- The best gold for resin? What I wish I knew when I was starting out. This video is about the different gold pigments you can use and the effects they have in resin. What kind of look are you going for? Mica powder, acrylic ink, acrylic paint, resin pigment paste, metallic powders, gilding flakes, and alcohol ink. Each has their own distinctive effects. This is a long video, I have created chapters below and pinned a comment so you can skip through it.

What was the pink you used? What brand name?
Thank you for the lessons. There were many things I had not thought of so let me share with you how to make your own pigment pastes. Any color mica powder to the resin part of the mix only stir until you have the consistency of paste. I use the small plasic jars to mix up my colors. I still have some thst I mixed over two years ago. A small mix goes a long way so don't do big batches. I suggest that the resin mix you use would be the same resin you use for the paste. Also the thicker you mix your gold colors to a resin mixture the better it is after heat the resin, it will give you a gold nugget look thoughout the streaks. Thanks for your lessons. You teach a great class!
I’m going to try this!
@@ResinAsYouWish it works I promise. The gold doesn't go all nilly willy. Any color. I love sharing what I know works, but it does upset the people who sell pigment pastes. I like mixing colors like gold and an emerald green powder together, just awesome when heated after pouring. Have fun and oh yeah I ordered the two way tape, can't wait to do as you showed!
@@bonitablackburn848 what exactly happens when it heats up? Do the colors change a bit? And thanks for the tips!
I know this is an old video, but you’ve done more to teach me than anyone. I’m not at your level, but my stuff is good.
The moment you stopped what you were doing and loved on your kitty, I subscribed. I am owned by 4 kitties who would be very displeased if I hadn't 🤣. Thank you for this in depth comparison, it was incredibly helpful!!
EXCELLENT VIDEO
Thank you so much for sharing your BEAUTIFUL ART...
This is great and a lot of help! Would love for you to do one with whites!
You are my favorite resin artist on CZcams. You have so much talent and such amazing ideas
Thank you sooooooo much for this video!! I am a newbie at resin and have spent the last year watching instructional videos. You have cleared up so many of my concerns and questions about what golds to use. I have bought a bunch, not knowing how they will react with my pieces. This is invaluable information and I am so grateful you posted this!! Love you lots!!💖
Outstanding Presentation! Thank you for making and sharing this.
Thank you soooo much, I am having a difficult time with gold as well, this was so helpful!
Thank you so much Ive been working with gold and not sure which one would give the ffect I wanted this video saved me from spending money on the wrong golds. Your Awesome
Thanks for sharing all your info . 👍👏💓
Cheddar gold is amazing.... Thanks for your time
You are the best at explaining your techniques and video taping for us. Thank you too soooo much for all the resources 🙏🏻😊👍💕
This video is exactly what I needed to know before starting my next project so thank you !! 💋
Love the catto! Absolutely beautiful face.
This was a Super helpful video, thank you. It would’ve been interesting, though, to see both canvases done the same composition, just for a better comparison. It also would’ve been interesting to see if maybe the top of each line not been blown out, again just to see how each different type of gold sits, spreads, or floats on top of the resin.
Hi!! Thank you for this video. There are so many types of gold and colors. Thank you for showing all the options.
This is so informative, thank you!
I learned a lot from this - Thanks so much!

