- In this video we go over the issue of epoxy hardener turning yellow in the container before the two parts are mixed together. Is this bad?? will the epoxy still harden correctly? do I have to throw away my epoxy and start over?? what do I do??
these are all great questions that I hope are answered in this video.
If you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments!!!
Nice shop!

Hi. I have only just subscribed and love your videos. My wuestion is, can i use two different brands of resin on one piece of work, eg if one brand has cured or tacky, can i use a different brand for my second pour. Thank you.
Yes you can. There shouldn’t be anything wrong with using different brands

In my experience it’s just cosmetic. Amber or yellow epoxy is still strong.
As an artist though I am doing research and it has been confirmed that it will yellowed down the road in four years…
It is concerning bad news
Hey Nathan, I have those coaster molds. They're the worst. The walls are wavy and the coasters get thinner. Was able to replace them with a more rigid mold. I can share em with you on fb if you like.
That would be great!
Thanks for this video Nathan! I had this issue with a project a few weeks ago. I was using some dark pigments so I figured I could get away with it. Now seeing it being done with no coloring has me more comfortable. Love learning from you videos man!
Put a few drops of Indigo color alcohol ink in the epoxy and it will go completely clear. I realize this is 2 years later, but in case this happens again, this is what you can do to keep your epoxy (curing agent) completely clear. Add denatured alcohol to get the bubbles to pop and either a torch or a heat gun to pop bubbles.
exact question I had.. *thank you!* I had a whole gallon that sat for a while and turned yellow. At mixing time finally, it did clear up when the two came together..
so far.. all is good just like you came up with. I think 1 year starts when you open it.
awesome! molds looked cool. new to the trade.. LOL
Can you use epoxy on an already stained wood
Yes you can, just have to be sure that the stain is perfectly dry before applying the epoxy.
Thanks for the video
I was late to the party tonight
