn't level. Also if you overheat your resin (heating thins the resin) it will pool easier. You can try giving it 10/15 minutes in between your color pours. Don't wait too long so that your resin has begun to really set. Hope that helps!

[@FollowYourDreamss]

Hi what is the issue with my resin? I did my first coaster with ArtResin brand, after more than 72 hours I check it , it is nice!! but when I try to fold, I feel that it can be folded hardly "bendable", not strongly solid ? Now it more than 2 weeks but same bendable~!!!!! I don not apply ink or pigments, I mix well with equally amount of ArtResin product??? I try my second attempt more careful to adhere the instructions but the same second bendable coaster!!!

[@KellieChasse]

A couple of other things that can make it not cure hard: Thin coats, the temperature is too low or changed during curing, make sure if you rinse your molds there is no water in them. Or lastly, if your resin is old.

[@faditu2781]

I have the same problem with ArtResin too, the piece after curing would be hard but easy bendable specially if it is in a warm area, I have tried a lot of different things always the same result, I even tried a clear piece thinking it is something to do with pigment. But still no luck, I kinda gave up on the Artresin brand and want to try something else but not sure what options I have.

[@KellieChasse]

@@faditu2781 Interesting, I've been using it for years, and it's always cured hard. Even have it on my desktop. Maybe it's the climate in your area or the humidity? You should contact them to let them know. Maybe they have some ideas.

My resin started smoking and curing really fast. It then became stringy and hard to pour. I believe I didnt mix long enough and possibly could have mixed too much.

[@KellieChasse]

Hi Mel, This happened to me once with Art resin when I first started working with resin. I mixed up too much for my Large triangle mold. Check with your brand, most have a min/max mixing amount guide. Did you add anything to your resin? Sometimes it can have a reaction.

[@paulschons5790]

I just started working with resin and when I make a piece I get a hazy film that takes up 75% of the piece in the middle. What am I doing wrong?

[@KellieChasse]

It does take some practice, but there are a number of things to consider so it's hard to pinpoint. Here are my top potential reasons: Incorrect Resin-to-Hardener Ratio: Follow the resin-to-hardener ratio precisely. Too much or too little hardener can cause a cloudy or hazy appearance. Improper Mixing, or Moisture Contamination: Water or moisture in the resin or on the surface can cause a hazy appearance. Ensure your workspace and materials are completely dry. Finally: Temperature Issues: Resin curing can be affected by temperature. Make sure the room temperature is within the recommended range for your resin product. Too cold, temp fluctuations, or too hot can cause curing issues. Hope that helps! I also have a resin bundle course that may help on my website at www.kelliechassefineart.com/bundles/resin-bundle

Resin will be the death of me. I’ve not had mixing or drying mistakes, but a few tiny pinpoint bubbles came up the first time, after tons of torching. So I poured again.

It sounds like it may be excess heat shrinkage from over use of a heat torch. Also make sure your room temp is warm and consistent for the first 24 hours.

[@MileyonDisney]

NEVER! EVER! Use a torch on resin in a silicone mold! A torch is MUCH hotter than a lighter or heat gun, and it will melt the mold to the resin, ruining both!

Ugh, so sorry France, that is such a bummer when that happens! There is a number of things you can take a look at but here are the main culprits: Making sure your coat of resin is thick enough. If the resin is beginning to cure stop using your torch. Torching too close or creating enough heat in one spot that your resin starts to cure in those areas.
