ArtResin Epoxy Resin

$49.00 – $429.00

ArtResin is a high-gloss epoxy resin clear coat that can be used as a durable protective layer over your artworks as well as to create gorgeous resin art pieces. It is also certified food-safe by USFDA and thus great for making serving ware. This is the same brand of resin that we usually use in our studio for workshops. ArtResin Epoxy Resin highly recommended for coating projects, RTI Casting Epoxy Resin recommended for casting projects. We have chosen to use ArtResin for the following reasons:

SAFE. CLEAR. EASY

  • Safe – No VOCs. No fumes. No solvents. Non-flammable. Safe for home use, no respirator needed.
  • Clear – Chemically engineered to provide superior clarity for long-term non-yellowing performance.
  • Easy – Self-levelling nature, 1:1 user-friendly mixing ratio and countless how-to videos and resources for project ideas on the ArtResin website.

This is a two-part resin that is to be combined in a 1:1 ratio. So, when purchasing 1000ml, you will receive two bottles — 500ml Resin and 500ml Hardener.

Description

As part of our Project R initiative, we purchase this product only in its bulk packaging and repackage to smaller bottles for sale. Not only does this create cost savings for us as a small business, but also translates into cost savings for you as the consumer. The repackaged bottles are made of sturdier material and designed to be easily refillable and able to be used for a longer period of time. The bottles are also clearly labelled with the brand that has been repackaged.
Same product, same quality. Different packaging, but better for you and for the planet! For the original packaging, you may want to consider purchasing the largest volume listed, and do email us to confirm before purchase.

 

ArtResin has been certified by the American Society for Testing and Materials as non-toxic when used as directed (conforms to ASTM D4236). It is formulated using the highest quality materials and therefore produces no VOCs (volatile organic compounds) or fumes. It is a clean system, meaning there are no solvents or non-reactive diluents—everything in it reacts so nothing is free to become airborne and cause health issues. It is also non-flammable. For all these reasons, it is therefore classified as a non-hazardous material and is shippable by air. Furthermore, many curatives have a powerful odour, however ArtResin has only a low odour and is applicator friendly. View the Safety Data Sheet and Technical Data Sheet for this product.

HANDLING

  • Combine Resin and Hardener by volume in 1:1 ratio. Stir well for about 3 minutes until the mixture turns from cloudy to clear
  • Handle with gloves for ease of washing up and as good safety practice
  • Non-flammable under normal use conditions
  • Work in a well-ventilated space to minimise exposure to any fumes released while torching
  • Pot life of 40 to 50 minutes at 23 to 25ºC 
  • The ArtResin epoxy resin cure time is 24 hours (hard cure), however you can touch the surface after about 8 hours without it feeling sticky. It reaches its full cure at 72 hours
  • Can be applied on anything from wood to fabric to canvas, to paper and ceramics, etc

STORAGE

  • Store away from direct heat and light, at temperatures between 10 to 32ºC 
  • Replace the lid securely after use to reduce exposure to air
  • Recommended shelf life of 6 months in opened bottles, or 1 year unopened
  • Do note that resin will yellow with time, but that does not affect the curing capabilities of the resin.

SAFETY MEASURES

  • ArtResin conforms to ASTM D-4236, meaning it has been evaluated as safe for home use. It is considered a non-hazardous material and is non-toxic when used as directed, however there are some common sense safety precautions that every user should follow:
  • If in contact with skin, clean promptly with soap and water
  • If in contact with eyes, flush with water repeatedly and do not rub. Seek medical attention immediately
  • If respiratory discomfort occurs, move the person to fresh air
  • If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Contact your physician immediately 
  • Note from Room To Imagine: While ArtResin has been certified food-safe, we recommend that you use it for mainly art purposes. If you do use it to resin tableware, do avoid putting the items in the dishwasher, microwave and oven just to be on the safe side.
