True comparison though means testing it at the curing time soecified for the specific uv resin. I have 3 different brands and ive got 3 different curing times on each.
I strongly recommend against any Temu UV resin. I've tried 3 different kinds, and they have big downsides: 1) they are not much cheaper than buying in bulk on Amazon. 500 grams of "salt sweet" UV resin on Temu is $31, whereas on Amazon, jdiction resin is 500 grams for $29 2)all the temu UV resin has problems with warping. This video was not a fair comparison for resin, unless you only make small thin pieces like in this video. Every item I've cast with the Temu resin has had problems warping (sometimes bending completely out of shape) and pulling away from the mold and sometimes there are holes where a bubble has appeared during the curing. Temu has excellent two part epoxy, but their UV resin is not good value for money, because once you want more than 100 grams, they do not have a bulk discount like Amazon does. Also, I have a very accurate scale that measures down to milligrams, and the Temu 100 gram bottles contain only 89 grams of resin. That's a 10% shortness of weight, which nullifies any discount you're getting by buying no name resin. I hope this helps.
The owner of the channel is clearly a Temu affiliate who makes money from pimping their products. I had a comment I wrote on here, replying to you, recommending against Temu curing lights, and it was deleted.
She is required to declare affiliation with any company. All I see is an affiliation with Amazon for a typical Amazon storefront. Might want to be careful about accusations like that unless you have proof.
Thank you for testing these. I have had that pink bottle in my Temu cart for a while, and have been tempted to get it from Amazon. Everyone swears by it in all of the reviews...but the proof is in the puddin' lol. As for JDiction, could you explain the 3 different types they carry? There is the one you use, a "new formula", and low viscosity. Could you give a rundown of what would be different with those? That would make a great video for your favorite resin!
My name's Dale. I'm new to the channel. I see the Russian comparison. I have UVS and from let's resin, and I've had good success with it. I'd like this way you've done this comparison. I didn't think about doing it that way but thank you very much. I will try otherwise including the one you recommend have a blessed day thank you
Thank you for your videos very informative. I have a question if you don’t mind answering it. I’m a woodworker and I’m converting my small epoxy projects over to UV resin because of the quick curing time the less fuss and mess with mixing and chemicals, etc. I have purchased the JDiction UV Resin in clear and the pre colored set. I really like working with them so far and I really like the way they look. Obviously Wood is not transparent. I don’t pour anything thicker than .2 inches. Because I mainly using it for smaller projects with details, not river tables or anything like that. So no deep pouring at all. I’m just curious if there are any guidelines as to how long the pre-colored resin should stay under the lamp since the bottom side is not transparent. I am also wondering what type of lamp and what strength of lamp would be best to do something on wood since a piece of wood is going to be too big to fit into one of the smaller plastic shroud type lights. Thanks!
Thank you for the honest reviews! I needed that info as of recent, I just started making resin keychains 😊 I’ll feel confident making my UV resin purchases now 👍🏼 Ps. Was a member of MGL until I found about your leave. I’m so glad I ran into your page, I subscribed immediately.
I was overwhelmed to find your channel as I ordered TEMU UV curable solution DIY glue. Resin hard and had no idea on had to use it... As a matter of fact I back off today as I was not sure of myself oh how to do it and how to start. tks for the video.. I was wondering if I could use the product on canvas ? TKs 🥰
Question. I have a pink mold (not clear) and the resin needs to be 1cm thick. Are these uv resins suitable for that or should i just continue using Total Boat resin. ? Thanks so much.
I would like to know how you used printable vinyl then put in a keychain and then use uv resin or stick the vinyl on the aryclic thrn dome it? I would kive to see that.
What are other factors that effects the UV resin? I personally find JDiction as one of my least favorite due to bubbles and curing time. The pink bottle is my 2nd favorite and Let's Resin my very favorite.
Im using my husband account. "I'm new to epoxy resin and just got my first tools and epoxy from Temu. I tried making a big cylinder-shaped lamp, but I'm having issues with bubbles. I tried heating it up, but the epoxy cured way too fast, like in just 1 hour. I'm thinking it might be better to focus on smaller projects with the epoxy I got. Any tips for a beginner?"
Funny thing…I buy my resin from Temu some of it is J diction some of it is let’s risen, but it’s all and label, but you’ll notice the labels are the same as the brand names just with the brand name missing
The resin is bowing because her light is far too strong and far too close to the mold. Most UV resins shrink do to heat so less heat less rapidly might help. Not to mention, different UV resins come in different viscosities for different applications.
What about the temperature of the UV light? Doesn’t it make a difference in how the curing process goes? I’ve recently seen some resin artists using different strength UV lights. An updated video with temperature control would be nice. Hopefully you do read the comments as I see you are not answering the questions that have been asked.
Great job Rachel!! I love comparisons. This was very informational!! I've only used JDiction since you recommended it so it's nice to see other options. Thank you!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Now that you've tested and done a review on the resin, any chance you would like to do one on any UV lights you might find on Temu?

I have used both Temu UV resin and curing lights. I've never had an issue with anything.
@@Boogie_the_cat what kind of two part resin (I assume epoxy) from temu did you find working well? I guess I will skip their uv resin tho 😂
Do as I say, Not as I do!
I enjoy watching and learning! I am going on 54 and I have lived through a lot! Your way is easier!

Found this accidentally. I’ve missed you so glad I’ve found it

Do you have a video on which is better, UV or 2 part resin?

Me too love these girls. I made sure i found where they went and came running lol. So much better in my opinion
Have you tried Let's Resin?
Also, for bigger pieces, the light should notbe so close to the mould.
Never done resin but ive herd alot of good about the jay one.
Does it matter what % of isopropyl alcohol used 70 or 90% or do we use ethyl alcohol to pop bubbles?
what exactly is that little torch pls? I've been searching for that size all over. Where is it pls?? good job!

No m not suitable..need clear mole. It’s also best used in coatings and build up in layers of 1 mm.
I would like to know how you used printable vinyl then put in a keychain and then use uv resin or stick the vinyl on the aryclic thrn dome it? I would kive to see that.
What are other factors that effects the UV resin? I personally find JDiction as one of my least favorite due to bubbles and curing time. The pink bottle is my 2nd favorite and Let's Resin my very favorite.
When I used the blue bottle from Temu it never cured and I used layers and cured each one. .
It was very sticky in the end
Expose it to direct sunlight. That might help the stickiness.

Just in the process of watching this video and I got a UV resin of temu and one of Amazon both were good but I'd say the amazon one was slot better
Very helpful thank you

Can you recommend a good uv lamp and resin from temu? I just need them for a thin layer on top of my clay products.
The resin is bowing because her light is far too strong and far too close to the mold. Most UV resins shrink do to heat so less heat less rapidly might help. Not to mention, different UV resins come in different viscosities for different applications.
I've used Temu resin and it bows so badly no matter how far your curing light is. It's terrible resin.
What about the temperature of the UV light? Doesn’t it make a difference in how the curing process goes? I’ve recently seen some resin artists using different strength UV lights. An updated video with temperature control would be nice. Hopefully you do read the comments as I see you are not answering the questions that have been asked.
Tip for all, never buy Dowmoo.....
TEMU...pronounced Teh-mooh