i watched the whole thing thank u
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the very informative video. Hi Cheddar you handsome little ham you
Thank you so much
I will be watching 👀
Your presentation is through and concise. I love how you manipulated most of them the very same.
Thank you for the time and explanation. This is an amazing video.
There is one more thing that I notice gold lovers being concerned with, and that is how some golds rise to the surface.
Testors gold paint is a good one for this effect. Now I've got to go sneak into your videos 🤗
Thank you
So interesting
CAN'T WAIT!
Thank y very much.♡♡♡♡
This is great information! Thank you. This will help me a lot. I have watched so many videos and most of them use some type of gold. It was good to see the individual effects that each one has. Have you tried misting plain 90% alcohol over the alcohol inks? I've seen this create some awesome lacing.
Hi, yes I have, I did that in my swipe effect tutorial, but I had my spritzer too close to the top, I'll play more with it in the future
love your video. what paint do u used for pink? so bright. thanks
I always get more affects when I use the heat gun 1st, let cool then torch.
Hello! I found this video incredibly helpful! Thank you for making this! I was wondering though - how much of the Artisan Pigment (the first example you did) did you mix in with the resin? I hear it's potent stuff that a little goes a long way?
I use a very small amount, it's like an 1/8 of a teaspoon mixed with 1.5 oz of resin (I don't measure them but that is about what it is) my little cups are 3oz cups and I don't fill them up
What did you use for the sparkle on your coaster?
Hi there thank you so much for your very informative tutorials, I have learned so much from you. I have just got a new heat gun and was wondering what temperature and speed you use yours on? thanks again XX
Hi I usually use middle heat blowing on high - I have a video on heat gun tips to showing why I use the blow settings 👍
@@ResinAsYouWish Hi, many thanks for your reply, thats a great help and I will check out the video on heat gun tips. Thanks again XX
Very Interesting to watch. Thank you. What type of resin do you use?
Hi, thanks. I have posted links to everything in the vid description
❤
Hello dear.. you spread the color using heat gun or hair dryer?
Wonderful information thank you! Question about metallic powders how do you tell the difference when buying? Like is a metallic pigment the same as the metallic powder you used?
Hi the metallic powder actually has metal content - click the links in the description to read what the contents are of each of the powders used - this will show you the difference 👍
So with the double sided tape, it's applied to a resin coat, covered with gilding flakes, brushed off and then ANOTHER layer of resin is applied over the top?
Yes, it’s also a technique used on gift cards - tape on paper, then gild the tape. 👍
Can I just ask please the let's resin pack that has the 4 colours, gold, copper, silver etc. Can you use as a floating pigment or it sinks and doesnt work like that? If you wanted to use to create aatble gold effect that's what I am thinking of. The last gold pigment you used to tap and cause the metallic spots what was it please? Many thanks
Metallic powder floats on top, so the mehron and lets resin metallic powders will work
Which gold chrome is best to use on white background and give marble effect
Probably the metallic powders
@@ResinAsYouWish any one in mind?
I'm looking for a 24k color rich yellowish/bright gold .
By the way can you mix powder and spay paint and so on?
@@goovitoo hi, in the videos description there is a link to ‘let’s resin power’ it’s a small box with 4 colors of gold to choose from. Mixing your types of colored resin together should work great - but mixing spray paint and metallic powder in one cup - I’ve never tried 👍
Fascinating and well done video. I am new to epoxy resin. I work with wood and would like to carve a simple design into the wood and fill it with gold. No lines thicker than a pencil and about 1 or 2 mm deep. I want it to look like a gold inlay in the wood. Which product would you recommend I add to the resin. Thank you.
The metallic powders or the gilding flakes
@@ResinAsYouWish I tried the metallic powder and it came out a brilliant reflective gold, BUT, when I sanded it lost all its brilliance and turned into a milky dull green. It is almost as if all the mica powder floated to the surface and then I sanded it off. Any suggestions?
@@OneFishHawk55 yes, tune into the last chapter of this video where I discuss this issue 👍 see 48:30
@@ResinAsYouWish Dang, I missed that the first time through. I guess next I will try a different approach. 1. cut inlay into wood, 2. fill inlay void with clear resin, 3. pack resin inlay with gold flakes and 4. Sand gold flakes smooth. Have you ever sanded flakes?
@@OneFishHawk55 yes, anything not under the surface of the resin will sand off 👍
What type of heat gun do you recommend?
hi, I have put links in the video description for the guns I use. What you are looking for in a heat gun is the following features: one that has a low - high heat/temp that you can adjust AND a high/low air flow. Not all the heat guns come with these options and end nozzles/tips, but you can buy them separately if you have a gun you like, but no tips

WARNING... Spray OUTSIDE... USE a MASK...
What kind of cat do you have, looks like a bangal. I want one 😭 also, which gold did you use in the thumbnail. Thats the exact look I'd like
Yes, he is bengal here is his page 😀- pin.it/6AKXhfJ
Hi , what pink is this?? Thankyou
It is called Ginger Bloom: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N7FVKLQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B07N7FVKLQ&linkCode=as2&tag=resinasyouwis-20&linkId=a9727ab1e20f3fa3645f04b6e5b13bab
good job
I would like to know your experiences of advertising on CZcams ??
Hi, I’m not sure what you are asking? Are you asking about the ads that CZcams runs on my channel?
@@ResinAsYouWish yes Ido
@@b_decor_arts once I had enough subscribers to monetize each video posted offers the option of running ads. I did discover each video must be updated to preferences or it just auto loads how many etc. not knowing that at first, all the ads running on my were not skippable - so I went in to make them all skippable. But I had to do it one at a time. Any subscriber who has the CZcams upgrade (monthly subscription ) won’t see any ads, and CZcams will not monitize anything without reviewing to make sure the content is good and there are no music you don’t have the rights - I have no control over what ads play
I use a pigment gold paste and it just doesn't work
What kind is it?
@@ResinAsYouWish resin pigment paste gold
Thanks for this video. I have a question for you about what materials would be best for a project I’m working on. Do you have an email or way that I can contact you…messenger maybe?
hi, I'm at Resinasyouwish@gmail.com
What kind of board are using?
It's a canvas cut-out from a craft store
This is for everyone…Please don’t have you’re animals around while you resin, their lungs are much smaller & their sense of smell much more intense & unless you have a respirator for them, you can really do them ALOT of harm..But otherwise thank you for the informative video.
