Dangerous
I'm a builders daughter and have done just about every home improvement possible. THIS STUFF IS DANGEROUS! Followed the instructions exactly as it said, in fact my husband and I both read it thoroughly, even used a timer. We noticed at the end of the instructed time the container was very warm. As we got ready to pour, it started to boil! Boiled over and started smoking. I would not recommend this product what so ever!! Just wasted $80

    Didn’t harden
    Followed the directions exactly. After 2 hours it was still dripping off & ruined a $300 piece of butcher block it looked so bad

      Process
      Had good first time results. I coated a teak bar table. The mixing for 6 minutes, then switching containers and mixing for an additional 6 minutes or until the mixture reaches 90° took closer to an additional 20 minutes. Ideally where you do this project, the warmer the better. My shop was 65°.

        Instructions are clear and easy to follow. Make sure to get 3 mixing cups and a stir stick. The product is fantastic! Well worth the price. The finish is outstanding. Highly recommended.

        Turned countertop yellowish
        Looked great when wet but now that it’s hardened it has a yellow tint throughout and I’m kind of disappointed because now I have to redo my bathroom countertops.

          Do NOT BUY
          The people that sell this product should be ashamed of themselves. We bought this to cover a custom made kitchen island. Follwed the dorections to the T. Even watched youtube videos before we started. It never dried. Was sticky for over a month even in recommended temperature. Save yourself the money of having to scrap your project and starting from scratch.

            Best Epoxy
            I have created a lot of wood/resin table tops and after testing several epoxies over the years this is by far the best Epoxy that I have used, I always get great results and my customers have never complained, I would suggest to use a torch over a heat gun for air bubbles and make sure your measurements are spot on by using mixing buckets with measurements listed clearly on them, and use the 4 cup mixing method, by having 1 cup for A and 1 cup for B then mixing them together in the 3rd cup then pouring that into the 4th cup and then pouring, this way your making sure it’s mixed really well and you won’t be left with sticky spots in the final cure.

              I use this product for my acrylic coasters and paintings on wood. I really dont care for the 12 minute mix time. Another brand I use is only 2 minutes. Plus sometimes it tends to leave indentations and fingerprints even after curing. Other times, it cures hard as a rock. And you MUST get equal measurements. Off by just a drop and you will never get it to dry right. Too sensitive for me.

              Easy to Use
              Bought this to seal a bottle cap tabletop (picture attached). The resin was very easy to mix (6 minutes in one bucket, then 6 minutes in a second bucket), and spread evenly and easily over the caps. Wish it were more affordable, however, it is a great product. The only difficulty I had in using the product was not necessarily a product issue, but serves more of a word of advice for anyone who is attempting to encase bottle caps in resin. I had glued the caps to the table before pouring the resin, then fully submerged the caps with resin. There were air pockets between the bottom of the caps and the surface, which led to bubbles coming to the surface. I used a heat gun to pop most of them as the resin was hardening, but they kept coming and a few hardened at the surface (you can see them between the red caps in the photo). If anyone else is attempting a similar project, I would recommend doing a thin layer over everything, but not to the top of the caps, letting it set for a few days, then doing another layer. This would ensure that any bubbles that do occur at least do not effect the flatness of your surface.

              Can I use in the bed of a custom pickup?
              Works great on tables that I have redone and refinished.

                Did not coat as well as the brand I’m used to buying. Had pockets that still stayed runny for days. Not the quality I’m used to with the other brand home depot carries

                Not as good as it looks
                This epoxy did not work as well as another product I used. The instructions seemed dubious to me but I followed them and was not thrilled with my results. I used a heat gun but never got all the bubbles out so result was. It what I wanted.

                It worked very well, was simple to mix, poured out well. Using a hair dryer was sufficient to get bubbles to pop.
