FAQ\r
\r
- What kind of Resin do you use?\r
Envirotex Lite (see box in the video)\r
\r
-Where did you get it from?\r
Michaels craft store, but you can also find it at hardware stores under the name EPOXY resin. But you MUST buy the hardener too\r
\r
- How do you mix it?\r
It depends on the brand you use. Mine uses equal parts of two liquids\r
\r
- Is it expensive?\r
A huge bottle costs me 40$ and can make at least 300 resin pieces like this one.\r
\r
- Can I find cheap resin anywhere?\r
I dont think so, but if you do find some, let me know =D\r
\r
- My resin is still sticky, why?\r
Be sure you waited at least 20-24 hours for it to cure. Otherwise its possible you (1) didnt mix it well, so you have to make a new one or (2) didnt mix the right proportions of hardener and resin. In both cases, youd need to try again\r
\r
-Is resin toxic?\r
Yes! Keep it away from pets and children. Be sure to wear gloves when working with it. I have a huge tolerance for chemicals, so dont do as I do lol\r
\r
- What can I use to color resin?\r
Almost anything, experiment and have fun!\r
\r
- Is it hard?\r
Its a bit scary at first, but then you will improve VERY quickly. I failed on my first 4-5 batches, then I got better =D\r
\r
- What kind of paint did you use?\r
Acrylic paint\r
\r
- Can it break?\r
Its EXTREMELY durable. \r
\r
- Where did you buy the bail/lobster clasp/ made with love charm/chain?\r
Ebay has a great selection of these items. Beware of overpaying, so shop around ^_^\r
\r
-What kind of sticker did you use?\r
I used a PLASTIC sticker, if your sticker is made with a kind of paper, you will need to seal it, watch a sealing sticker tutorial here:
