Sanding Resin: Before and after. Give your coasters a glossy and polished look
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лип 2024
- A tutorial on sanding coasters and preparing them for the final clear coat. a clear look at the before and after. Sanding coasters and adding a final clear coat is a personal preference. I find the smoother finish accentuates the 3d depth of the coaster and gives it a more polished look. The process is quick using a Dremel. It doesn't have to be perfect, when you use a good doming resin, the resin will level out once you are ready to put on your final coat.

You do the most beautiful resin coasters on the Internet. Full stop!
Hi, thank you , that is a wonderful compliment!
Oh, I agree! And believe me, I’ve watched them all! 😂 Yours are next level!
The depth and beauty of your coasters is amazing. Far too nice to put a drink on 😍
Let me tell you - there have been a few moments setting a drink on one that it threw me off because they dont look flat LOL - thank you for the compliment
Thank you so much for sharing such in-depth information on how you finish your coasters. The coasters are so beautiful!
The finish on your work is beautiful and very professional. Thank you.
Wow, what a difference sanding makes! Thanks so much for showing us your technique!
I love the way you took your time
Gorgeous coasters!!
Those turned out beautifully.
Ack! I meant to join in on your premiere but I ended up making coasters!! Haha! I too use a dremel but I don't use the sanding wheel. I should try that. I recently did a product test on using liquid latex on the backside instead of tape and I LOVE it!! So much easier! Thanks for sharing - your coasters are so pretty!
I did the same thing with liquid latex on one (newbie here) & it worked like a dream! 👍🙂
Thank you that was Sooooo helpful❤️❤️❤️ they came out beautiful
Your work is amazing. And very beautiful
*WoW! This is amazing tutorial. Thank you so much.*
I’m so glad you did this video.
Wonderful vid. Thank you so much. ❤️
Wòw These are amazing 😍, love them! The design is beautifulas are the, colours
Thanks for sharing!!!!
Excellent instructions ! Thank u
I love your tutorial. I have started using liquid latex on the back of my coasters and trays. Not cheap, $54 a litre here in Australia 🇦🇺.
Whoa that’s worse than resin costs - I’m going to have to break down and try it, I’ve heard it works, but stinks
@@ResinAsYouWish it smells like ammonia.
I have tried school glue instead of the liquid latex it works great and much cheaper I used my dental pick that I use for weeding vinyl to start lifting it off and it came off in one piece . It was not my idea but the person who mentioned it voiced a concern for people with latex allergies .
Thank you so much!
So beautiful ❤
I missed the premier, ugh. Great information though. Thank you!!!
Your shop vac got me thinking. I do my own nails, so I have a vacuum made for nail salon desktops. It's flat, and has replaceable filters, so I'm thinking that would wotk too. I follow a bunch of your advice, and am grateful for all of it.
I feel like i need this salon vacuum !
It makes a huge difference! So beautiful
Thank you.
Ur a.resin genius. Thanks for sharing this tutorial..I'm just starting out. I had to Google what a dremel was...hehe
Great tutorial, thank you! Have you ever used a belt sander, router table, or palm sander to smooth them out? If so, is there a reason you prefer the Dremel?
Very professional finish! Love having a rounded edge on top and leaving it squarecut on the reverse, they look like finished gemstones! How did you get your logo onto the back of them?
عمل رائع ونظيف متقن ومرتب 🌹
Your work is the most spectacular I’ve seen!!! Have you tried liquid latex? I find that very easy to use
thank you! I have been encouraged but just haven't done it yet :-)
Do you have a creation video of these gorgeous coasters?
Is that tape backing holding the coasters in place while you finish them? I was confused if it was for stability or to prevent epoxy from dripping underneath and getting on the surface. Those coasters are beautiful. Thanks so much for this!
So how do you and off the small divots and get the smooth shine back in this tiny spots?
These are beautiful. Do you have thr tutorial for how you made the full coaster?
Hi yes, you can find it here: ua-cam.com/video/MecXEsk9ah0/v-deo.html
I want to know how to make this kind of design.
What is the size of bit. I am wondering if i can use my nail drill for polishing
After sanding what you coat on coaster, coat means resin or resin +hardner
Do you polish the back of the coasters as well?
How do I fix the tiny holes on the side of the coaster? I tried UV resin but the white dot is very obvious. Do I sand it out ? Thanks
can u stone concrete edge?
😘
Forgot to 👍🏻 but fixed
What did you use for the product stamp on the back of your coaster?
hi, it is a sticker
I take it you back your coasters with felt to protect surfaces?
Cork or those little clear bumpers
Can you tell me what resin do you use
Hi, I added the information to the video description - sorry I forgot it originally
Awwww.. pussycats!! 💜
Hey, could u help me out on how to avoid scratches on d coaster, most of my customers complain on scratches.
I have done the top clear coating also, plzz help
Are you using art resin or countertop resin?
@@ResinAsYouWish i use art resin, only for table top i use countertop resin
@@udayprakashk1581 art resin is meant for the wall. Coasters are treated like a countertop and require resin that Is sturdy enough to handle it. Countertop resin is scratch resistant, but not scratch proof art resin doesn’t have the same type of sturdiness (unless the packaging says so) but either way, that is my best guess. My coasters are counter top and stay in great condition and the cats are always sending them flying around during their races - so countertop resin is also cat resistant 🤣
@@ResinAsYouWish Hey, Thanks for the suggestion and immediate response, waiting to learn more from you🥳
@@ResinAsYouWish 🤣 great info. - too funny about your cat!
Can a person clear coat a pyramid? Tks
I’ve never tried, it would be tricky, I wonder if one of those cup turners would do the trick.? Another idea is one side at a time. I’d just recommend polishing it
washing in the sink will release all the micro plastic from sanding into the environment, maybe better use a wet wipe that will contain the sanding dust and can be thrown into recycling/ proper waste management.
While I do find your video very helpful, you speak quietly, which is fine except the music is super loud!
