Superclear EPOXY Resin Kit Crystal Clear 2 Gallon Resin Epoxy Kit for Casting Resin, Art Resin, Mica Pigment Powder, River Tables, Live Edge Tables, BAR Tops, COUNTERTOP EPOXY 1:1

I have done several countertops using a popular and well-known seller that is a bit more expensive. I wanted to try a cheaper alternative but did not want to give up the quality. I tried this product as an alternative to do an exotic kitchen countertop pour, and I was not disappointed. It is a bit thicker, so it does not cover as easily. I found heating with a hair dryer moved it around quickly though, so I just needed to get used to a slightly different consistency. This stuff is thicker and cures a bit faster, but I actually like that it cures quicker, because I did not have to wait around nearly as long before removing the tape from the edges. Now that I have used it once, I can confidently say it is a good product, it just works slightly differently from what I had used before. No huge differences, it is just thicker and cures a bit faster, but again, that turns out to be a positive. Another benefit I found is that this epoxy has few if any bubbles, and I did stir it with a drill and paint paddle stirrer. I mean few if any bubbles occurred in the epoxy at all. The key to stirring is to keep the paddle in the epoxy and to hit the bottom and sides fully and stir it for a good 3 to 4 minutes. Once you no longer see any of the white streaks, it is thoroughly mixed. I had no soft or sticky spots at all, and it was nice and dry and hard within 20 hours when I went back to check it. The tops were perfect and I'm more than pleased. If you are having problems with soft or sticky spots, you are probably not mixing it properly. Do not be afraid to mix with a drill and paint paddle, as that worked well for me. In the end, I got a beautiful set of counter tops at about half the usual costs. I give it 5 stars for now. I will try and update this later as to how well it holds up but mixing and pouring and the outcome so far are first class! I give it a full 5 stars for now. No smell at all, very clear so far, mixed easily and the colors are perfect.

Easy to use, great results, good price

I have been working with resin for over 8 years and hands down this resin is phenomenal. No yellowing and quick drying are my reasons for using this epoxy. I am buffing to a high gloss shine after 24 hours. My clients are very happy with my pieces made with Superclear.

I've been in the epoxy game for years, and have used many different products and have installer status with other brands. This 4star review is for their 1:1 ratio surface epoxy. I think this company's de ep pour product is a great formula for that intended use. Short version: This product works fine for the price, but there are better 1:1 epoxies for a little bit more money . I've have gotten good results with it, but I've been doing this a long time (see photos attached). Pros: it is very reasonably priced, fast shipping, it hardens to a clear decently tough top coat finish (haven't used long enough to comment on uv resistance). Cons: it seems to trap alot more bubbles than most products I've used. I've found myself continually torching this product to remove excess bubbles alot of which are micro bubbles that pop like carbonated soda. It has cure time similar to most 1:1 epoxies, but doesn't mix as well if you add a second accent pour after the initial flood coat (finish looks different). I've found that I need to pour my detail colors all in one first pour for it to blend properly. As all 1:1 epoxies do, it will heat, harden, and spoil if left still in a cup with in any sort of volume, so be quick about it or have someone constantly stirring anything not poured yet. It also has a stronger smell to it. My assistant whines about it. If you have experience, for the price, it's worth a try. I'm using it to make cheaper sample boards for showrooms. If youre new to epoxy, this product may not give you the results you want as easy as others might.

This is my go to resin for all my artwork. It is easy to use, easy to mix and has top quality clearness. I've seen my artwork from five years ago and the art looks exactly like the day I finished them. The value for the product is outstanding. I've paid much, much more for "art resin" and been extremely disappointed.
