    You should try a nail lamp for curing, great light spread, you can put the lamp over the pieces rather than moving the molds and they remain on a flat level surface unlike the platform in the Sunlu box. Finally, they cure in 1 to 2 minutes, faster than the box or torch.

    • @wendybabendy
      @wendybabendy Před rokem +2

      That's what I use - after doing gel nails for years, I love using a nail lamp (I have one for resin and one for nails) rather than trying to move my molds to a box.,

    • @Mariethechaotic
      @Mariethechaotic Před rokem +2

      I was just going to comment that suggestion, for people who can't afford the sunlu box. And yeah, they cure *super* fast. I use UV resin more than anything else. A torch would drive me insane. I always am working on another project for the 1-2 minutes the other one is curing so having to hold a lamp would hurt my adhd brain haha.

  • @ciomaria6137
    @ciomaria6137 Před 2 lety +9

    I find that sometimes strong sunlight cures too fast, and I see more shrinkage.
    So I cure it as much as I can with a nail light, then flip it over cure some more before demolding and then leave it out in the sun for a final cure to remove any stickiness.

    I've also brushed mica powder into a clear mermaid tail using UV resin in thin layers. It was a beautiful opaque rainbow blend. I cured bottom side after too was cured. No sticky residue. 💜

    Thanks Steve, your videos remain the best at teaching us about resin. You provide clear information, and easy to use links for all the items you use in the video for various countries. I love learning from you. For instance, I didn't know you shouldn't use UV resin for anything deep cast. I though UV just dried different and that was it, so thanks for that information, coz you've saved me making a costly mistake. God bless you and your family.

    I started out with UV resin, and Steve is right, about everything he is saying! He got me started on JDiction (& minibrushes! 😊) and, yep! --- best UV resin on the market! I *love* this stuff! I am now also using their regular epoxy resin, as well...and don't like using any other kind.
    Steve, I'm so glad you put this video out! Thank you! 😊❤🌺

    @vinkkt Před 2 lety +1

    Living in South Africa I have to close the curtains every time I use uv resin. I learnt the hard way because you don't even need direct sunshine for it to begin to thicken up and cure.

I use a UV nail lamp to cure my pieces looked at the box but I can't afford that rights now though it would be perfect.

    I always learn something I didn't know from your videos, thanks for another great tutorial. I really appreciate your explanation of how this cures and what works well with UV resin. I want to try some embellishments for card making, does it work well in a thin layer? I understand that the paper needs to be sealed and dry, my question is can you just use a thin layer on top for a little durability for the embellishment?

    Hi Steve. Thankx for this video. It's perfect timing for me, for I too am getting ready to start using UV Resin. I have a great many bottles, so I'm anxious to get started. I do prefer the molds that aren't very deep, for I want to focus on making earrings and necklaces. Plus, I haven't used epoxy resin yet, even though I do have some bottles of JDiction, but I'm just a little concerned about using any epoxy resin because I have asthma. I do have a respirator, but my concerns for my asthma has turned my desire to using UV Resin instead, so your video has been very helpful to me. I still may use epoxy resin, but only outside just to be safe. Thankx again.

      @Nirrrina Před rokem +1

      You might check out art resins that are non toxic & non smelling. I started looking into resin 2+ years & at that time the only kind available was ArtResin & it was a lot more expensive. But a couple of months ago I looked again & there were all kinds of them on Amazon. So I bought some & it doesn't really smell at all.
      Thankfully since fibromyalgia, allergies & sinus issues mean I'm extremely sensitive to scents.
