Q:  How Can I Avoid Getting Dimples In My ArtResin Surface?

A: Dimples can occur for 3 reasons:  

1) If the temperature fluctuates in the room while the ArtResin is curing during the first 24 hours.  Make sure that the temperature stays stable in the room ( 72-77F or 23-25C ) while your piece cures.

2) If you get some dust particles in your piece.  Make sure you reduce dust in your resin room as much as possible and use a dustcover to protect your piece while it cures.

3) If you overtorch, it can cause dimples and imperfections in your resin.  You only need a quick pass over the resin surface back and forth to release bubbles - always keep the torch moving and don't hold it too close or for too long in one spot.

If you follow these practices, you can avoid getting dimples in your cured resin!
