Unicone Art SETINSTONE Eco Casting Resin Powder Kit - Sustainable, Non-Toxic, Eco-Friendly, Water Based Formula - Easy to Use for DIY Art - 1 Bag Mineral + Polymer Powder - All in One (1kg/2lbs)

This product is unbelievable - it's easy to use and I created items that I would have otherwise paid good money for. You truly just mix the powder with water (1 part water, 3 parts powder, using a kitchen scale) and then pour into any silicone mold. It set in under an hour and was ready to use. I am going to buy the pigments and the waterproofing substance from Unicone to level up the project for next time. I plan on using this with my elementary & middle school students, too, but I'm also excited to make more items for myself and as gifts.

I am trying out several different brands of this type of casting material from Amazon. I like this because it allows for more work time than some other brands. It allows me to play around while I get the colors right. It mixes easily with no lumps and minimal air bubbles. It seems to require a little bit more time in the mold particularly if the piece you are molding has protusions like areas, legs, ears., hats etc.. I broke an arm trying to remove one piece from its mold. Also, the pieces seem to dry down lighter. An interesting experiment would be to use the same mold for each brand and weigh it when dry. Right now I plan to use this in more block style molds. I can’t speak to its long term durability.

I bought this product because "just clay" is simply too fragile. I tried molding a Lily mould, but it broke into several pieces.....after following the directions. I had hoped for an alternative, (not a replacement)to resin, but this isn't it! Also, calling it a "kit" was a bit of a stretch, since it only contained a plastic bag of powder. I WISH I could send it back!

i found this was impossible to color and extremely brittle and doesn’t hold details from mold. im sticking to eco resin which is easier to color and way stronger. everything i demolded with this product shattered. this stuff requires perfect temperatures to set so if your house is drafty just go with resincrete eco resin not this stuff. i’m still curious where they got those photos in the advertising as I use the entire bag trying to get those beautiful colors and this stuff just doesn’t hold color. edit. found out only the dyes they sell work well with this product. I’ve invested way too much in my current pigments, which includes resin base, alcohol base, and water base and pure powdered micas. I prefer to work with products that work with what I already invested in. they should of supplied their colorants in this kit so we didn’t waste so much of our own products and time.

I'm still experimenting with the material, and so far, it's super easy to use—especially compared to epoxy resin. Cleanup is a breeze, and there are no vapors, so it’s practically begging to be experimented with. I was casting in silicon molds,and the results are smooth and easy to demold. YMMV, but in my experience so far, let it cure for more than 48 hours before polishing. Also, follow the mixing instructions carefully — I had to fine-tune a bit to get the results I wanted

The instructions say to remove it after 2 hours. Under no circumstances should you remove it after 2 hours. It needs to sit for at least 12 hours. Otherwise, the entire mold crumbles in your hands. There are small bubbles all over the texture of the product. I don’t know how to get rid of them. I tried using a vibrating table and shaking it by hand, but the bubbles still remain. However, the material’s texture is very pleasant, with a beautiful beige color and a nice gloss, almost like ceramic. But there are issues I’ve encountered, and I haven’t found a solution yet. I can’t use it for work.

Great product. I need to use a lot of it, so the price seems high to me. Good quality.

Perfect material and excellent quality, easy to use and beautiful finish, I will buy again
