FAQs

How long does it take to dry?

With a UV torch, the resin dries in 2-4 minutes. In sunlight, it dries in 5-10 minutes. On a cloudy day, drying takes 20-40 minutes.

Can I use other types of paint with the resin?

It is best to mix the resin with inks. Other paints may not work effectively.

How should I store the resin?

Store the resin in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

What if I get the resin on my skin?

Wash the area immediately with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.

Can I layer the resin?

Yes, you can apply multiple layers. Ensure each layer is fully cured before applying the next.

Troubleshooting

Resin remains tacky after drying.

Ensure the resin was exposed to sufficient UV light or sunlight. If using a UV torch, make sure it is close enough to the resin, and extend the drying time.

The color is not consistent.

Ensure the ink is mixed thoroughly with the resin before application. Use consistent amounts of ink each time to maintain the same color.
