Hi Penny, this is a lovely way to glam up a plain tray. It’s really effective. Thank you for sharing. One question please: do you have to sand the tray before adding the resin, or does it stick to the shiny surface without sanding?
Using acrylic paints to color resin can be tricky. I talk more about it in this article: www.resinobsession.com/resin-resin-resin/how-to-color-clear-epoxy-resin/
Very cool. After you squeeze out the resin from each cup, did you manipulate it at all before it cured? Or does is spread so interestingly on it’s own?
This tray was made with the Resin Obsession super clear resin. You can find it in several sizes in our store here: shop.resinobsession.com/collections/resin/resin-obsession
i bought pearl paint, thought of mixing with resin instead of pigment, but i guess best would be pearl pigment ... if i shall not put clear resin i guess surface still be smooth ? also suggestions how to remove scratches without second layer ? lets say im using smallest like 1000 sandpaper, and there are marks on a plasticky surface, how should i remove it to make it clear again ?
Keep sanding the surface, but try going up to a 2000 grit (or higher) sandpaper. If it still isn't shiny enough for you, we have some polishing options in this video: ua-cam.com/video/Wm89lAqDCqo/v-deo.html
How hard or soft a resin cures depends on the resin itself. The Resin Obsession super clear resin used in this video cures quite hard. You can find it in our store here: shop.resinobsession.com/collections/resin/resin-obsession It does not deteriorate over time assuming it is well cared for. How thick you can pour a resin also depends on the resin itself. The manufacturer should be able to give you specific instructions.
Very pretty! Does this end up being pretty heavy? Also, after its cured and hard, does the resin part stick well to the tray or do you have to glue it down to the tray?
Provided the tray surface is clean when you start, the resin will adhere without any problems. It does add some weight to the tray, but not enough that I think it makes it that much heavier.
What is Resi blast? I've never heard of it.
Gorgeous 😍! Where do you get the trays and lids?
Absolutely beautiful and thank you so very much for sharing the process 😊love it
Thank you for such in depth detail (= The tray is beautiful!
You are so welcome!

You need to make sure the surface is clean and free of oils, but otherwise, no sanding is necessary.
Good to know. Thank you.
Absolutely gorgeous
Thanks for sharing! Do you wait before applying the clear coat? And where did you get the tray?
Exceptional!! I like your instructions too.
Love your creation! Thank you. One suggestion (to reduce your apron problems): why don't you get a turntable?
Is the tray steel ?
Stunning ❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!
If I use a plastic tray should I sand it first before I pour any reason? Thank you for your help!
You shouldn't need to do that as long as it's clean.
All is well that ends well! The result is just marvelous! Thanks.
I would like to know if acrylic colors are OK to get this result??

Sweetie does this cure hard or soft? Overtime does it deteriorate in anyway? Do you have any answers as to how thick you can pour? Safely anyway?

Angst1251 What is the tray made from?
Sylvia Coburn No idea, looks like faux aluminum

Utterly Stunning! You make it look so easy, (I'm sure I would mess up with bubbles & sanding part). Bravo! Tyfs...😲🆒️
Marvelous 💝
Love it .where did you get the tray.?
Ikea
I looks terrific do you think it would take hot teas and coffees?
If it's not straight from the microwave, it should be fine.
Is this resin heatproof? TY
It can handle a hot mug, but not one straight from the microwave.
Mam my project got stiky at base and harden at top after 4days, wt to do
