JDiction Fast Curing Epoxy Resin, 20OZ/600ML 4H Demold Epoxy Resin Kit -Crystal Clear, Bubble-Free, Not-Yellowing, Self-Leveling for Art Resina, Jewelry, Craft, Fast Casting & Easy Mix Epoxy Resina

Nice resin, bubbles free, relatively fast curing, slightly thicker than other brands which makes it great doming product, but there’s no way it comes as 1.9l. I had 3 paintings I wanted to coat in resin, measured 600ml for the first two, and there was only 400ml left for the last one. And yes I got all of it out! Work done with precise measuring, and you can imagine my disappointment when I learned that I don’t actually have enough resin to finish the last picture, and for that reason you only get 2 stars. ****** Since I wrote this review, the customer service got in touch and offered to rectify this issue by sending a free 600ml product. The resin arrived quickly, and I decided to give it another go on that last large canvas. I am very pleased with the results and I can definitely recommend this product for large canvas coating! I’ve tried several brands before, and some were better than others, but I was never a 100% satisfied with the final look. It was either down to too many bubbles and small artifacts, or some weird swells and fish eyes forming, or even the load lines that for some reason didn’t level. This is probably my favourite resin by far for coating large pieces of art. Not much efforts needed during the process and you can pretty much get it all done in one go. I am changing the rating to 5*.

If you use resin on a regular basis, no doubt you will have tried a variety of brands. Some yellow quickly, some just crack in no time at all and others you simply can't get the bubble out. For Jewellery making in particular this is perfect, the quality is evident from the minute you measure it out. It mixes quickly, working time is limited but you have to expect that because of the viscosity. De-mold time is great, even in cooler weather, which may result in a slightly longer de-mold time. Remember, there is a difference between de-mold time and fully cured time. I tend to use River Table Resind for such as free form bowls and vases, but I have used this for both and it does the job perfectly, you just need to remember when making free form vases that this is a relatively fast cure resin, so, you do need to work quickly with it I would highly recommend JDiction Resins

I've been using this resin for about a week now (usually using the deep pour or regular resin) and haven't had a single item be able to be demolded in my experience, granted I am using molds with a bit of depth to them like trays, ornaments and coasters however, even after 6+ hours, I find that the resin is still sticky and the product cannot be demolded and is not fully cured until 12ish hours compared to the 8-10 advertised The resin seems very thick when mixing, my stirrer wouldn't even spin, I tried putting it up a setting and it turned itself off to not overwork itself, I've been heating it up on the radiator first for about 15-20 mins and then still having to mix by hand. Even with that, I find that the resin is starting to cure quickly during the art process like adding colours and glitter making it sticky, gloopy and hard to move/squidge in the molds but then stays in that state for a very long time, not fully curing. The products always do turn out great though as usual with JDiction, no bubbles, nice gloss, just wish it was a bit faster as I ordered this to handle several projects in the same day as well as itching the demolding scratch

Crystal clear resin, easy to mix as it's 1:1 ratio, sets well, takes colour well, I enjoy using this brand, low odour, low bubble ( I use my debubbler anyway) but before I had my machine it was low bubble, value for money, good size, good strength once cured and a functional. Recommend.

This is the second brand of fast cure resin I have tried. This one is my preferred choice of the two. You also get a silicone stir stick as a nice little extra included. This JDiction fast cure resin has virtually no odour to it. It is thicker than regular two part epoxy but so was the other fast cure resin i tried, it's just how the fast cure resins are. This can mean that it can be more prone to bubbles than regular epoxy but the instruction booklet provides tips on how to deal with this including warming the two parts separately for a few minutes before mixing and I can say this does work well. Having said that the bubbles do rise and pop fairly well by themselves, especially on thinner pours, certainly better than the other brand I tried. I've only been doing resin a few months anyway so getting perfectly bubble free is still a work in progress for me. This resin also takes colours and dyes such as mica powder well. As far as demoulding times go, I'm happy with this resin. The four hour demould time may not always be true for thinner pours, especially if there's a lot of pigment added or the room temperature is slightly cooler than ideal, but it's still a lot quicker than standard epoxy so I'm good with that. On a deeper pour in ideal conditions I can sometimes demould in less than four hours so the demould time will be dependant on the variables at the time. Work time is a bit short. If I'm doing multiple small pours and taking time with adding decorations I can sometimes find that I'm rushing towards the end because the resin is beginning to thicken and become harder to work with so it's best to make sure you're organised and have everything you need for your project out in front if you ready to go so you don't waste any time. Once cured though, it really does have a lovely high gloss finish that I really love. Overall I do really like this resin, in fact this JDiction resin will be my first choice for fast cure resin going forward.

This resin saved my project today. My usual casting resin delivery was delayed and I had run out mid project. Needed a fast demould. Did exactly what it claims. Easy demould after 4 hours, could have probably done it sooner, but was busy. Even with colour and sparkles. No bubbles and beautiful finish. All JDiction resins are excellent and this was no exception. I'd love to use it exclusively, but too costly for anything other than occasional projects. Good working time, can't fault it. Handy instructions sheet, if you are unfamiliar with the fast demould resins or this brand. Failures are guaranteed to down to temperature, measuring or mixing, because my experiences with this brand across all of their resins is consistently good. If you need perfect results, every time, you need this.

Alright so I was skeptical on the whole 4H demold time and full set within 12 hours. But hey if I can make more stuff then I currently so with standard resin I had to give it a try. First of all the texture is thicker than standard and I'm told this is normal so I'm not worrying about it. Mixing wasn't too bad, there was bubbles but after heating with gun and using a cocktail stick to pop any of the bigger bubbles it was all good. There's mixed reviews on actually demolding after 4 hours so I did a test using 3 different sized moulds. Wait is it Mold or Mould? The smallest, cat head, took 4 hours to cure and was successfully removed. Next was the paw which wasn't that much bigger then the cat head however after 4 hours it was still tacky so left it and successfully removed it from it's mould after 6 hours. Finally the Turtle is the biggest of the 3 and it took 10 hours before I could remove it. I have now cast a Mermaid Tail using this resin, it's wider and longer then the other moulds and will test how long it takes before I can remove it (and edit the post to confirm). With normal resin it takes about 14 hours to demold (can be done at 12 hours however I found I left finger prints on parts of the tail so leave it 14 hours) as well as a bear mould which is about 2" tall and 1" wide, again I will update once completed. **please note the other background resin crafts were made with standard resin** Overall, the amount you get for the price is very good, the smaller the project the less time it takes to cure. I shall continue testing however and will edit this post as I go. **EDIT** I now don't use any other resin other then this. I went back to my normal resin and hated it. The more I used it the more I found I couldn't go back to my previous resin brand. It just didn't compare, not in the demolding time but in the quality. It's definitely a 5 out of 5 now I've used it more.

I am still wondering why this is called fast cure epoxy resin because it certainly isn't ready to demould in the 4 hours it suggests. I have used it for coasters as a top coat, where it was just about cured after 7 hours, but it did produce a very pleasing high gloss finish and the end result looked very good. I also used this resin as the base layer for a tray and poured approx 4mm and after 3 hours it still wasn't firm enough to add a second layer, which was disappointing. I then tried it in a 'normal' mould and, again, there was no 'fast' cure at all, it was a full 7-8 hours before I could demould. The other problem I had was there were thousands more micro bubbles after stirring than I get using other resins, however, it degassed itself during the curing process and there were no visible bubbles in the cured product, thank goodness. Overall I was very pleased with the outcome just not with the misleading title of 'fast' cure, because it certainly wasn't. I won't be buying it again.
