A torch is the number one tool to get rid of bubbles in your ArtResin surface so that you end up with a flawless finish.  

When you catalyze your ArtResin mixture, you induce a lot of bubbles as you stir and those bubbles need to be eliminated, otherwise they'll cure right into your piece. 

To get rid of bubbles, people have tried to blow on them through a straw or pop them with a toothpick, but those methods are really ineffective. Others have tried using using a hairdryer or a heatgun and, again, those tools as well are not very effective because they just don't get hot enough and they blow the resin around. 

The control you get with a torch, however, will zap those bubbles with ease and efficiency for the pro results you're looking for.  The flame from the torch heats the resin surface up instantly, thinning it out and allowing bubbles to escape very easily. An added benefit of the flame is that it will burn off tiny dust particles that may have landed in the resin. Of course, common sense and caution should be used when operating any torch or heat gun.

To help you, we have a handheld Artist's Torch and an Artist's Propane Torch Head for larger jobs.

Once you use a torch, you'll wonder what you ever did without it!
