  • Polishing resin is a STRUGGLE. It takes time and patience and even a little practice. In this video, I show you my personal method on polishing resin. Please leave any comments, questions, or even suggestions below!
    Thank you to Mirka for sponsoring this video! I have used my Mirka sander for about 2 years and I LOVE my sander; it's one of the best upgrades I have made in my shop by far!

    You Rock! Your video drove me to buy the MAS epoxy, and some items on your Amazon resin list.
    Question: Any tips for cleaning the mixing pails and mixer drill attachment?

    • @stonemillandco
      @stonemillandco  Před rokem +1

      Awe yey! And I let the resin cure in the plastic mixing cups and then I flip them over and gently hit them with a rubber mallet and then squeeze the sides a bit till the resin pops out. Sometimes it’s easier than others. And for the mixers… ha. I just let them drip and cure and usually leave the resin on there. So not much help there!

      We have found that Alcohol and Acetone work well IF you allow it to soak a bit.

    You are wasting a lot of time sanding through the grits.. the first level of paper you use removes any imperfections and flattens the surface.
    The each of the remaining grits only needs to remove the peaks left by the previous level of paper that was used before it... with an orbital sanding, all grits after the first will only take a few passes back and forth, or 10-20 seconds on each area MAX (this assumes you aren't skipping more than one grit at a time). Any longer than that and you're just wasting time sanding material away and not actual making the surface any smoother.
    The LOWEST point of the valleys left by the intial grit should theoretically be the lowest point of any other grit to follow, ultimately becoming the finished surface once all of the peaks are removed.
    In other words, you're removing base material with the initial grit ONLY and flattening the sanding marks with the proceeding grits.. i.e. You're going from this: '`'`'`''`'`'`'`'` to this: _________ in steps like this: ```'`''`'`''`''`'`' -> \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ -> VVVVVVVV -> vvvvvvvvvvv -> , , , , , , , , , , -> ________

      @@jefferyf6930 you'll never get a glass like finish stopping at 320, unless your spraying a clear coat or putting and epoxy top coat. but when you're doing it like in this video I go all the way up to 1500, not skipping any grits, doing 4 passes on each grit going as slow as she is, any if you only do one or two passes you'll never get rid of the swirl marks, then after 1500 , 3 passes with Mirka 45 , 2 with Mirka 15 and 2 with Mirka 5 . that's my process and it works good. if you see little swirl marks after 800 or 1000, sand them out with a sanding block and your hand, then move up to the next grit. good luck !
