Epoxy resin has a variety of uses that can make any DIY craft, floor, table, or countertop one-of-a-kind with a finish spectacular. To use epoxy resin, follow these steps:
1. Clean the surface you’re applying epoxy resin to and make sure you have safety equipment, such as nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and that you’re working in a well-ventilated area
2. Mix your epoxy resin with a hardener following the directions written on the label and technical data sheet.
3. Using a paintbrush, apply the epoxy resin to the surface and remove any air bubbles using a toothpick or a pin
4. Wait several hours or even a day for the epoxy resin to cure
5. When planning out your next project that requires epoxy, it’s important you make accurate measurements to ensure you buy the right amount of epoxy resin. You can use our epoxy resin coverage calculator to ensure you don’t have to wait for more epoxy to come in the mail mid-project after running out.
