RESIN4DECOR
Epoxy resin

The epoxy resin from RESIN4DECOR is a versatile casting resin that has been specially developed for use in the fields of arts and crafts, jewellery production and mould making. It is characterised by its particularly high strength and optimised viscosity. The product is free of bubbles and is also odourless. The curing time is 12 to 24 hours, which is ideal for artistic projects in particular.
Furthermore, smooth transitions can be observed on surfaces without discolouration or flaking. The cast epoxy resin is characterised by its high resistance to water, scratches and UV radiation. The product is particularly suitable for precision work such as jewellery, kitchen decor, tables and worktops.
RESIN4DECOR offers safe, VOC-free products that are compatible with pearl powder pigments for paint. However, it should be noted that this is a high quality but harmful product and should be used with caution.

  • Versatile areas of application
  • Very firm
  • High resistance to water, scratches and UV radiation
  • VOC-free
  • Harmful to health if used incorrectly

The company RESIN4DECOR presents an epoxy resin with a very positive appearance. The epoxy resin is mixed with the hardener in a 1:1 ratio and can be processed within 45 minutes.
If the mixture is processed correctly, a smooth and glossy surface is produced that is free from stains and discolouration. Handling the resin is straightforward and requires no specific skills or knowledge.
The epoxy resin is water-, scratch- and UV-resistant, so it does not yellow even when exposed to sunlight. The resin is also odourless and pleasant to handle.
All in all, RESIN4DECOR offers a high-quality epoxy resin that is suitable for both beginners and experienced artists.

*Themaximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.6 stars. In individual cases, there are criticisms that the curing does not take place as expected. On the other hand, the crystal-clear and odourless exposide resin as well as the good curing are positively emphasised. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the simple handling and easy mixing are well received by customers. However, consumer criticism of the difficult curing process was not justified.

Prices of up to €39.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very cheap products are available from as little as €18.99 . The exposide resin from RESIN4DECOR is therefore currently in the middle price segment with a price of €29.90. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
