UV and Epoxy resin together - a controversial subject

Hi I'm Wendy a resin artist and crafter.
In this short video I am showing you how I used UV and Epoxy resin in the same project with success and without worry they would come apart.
Following my last video I thought I would give you an example of when it does work well.
If you have any questions, comments or ideas, please use the comment section below and I will get back to you.
Thanks for watching
Wendy

[@pamcullen537]

Hi Wendy, can’t go wrong with holographic, makes everything look special. Love this as beautifully simple & definitely worth a try. Hugs 🦆💕

[@Toonpish]

Simple is sometimes the best. Don’t over think things like I do a lot 😂😂😂

[@jaykb6587]

At this point, I'm afraid my Cricut is destined for my daughter or daughter-in-law. I'm just not that motivated to get into my computer. It seems like after such an expensive investment, it should be used. Having just recently been evacuated due to flooding (Cricut got first choice of car space), it just... disillusioned me more. I'm so glad to see you using and enjoying yours.

[@Toonpish]

Sorry to hear you was flooded out 🥲 That’s very stressful 🥲 I totally get the motivation thing too. What ever you decide, I’m sure someone will use it 😀👍❤️

[@TrackerLorna]

Beautiful🥰🥰

[@Toonpish]

Thank you so much Lorna 😀👍❤️

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

You vinyl cut outs are great. And the sign with the resin over the cutouts is wonderful. Your sign reminds me of something near and dear (

[@Toonpish]

Wonder why you like it Doug 😂😂🤗 Glad you liked it hun. Thanks for watching 😀

[@carmengill6990]

We recently had storms where I live and a tree fell on a neighbors house. They cut the tree down and it is still in pieces in his yard. I’m going over there after work to see if they will give me some pieces to do some resin projects with!!!! This video was my confirmation because I was wondering if I should do it!!!💜💜💜

[@Toonpish]

Oh yes 😀😀 pour neighbour though 😳😢 You will need it to dry out for a while though 😀😀💜

[@lindaeastment4542]

HI Wendy, WOW you done an absolute fantastic job of your Sign I really loved it thanks for sharing 👍…………Wendy when I Watched your video you done putting resin on a Cured coaster you really did Inspire me I had a coaster I wasn’t very happy with so I made a rose using my mold & put it on top using resin & my goodness it Completely transformed my coaster so I would just like to say a very big thank you 🤗✨❤️👍 Lin

[@Toonpish]

Hi Lin I’m so chuffed that I inspire people. I really love your comment ❤️ it’s all I really want to do😀😀😀 Thank you so much for this wonderful comment. 🤗 You have made my day 😀😀😊😊👍❤️

[@mizzuzie3338]

It looked like a fun little project! That holo paper really took it to the next level. I'll try uv-resin as sealing on wood, it's faster than a few coats of varnish.

[@Toonpish]

It is faster definitely 😂😂 Let me know how you get on if you do 😀👍

[@LisaVornhagen]

That's pretty cool! I love the holographic vinyl!

[@Toonpish]

It’s really pretty vinyl 😀😀 this hangs in my garage 😀😀❤️👍

[@ownsacat]

Very cute.

[@Toonpish]

Thank you June 👍❤️

[@marycronin1167]

Fabulous video as always Wendy your so multi talented 👍

[@Toonpish]

Aww thank you so much Mary. I just love crafting and all forms 😀😀😀😀

[@WoodWizardrybyColin]

Cool idea hun

[@Toonpish]

Thanks sweetie 😀👍❤️

[@carolstewart1704]

It's gorgeous! And thank you for bringing up the uv together with epoxy issue! Im always surprised when ppl use uv resin to seal shaker charms they have made with epoxy!😅😅😅 I'm sitting here thinking "oh they're gonna end up with a mess of baby oil all over!" Lol definitely need to encase them whole with uv if they want to do that safely I'd say! 😂 Even if I do that I'm always sure to sand it up roughly and clean again thoroughly!! I don't want my stuff falling apart or making a mess for my customers! 🙀

[@Toonpish]

I don’t make shakers but would imagine it could cause a bit of a mess. I have seen videos of that particular use of UV resin and now I’ve tried it myself, I know it’s not advisable 🥴 You sound very professional in your approach. Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it 😀👍

[@carolstewart1704]

You are too sweet 😅 like most of us, it's more of a live and learn type thing.. many tries, many fails lol. Been playing with resin only three years or so, but also watch a lot of tutorials so I feel like that has rly given me an upper hand! Ppl show how they make things, what works, what doesn't, rly helps me not to have to do AS MANY experiments on my own 🤣 so i very much appreciate when you and others take the time and put in all this work to teach us what u have learned too!! 🥰

[@Toonpish]

Yes I totally agree as I am learning all the time and never want to stop learning 😂😂 that’s why I bought a cricut and I watch others who know about cricuts. I’m glad they put up the tutorials too 😀😀

[@carolstewart1704]

We must be kindred spirits!! Haha I crave to learn "all the things!" too! 😂🥰

[@Toonpish]

Great minds 😀

[@uniquecraftsnl]

It looks really nice. Nice video all together as well 👍🏼 Can I ask which epoxy you have used for the flood coat? I guess it is a bit of a thicker epoxy right? Otherwise it would drip off the edge while curing.

[@Toonpish]

Oh it did drip off but I had the back coated with liquid latex and that just pops off the drips when cured 😀 I believe it was vista cascade. One of my favourite ones as the price is not too bad. I did let it thicken a bit before pouring though. Thanks Unique Crafts😀 👍

[@frederickinetoreilly3059]

Have you tried using beading snippers? They are smaller than scissors and lighter, easier to cut vinyl with one hand

[@Toonpish]

No I will check them out 😀 Thank you so much 😊

[@Sherilh1]

Can I use UV resin over the top of dried to part resin on a project I’m making

[@Toonpish]

Yes you can! 😀😀 but not as glue to hold back water for a shaker because it will leak 😀👍

[@lynsey1863]

I wish i could afford a cricut 😞

[@Toonpish]

It took few a few years to buy it. Maybe one day you will 😀😀👍❤️
