Resin Wave Mistakes And How To Fix Them (Voiceover)

[@marlenedean1569]

Thank you for your video, i have watched it a number of times. I love your beautiful creation ❤

[@livingnatural4295]

I've never done an ocean or wave piece but I've done resin pieces on canvases. I'd suggest cleaning up the edges before they cure. That's one of the things I need to work on. Beautiful waves!

[@d.debellis5091]

Oh wow thanks for the tip about the white resin and letting it sit because I’m pouring the white resin and blowing it immediately and it’s just like blowing water so I’m going to try letting it sit like you recommended. Great video thank you so much

[@heavenssoapofisrael8323]

Thanks, really good, I'll try this

[@tlrmd4you]

THANK YOU!!!! I CANNOT MASTER THE INLET WHITE LACING, WHILE KEEPING THE WHITE EDGE!!!! I did just receive my jr white and cannot wait to try!! It has always just blurred out. I will try and let it sit to a thicker state and hope this works. Also, you are the first one who has said a low heat, but high speed to blow out. Now if I can just get the angle right to leave the edge and blow out to the fine lacing! You definitely have a ew stalker fan!!!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Ha ha I love stalkers! Glad I could help. I typically leave my heat gun on a low - med heat so I don't burn the resin or create dimples from too much heat. Should you find you still cannot achieve lacing it could be the combination of resin and white pigment brand. They are not all compatible. Thank you Taylor! Best of luck! 💙

[@clairez007]

Keep going you're getting there.

[@livingnatural4295]

This camera angle is perfect.

[@chelseawagner2559]

Excellent video. Sort and to the point. And I would comment on the miss perception that one needs to sand epoxy between coats if it gets hard. That really only applies for engineered applications. It is in the design of epoxy to stick quite well to just about anything. I have also found from sanding and polishing epoxy that even the fastest setting epoxy takes a minimum of three days to reach ninety five percent hardness and a week to ten days to fully cure. I suggest that you do a test by dripping some drops on some hardened epoxy and let that set a week and see if you can pop it off with a razor knife. Unless your epoxy has a substantial wax agent in it, it will not likely separate. And if it has the wax that can be removed with soap and water or a dewaxer in lew of sanding The wax agent is what makes resin shiny.

[@d.debellis5091]

Best tutorial -you get right to it ! my question is 1)put down a clear layer of resin then a line of white ? 2) Is the white applied directly or mix it with clear resin first then apply it ? 3). Can resin sit bet layers or must I make a new batch for every wave? I’m Doing this wrong I think !

[@debihunt4659]

Very nice and so pretty

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Thank you so much 😊

[@SashasRevenge]

You just saved me soo much grief. Thank you very much!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Great! I only wish someone had of told me. Haha 😂

[@SashasRevenge]

Just subscribed. I love your detailed information on the different techniques. That’s a new one! Thank you for your time and knowledge.

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

I’m thrilled you have found this video helpful. Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, Renda. ✨🦋✨

[@ronnietelowitz7706]

I can’t get the cells and lacing I’m using Castin Craft opaque pigment. Do I mix this with resin like you do with the other color’s Thanks for any help you can give me

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Castin craft is not compatible with art resin. Try changing one of them. 🌷

[@oyendrilagupta6378]

Hey, loved the video and your Techniques. I have tried my hands on the ocean waves but failed every time. How thick does the white pigment hAve to be to form lacings? I wait till it becomes like sugar syrup consistency, but the rest of the poured resin on the board thickens too and it becomes very hard to move the resin. It would simply spread on the entire board like clouds (no lacing or cells). What am I missing here please?

[@pegberthold3988]

Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your techniques and equally important, the materials used. I am very excited about trying this myself as a fledgling self-taught art student (in my 70's...never too late.) You have inspired me with great enthusiasm, and I cannot amply express what this will mean for me. I have wanted to attempt a dimensional nautical painting, but didn't know how to go about it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

You are so welcome! I am so happy for you and wish you all the best. Enjoy! 💙

[@Megamailh]

I ALSO ARE A 70+ NEWBEE RESIN STUDENT. WHAT;S BEEN THE BEST PART?

