Features :

1. Thicker Consistency: High viscosity resin is denser and more gel-like, which allows it to stay in place once poured or applied. This property makes it especially useful for projects where you want the resin to hold its shape, such as in layering, encapsulating objects, or creating intricate details in resin art.

2. Control and Precision: Because of its thicker consistency, high viscosity resin is easier to work with when precision is important. It doesn’t drip or run as easily as low-viscosity resin, providing artists with better control over their designs and allowing them to create finer details.

3. Slower Flow and Curing Time: High viscosity resins typically have a shorter working time compared to low-viscosity resins. This allows artists more time to manipulate the resin before it starts to cure, which can be particularly useful for intricate applications or multi-layered projects.

4. Ideal for Thick Layers and Vertical Applications: High viscosity resin is well-suited for creating thick layers or for use on vertical surfaces because it resists flowing downwards. This makes it ideal for applications such as 3D resin art, geode resin, and other projects where you need the resin to stay in place without running.

5. Durability and Strength: The thicker consistency of high viscosity resin often leads to a stronger and more durable final product once it cures. This makes it suitable for creating items that require more structural integrity, like countertops, tabletops, and other heavy-duty applications.

6. Crystal Clear Finish: Designed to cure with a glossy, transparent surface, making it perfect for art pieces.

7. UV Resistance: High-quality artist resins include UV inhibitors to prevent yellowing over time.

8. Non-Toxic Options: Many artist resins are labeled as non-toxic and low-odor, though proper ventilation is still recommended.

9. Self-Leveling: Ensures smooth and even coverage on flat surfaces, reducing the need for extensive manual adjustments.

10. Working Time: Offers a reasonable pot life (20–40 minutes) for intricate projects .

Geode Resin Tips : 

1. Prepare Your Workspace:
   • Use a clean, dust-free environment.
   • Protect surfaces with plastic sheeting or silicone mats.
   • Ensure the temperature is around 70–75°F (21–24°C) for best results.
2. Mix Properly:
   • Follow the exact resin-to-hardener ratio specified (2:1).
   • Mix thoroughly for 3–5 minutes, scraping the sides and bottom of the container.
3. Eliminate Bubbles:
   • Use a heat gun, torch, or a toothpick to pop air bubbles after pouring.
   • Warm the resin slightly before mixing to reduce viscosity and bubble formation.
4. Add Pigments/Inclusions:
   • Experiment with mica powders, alcohol inks, glitter, and dyes to create vibrant effects.
   • Mix inclusions well to avoid clumps or settling.
5. Cure Properly:
   • Allow the resin to cure undisturbed in a clean, dust-free area.
   • Cover the piece with a box or dome to protect it during curing.
