Review on 🌞 Transparent UV Resin for DIY Jewelry Making, Casting & Coating - Hard Type Crystal Clear Glue for Sunlight Activated Crafts - 60g by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Slightly tacky to the touch

Generally easy to use and have minimal odor, but my products retained a tacky, smeared finish despite repeated UV curing. Update 11/6/18 if the problem is only with the original bottle that I received. I put the new bottle through a full cycle of testing, comparing it to the old bottle and a bottle of UV resin purchased elsewhere. They ALL felt slightly tacky, even after curing under UV light several times and for the following days. I don't really know what is causing this problem. They're hard to cure, but when I use two-part resins in smooth molds, the surface of the part is absolutely smooth and dry to the touch, like shiny plastic. However, all three UV resins leave a slight stickiness, like touching a lollipop on a damp day. Work with the paints and get great colors (I've mainly used powder paints on some work, which mix great, although you may need more time in the light for colored parts). I'll try to play with some other factors - like doing some details in a different place or using a different light. CONCLUSION: If you want to try UV resin, this seems like a great place to start.

The best UV resin I’ve tried yet! Perfect for my smaller crafts like key chains.