[@jeananderson8792]

Great video Michelle!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

So gappy you enjoyed watching it. Thanks Jean 💙💙💙

[@VeronicaTorresGarcia]

Beautiful!!

[@bennydsa2292]

Thanks for the tip ...that we have to wait for 15 mins before pouring .... which includes even white pigment that too has to be mixed together and wait for 15 mins ... correct?

[@SuperBrowndog1]

I noticed that you ran the white line directly over the clear resin line. I'll try that. My resin refuses to form the bubble foam look. I've tried using the lighter torch as well, with no luck.

[@angelageronimi7207]

Michelle, it is so beatiful. The White, is only paint ? Thank you for your answer

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

The white is only pigment paste mixed into resin. Thanks for your feedback 💙🙏💙

[@amalalkhaliafa7303]

Hey thanks for the video i tray to do it but I don’t get the cells on the waves?! Can you help me why ?!

[@jonathanveliz6191]

Great job, congratulations, one question: how much time did you wait when putting the white line and blowing it?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

For the third wave, I waited about 10 mins for the white to thicken prior to pouring. Its important that the white is thick. Thank you Jonathon for the positive support!!

[@heidicook5125]

Can you tell me the brand of heat gun?

[@ISAACP_THEGUTTERGUY]

what kind of wood is that?? And what sort of prep do you do to it??

[@sarlasadhwani5847]

Which ratio resin did you used

[@ForYouResin]

What is white colour brand?

[@K.ART_vlog]

so nice ❤️😍

[@tanujain7133]

Hello I am a new subscriber can you please assist how much quantity you have taken for this???

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

I apologise I cant remember but Art Resin has a online calculator to estimate how much you need.

[@asiawiniarska303]

Amazing! Do you need special paints for this? What is the name od this clear liquid?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Hi, it's called resin art and I used Art Resin with resin pigments. Definitely need resin pigments, not acrylic. Hipe this helps. Thanks!

[@stevestone07]

Love your videos especially a fellow Aussie. Im a bit disheartened! I have all the gear and not much idea... ive only started a week or so. My predicament is its winter here in country Victoria and im making these in my garden shed... The resin does take a bit longer to dry fully... I can get the Blues and clear sorted on my board but my white is a disaster.. when ever i try a wave its all thin and wishy washy... my first resin i bought it all caught fire but i have a really good one now with no odour... can you please give me a link or list as to all your colours you use for wave art? and any advice you think i need? Im practicing on small cutting boards until i get it right! thanks in advance...Stevie x

[@elumalais7637]

Very nice ❤️.. Which brand Resin you're using

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

I use Art Resin. 😊😊😊

[@bashooraalshawi3034]

What the temperature for heat gun i tried many times not working Any advice please

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

About medium heat.

[@jennieleegems]

Perfect ! Love your videos!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Thank you very much, Jennie!

[@hotchillichick67]

This is beautiful, and you explain very well. Just wondering though, if it’s left more than 24 hours and has to be sanded, what do you use? And how much sanding is needed?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

about 80 grit sand paper just a light sand to scuff it up.

[@ChrisThon]

Great video!

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Thanks Chris!! ⭐💙⭐

[@julieklink6359]

Hi Michelle can you please tell me what white product you use for the waves. Is it a mico powder or acylic paint or ink. Ive been using Atelier titanium white acrylic paint and having trouble getting any cells after blowing it out.

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Please see description. Thanks ✨😊✨

[@TV-se4ce]

Amazing good work 👏

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Thank you so much ⭐ 💙 💓

[@lakshmihariharasubramanian1547]

Hi .. lovely video.. Thanks for sharing with us.. To get good waves should i use 2:1 resin ? Or a regular 3:1 will work fine ? TIA

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Hi, the ration depends on the brand of resin. Art Resin uses 1:1 ratio. Check the instructions. I hope this answers your question?

