Hey Chris here and today I'm just going to test out the epoxy resin and I was given this for review
0:04
but I'll go ahead and give my honest opinion and first impressions. So right here we're going to
0:08
have two of them. We're going to have the hardener and the actual resin itself that have to be
0:12
mixed in in equal parts and it does nicely come with four of these measuring cups that go up to
0:20
100 mils as you can see. On top of that there's also going to be these two caps that can just be
0:27
placed on top over here just for easier access to squeeze. There are also four popsicle sticks
0:33
and this is just to go ahead and actually mix the resin and the hardener once you put it in
0:39
the whatever base you want to put it in. There's going to be some paperwork like some contacting
0:46
information and then also some instructions and then finally the most important part would be
0:51
gloves for safety. I just want to go ahead and try them out and today since I don't have a
0:58
exact mold what I'm going to be using is a makeshift mold which I'm going to go ahead and
1:04
show you in a sec but I'm excited for it because I think it's going to turn out really cool
1:09
but basically the plan is to use this lid over here once I put the resin and hardener in here
1:16
I can go ahead and put my coin and I want to see how it goes and turns out
1:23
So first things first, I have to pour equal parts into two separate cups, 10 milliliters
1:33
And there that 10 right over here And then same thing for the other one it gonna be the hardener and there 10 right there I can just go ahead and pour them
1:45
into this next cup right here and there is some stuck on the side so I just want
1:52
to go and use the popsicle stick to get as much out as possible and there now
1:58
The next thing to do is stir this for 4 to 6 minutes without lifting the stir and doing
2:04
it gently not too quickly to not form bubbles or anything like that
2:09
And this is what it looks like right here. Alright so that's about it
2:17
It's been roughly 5 minutes and now I just want to go ahead and pour this over here and
2:22
I have to go ahead and just do it slowly and whenever it does stay stuck to the side just
2:27
ignore it and not do anything there. All right there, the last drop went ahead and got in here
2:36
And now what I wanna go ahead and just put would be my dollar coin in here
2:41
And I just wanna center it as much as possible. And just push it in and wait for the resin
2:53
to go ahead and go on top of it. So it's slowly being engulfed, as you can see there
3:01
I'm just moving a little bit, and there. The thing is I don't see any bubbles on this so far
3:07
so I'm hoping it'll go ahead and come out real nice, but yeah, that's about it
3:11
Now all I have to do is wait some hours and see what I get
