ENVIRONMENTAL Environmental Technology 16-Ounce Kit Lite Pour-On, High Gloss Finish (2016), Clear (02016)

I use this stuff all the time for small woodturning projects mostly. I turn vases for my dearly beloved and use this product to make the inside waterproof. It works very well for a couple of reasons:1. It completely seals the wood, period. Absolutely, if used correctly.2. It provides a smooth finish for the interior and means I don't have to sand like a madman to get a nice final finish.So I just sand interiors to about 120 grit or so, which seems to provide a good substrate for this product, and then after mixing, pour it in and rotate the vessel until it is well coated. Let it dry for a few days in my case and add flowers and water. Result: a very happy lady.A few helpful pointers here (I have learned the hard way):1. have all your materials ready and the workpiece in position2. use PRECISE measurements of equal parts. Don't weigh it, measure it (as the instructions say)3. I use disposable plastic cups like the little Dixie bathroom cups (it only takes a couple ounces for a vase, usually)4. popsicle sticks (craft sticks, etc) make a great mixing tool and they are cheap5. mix until your arm is tired. :-D Scrape the sides of the mixing vessel frequently6. pour and leave it alone. other than blowing on the surface to remove bubbles, don't poke around at it. you'll be glad you didn't.

As a resin jewelry beginner with no prior experience, I was stunned at the number of resin types and brands and more than a little nervous to trust online reviews. I finally picked this one, admittedly with some hesitation, because it seemed to be multipurpose and have pretty decent reviews. It turns out my concerns were for nothing; everything I've made with this resin has turned out well. It's easy to use and has very precise instructions as well as a simple 1:1 mixing ratio. The resin itself dries beautiful and clear, is sturdy yet pliable when thin, and has no trouble with additives such as color and pearlizing powder. As long as I follow the instructions, it leaves virtually no bubbles. I've used it both with molds and as a sealant/varnish for other items, and it has done well for both.I realize there are many other uses for this product, and I can't speak for all of them. But I can assure my fellow jewelrymakers that this resin is a good quality and easy to use. This is definitely the brand I'll be getting from now on.

My thoughts is I never done this before and boy I would hate to ruin my 75 dollar table I just made. But I took the chance and I think it came out very nice. You really have to create a border, I have no clue why they would say to brush the sides while letting it set? No sense at all. I simply placed tape as you can see around it and it seemed to work just fine. Let it dry for 24 hours and off it came, no issues! But definitely have a cheap hot air gun / blower in your immediate proximity. This helps bring any bubbles to the surface and make them disappear that "You" will create while stirring. My opinion also is to stir it even more than the required time, you have plenty of time to set this up. At least 20 mins to half an hour with out any problems. (4 X 4 16 ounce kit) By then your leveling will be done and your scope of bubbles should be done also. Seriously check out the other prices and I chose this one and to me I'm so pleased! I just ordered another one this size the 16 ounce! Where protective gloves and throw away anything you mix it up in. You will be fine! Best of luck well worth buying this product!

If the two components are mixed accurately 1:1 as described in the instructions the epoxy resin cures fully in 24h @ 23oC. In my case, the product was spread manually over the surface of a (well dried) cedar coffee table top. The use of a silicone spatula to spread the epoxy resin allowed me to use this product on wooden slats and to pre-treat exposed wood knots as well. I put two layers (the second layer was laid on once the first was fully cured) and so far the glossy finish looks great with no need for special maintenance even when the table top is kept outdoors. Sunlight has not darkened the product to a significant extent. It is exactly what I was looking for, it was easy to use and the end result is better than I thought. This resin also works well for coating graphics, e.g., drink coasters. Highly recommended.

My kitchen countertops are of marble and they don’t hold a shine. The countertops look like they’re glass! It wasn’t an easy job but it was worth the effort. Just make sure to follow the instructions. I mean it.👍👍

I used this on a bathroom counter top over some "granite effect" spray paint, the results were excellent. If you follow the mixing directions, you should have no trouble with it setting up. There are plenty of YouTube tutorials on application, watch a few of those before using. If you are using this on something that will require it to drip over the edge for coverage, be sure to cover EVERYTHING. It will flow a lot more than you expect it to. If you need to tape anything off, remove the tape about 3 hours after application; a piece of advice I did not heed and had some trouble getting the tape removed when I went to take it off 12 hours later. One word of caution, buy more than you think you will need. The estimated coverage listed on the box is not totally accurate. The coverage listed for the 16oz is 4 sqft, and I used every drop of the kit on a very small counter top thats a shade under 4 sqft. It's worth it to have the extra on hand in case you need it, rather than be left with an uneven surface because you ran out.
