I bought this to preserve some shells from the beach. It's very clear and if you get a couple bubbles they go away easily with a hairdryer. Super easy to mix and the self leveling makes it even easier. Just pour and leave the dry.

I never poured epoxy before, but I am done a MASSIVE amount of research on this, so I offer this review and some tips based on some fo the criticisms of this epoxy I have seen.I bought this to do 2 countertop pours. I ended up buying 4 gallons, because I am going to do an end table later.I haven't done the countertop pours yet, but did little test pours on 2 small peices of plywood. They came out quite nice. I did not watch them closely because my primary purpose was to test pour to make sure they would cure and to know how long before I take off edge tape to fully coat the sides.I tested them because these have a 20 to 30 minute gel time. That seems faster than StoneCoat and others. Alsom the maxc pour depth is 1/4 inch, so that's good for a countertop, but not if you have a 'river' type table or more depth to fill. Cures faster, so you have less working time, and since you are only recommended to do 1/2 gallon mixes at a time, to do a full countertop, you have to mix and prep multiple 1/2 gallon buckets. Mix them all at the same time and pur them all together, due to the fast gel time.You have to get your edge tape off sooner so you can smooth it out and allow it to level before it gels too much. I am going to have to do my pour, customize the look, and pull the tape off in 10 min total. That's what I will do in a 65 degree room.WATCH LEGGARI AND STONECOAT VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE.Make sure you torch the epoxy to get bubbles out. Heating will speed cure time but also will help the epoxy level out. You have to smear bare spots to remove surface tension so the epoxy will flow and fill properly. You have to calculate and pour enough epoxy. You have to work fast if pouring a countertop.Make sure you mix the epoxy for 3 or 4 minutes, and do not skip this step or cut it short. It will not harden if you do not mix it right. If you want an opaque (not clear at all) look, make sure to use enough ink or dye or mica. Remember that you should wait 24-72 hours for the intial hardening, and that it will harden more over the next 28 days. I do not plan to keeping anything on the countertops until at least 14 days after the pour.Plan on being present at the pour for an hour or more. Look at your epoxy continuously for the first 20 minutes after you finish the pour, and torch the epoxy and pay atttention to your edges. Fix any mistakes as soon as possible. This usually just means taking out any debris and smearing the colors. If you catch them early, they meld together and look nice. Go over your tabletop pour every 5 minutes to torch or fix any bubble or drips. You can mix a little more to coat your tabletop sides or use the extra in your bucket to do so, which is better because the extra from the bucks is already thicker and will stick better. Use your gloved fingers or a paintbrush.Make sure you have a roll of paper towels to wipe your glvoed hands so you do not get epoxy all over your torch or heatgun, etc. Make sure you tape everything off including your floor and cabinets so the drips are contained.COnsider whether you want white countertops where there is any sun. All epoxy yellows over time, especailly if out in the sun. Consider a more intricate color to hide yellowing and any inperfections, which are always a possiblity. A complex deisng makes little screw ups hard to see.If you think the project through, I think you will be in good shape.I will update theis review adnfter my countertop pours, and then again after a few months of use, to address whether the surfaces are hard enough for light use in a laundry room.

I love this epoxy. It is crystal clear and does not have a lot of bubbles. This product was very easy to work with on my project. Mixing was easy as it is a 1:1 ratio. No loud odor and it drys/sets in 12 hours. The quality is well worth the cost because with epoxy you get what you pay for.

Mixing is the only thing I don’t like. You must mix well and for longer than you want to… If not you will not have a good product.

This is easy for beginners or experts. I've poured 4 gallons of this epoxy and had bubbles once, and it was my fault. I poured about 3/4 of an inch, you are not supposed to go more than a 1/4 inch. Overall finish is crystal clear and very glossy. I have only used mica powders for color and they mix very well. I highly recommend this epoxy.

I tried the smaller bottles first. Wanted to find something easy to use and not expensive. Low bubbles without doing all the stuff needed for other resins like heating mixture, slow stirring, letting sit for a while. It does take longer to cure than others I have used. Most large pieces are hard in 24 hours, the thinner pieces take longer sometimes days. The downside and big downside is the smell. I have the area I work in ventilated with a fan blowing but the smell is so strong and overwhelming, others in the area check to make sure that I’m working with proper ventilation and ppe. Days later some of the pieces still continue to smell like fumes, While it is inexpensive and extremely easy to work with will have to switch as I’m fearful based solely upon the strong odor that it may be placing my health at risk even with ppe.

Right now I’m at 24 hours and my pieces are still very flexible! I’m hoping they harden up because this isn’t my first rodeo with resin! I try new things often! The positives are it had a lot of bubbles when stirring BUT it did degas itself very well! I mean the bubbles were popping and it almost looked like soda pop 😂 that’s how fast it was degassing it looked carbonated! It’s pretty clear! It seems beautiful my only concern is the long cure time on it! So with that being said I ordered the 4 hour (.which i accidentally ordered the regular anyway) I have hopes for the four hour and I will review it! I’m not sure on smell because I wear a respirator! I don’t stand around and smell resin 😂 here’s hoping to full hard cure UPDATE!! My curing room was only 65 degrees and this cures between 70 and 85 and it did fully cure and is hard as rock but that four hour of theirs is 🔥