[@waiwaiphyo9490]

Hi I am new to resin, what white color u use? Thanks

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Hello, These days I use Angel White by Le Rez Expressions. I've also used Titanium white by just resin and Iceland White by Art Tree Creations. They all work well with Art Resin.

[@jessicakragler2029]

What white paint do You use

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

For this piece I used titanium white pigment by just resin. Thanks 💙

[@easyrezin1450]

Can i ask if you mixed up clear and white resin at the same time? I believe that when we add pigments to resin it thicken quicker.. so am i right thinking that mixing them ip at the same time is the right thing to do..?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

I always mix my white first then let it sit for about 10 -15 minutes after I've poured my coloured pigments. Depending how long it has taken to pour the colours. I hope this makes sense? Thanks 💙

[@gesawisch4537]

Great project! Did you mix the white with Resin also or is it just white paint? If mixed with Resin what ratio did you use resin to paint?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Yes, I mixed approximately 5-10% of white pigment into resin. Thanks for your lovely feedback! 🦋💙🦋

[@قناةالتعلم-ف1ي]

Thank you amazing 🌷 can you please tell me how can I learn this art if you give me the name of this art pls

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. It's resin art and you can find all my video tutorials on this KZbin channel.

[@dhruvikakhinvasara2369]

Hey which heat gun did u use?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

My heat gun was just a cheap one from Ebay. It doesn't have a brand name. Its 2000W with an adjustable fan and heat setting. It came with the compressor nozzle. Be sure to get one that you can adjust the fan speed. I hope this helps. Thanks!

[@melinaa813]

What do you use to make waves?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Just art resin and white pigment. ✨

[@pegberthold3988]

With regard to the wood panel, what is the thickness, and is this something you can get from any store like Home Depot, or is it a special grade of plywood specifically for art? Thank you in advance.

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

It's a wood panel purchased from an art shop specifically for art. You may need to prime the board with a clear gesso first. Some woods may cause the resin to discolour down the track and may cause tiny bubble clusters. Gesso helps.

[@noorrida8895]

Low heat?

[@zainabmalik1024]

What is white ? Acrylics? Or what can you explain

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Please see description for materials. Thanks 😊

[@forza_boys4402]

Can't do it 😪

[@candacemanning6519]

Do you know why my Waves always look like fire flames instead of curved waves? I’m so frustrated. Your work is sooo beautiful. 😍

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

I feel you. I’m really not sure. Maybe you could try a different brand of resin or white. The right combo can make all the difference. Thanks, Candace! ✨🌹✨

[@christopherbrown5924]

Sheer Artistic genius

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

So kind. Thank you!!

[@mrmodelhobby]

Great video ! May I ask is the white wave made solely with white paint or white paint mixed with resin?

[@d.debellis5091]

That’s my question too

[@ivannramstor9162]

you are genius

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

So kind thank you for your positive feedback Ivann! ⭐🙂⭐

[@michelletindall4965]

Just double check on wait times between pour. You said you waited 8hrs then 12hrs without sanding. Am I understanding that correctly. And is 5hrs too soon?

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Yes, you are correct. I find 8-12 hours is a good time to pour another layer with Art Resin. Preferably 12. That way the resin is very firm but still tacky. If its too soft the wave will absorb somewhat into the layer beneath. Meaning the wave won't be very 3 dimensional. It will be flatter. Alternatively, these days I let each layer dry for 24 hrs between coats. Sanding between coats. I hope this helps. Thanks! ⭐💙⭐

[@werhuman8798]

What is your art resin ? It is 1:1 or 2:1. As i understand,it must be 1:1

[@MichelleTraceyArt]

Art resin is 1:1 thanks 🌈
