GallantArt 16oz Epoxy

Well packaged and worked great for coating and casting which is pretty rare with other resins I have used. Easy to mix and pour, slight clouding when initially mixed but cleared up after thoroughly mixing. Final product cured hard and clear.

Low odor and didn’t have a lot of bubbles.

I ordered this product and the last 2 times the product was messed up in the bottle. Not opened. The resin was hard already. And the other bottle was not full .neither one was opened. The seal was still on both bottles.

First let me say, I am an experienced resin user. I decided to try this resin based on a YouTuber I follow. The clarity and viscosity I noted in his videos was of interest to me.I had noted previous reviewers notes on shipping and leakage issues as well.I got my bottles the other day. I only ordered the 16 oz. kit. I just wanted to try it out.Here’s what I found.When I opened the package, I noted the bottles were not packed very securely. Just a light cardboard box containing the bottles. I had no significant leakage from the bottles however it was apparent they had leaked at some point although there was no residue inside the box itself. One bottle was slightly off in volume. To some this may not be a big deal and if it isn’t, you need to learn a bit more about resin!It’s annoying to know that at some point, I’ll be left with more hardener than I have resin. I also noted the tops aren’t as secure as they could be. Just basically a milk carton lid. The mouth of the bottle is very wide as well, making pouring a bit tricky. So there’s that.The resin itself performs like any other resin.I used only a very small amount, 10 ml for my test. So I wasn’t going to degas in my chamber or use the pressure pot. I wanted to see how it would perform without those advantages.I did place the resin in a hot water bath until my temperature reached about 90 degrees.I made up some cabs and threw in some junk I had laying around just to see if it would cause more problems. No worse, no better there.But bubbles people, bubbles!It’s clear the YouTuber I referred to uses a degassing chamber to remove bubbles.I’ve gotten much better results with the resin I currently use.The working time was about on par based on my allowing my resin to sit/heat.This resin is also expensive compared to many brands out there and they perform much better.One in particular (that I use) is 13.00 cheaper for the same size kit.Overall, I’m not over the moon about this resin.It isn’t bad, it’s just not great either. It’s normal resin that has a higher price tag.I’ve attached photos of the packaging as well as the cabs I pulled this morning.

This stuff is pretty viscous. Lots n lots of bubbles when mixing but I use a pressure pot so I can’t say how well they naturally degas during curing. It is very clear but you can see in the pictures there were still some surface bubbles after the pot. Not many and they will be sanded away When I shape pendants. I think the higher viscosity will help keep smaller particles suspended though. I’m still gonna be stuck on my liquid diamonds when I need low viscosity for curing dioramas. It’s a good resin and a good price.

Was really excited to try this resin. Box was wrapped in plastic and no leakage. But, when I opened the box, the hardener was clear but the resin was very cloudy. (those are unopened bottles). I contacted the seller and they said that they have a few issues with this batch and for me to do a Amazon return. So that's what I will do. Will try again possibly in a month and update if so. 2 stars for the speediness of the seller response. Would not recommend buying at this time.Update: I ended up cancelling the return. I had googled "how to fix crystallized resin" from further talking with the seller. It did take about an hour with ~125 F water to fix it but it did clear up. I haven't made anything with it yet. But wanted to update this in case it could help anyone else.

Works great for me, I love to mix glow in the dark powder in it.

Just as good as the one I used to buy for alot less.
