"Fairy Wings" - UV Resin for Volumetric Reliefs, 30ml, 2 Colors - Rosa neon

💥About UV resin "FAIRY WINGS" - UV Resin For Volumetric Reliefs. UV resin “Fairy Wings" is an acrylic gel that dries under the influence of the rays of a UV torch or UV lamp. This resin can be used to make three–dimensional reliefs, as well as decorative elements for products made of other materials, such as polymer clay. The difference between this resin and epoxy resin is in its one–component nature (it does not require mixing two different components, it is already ready for use), in a small filling thickness (applied in thin layers 3 mm thick) and in a high curing rate (only 3-5 minutes under UV rays). The curing time depends on the thickness of the layer or the amount of dye added to the gel. You can use lamps with a power of 3w, 9w and 36w. The main thing is that the wavelength of the lamp should be 365nm -405nm. 💥Instructions for use: 1) Clean the film on which you want to create a pattern with acetone/alcohol so that after the resin hardens, it can be easily peeled off (use a regular file /cover or our Shiny Shield film). 2) For convenience, you can outline the outline of the future drawing with a marker. Apply the gel evenly. 4) Keep the UV lamp turned on at a distance of 1-2 cm from the product for 2-5 minutes, directing the light at the product. If you want to make the contour thickness more than 3 mm, then work in layers, “drying” each layer with UV rays before applying a new one. It is recommended to work with the material in personal protective equipment: gloves, a respirator mask and protective glasses. Store the product with the cap tightly closed in a dark and dry place out of the reach of children. Work with the material by children under 18 years of age is allowed only in the presence of parents or other responsible persons and only when the child uses personal protective equipment for the skin, respiratory organs and eyes.

To prevent angular air pockets, it is crucial to properly seal the joints using epoxy resins or silicone. Following the manufacturer's instructions diligently is essential for accurate application. Additionally, using anti-air coatings can help minimize bubble formation during the process. To achieve optimal results, avoid sudden movements or excessive vibrations during the material curing phase. By adequately preparing and using the right materials, you can effectively prevent angular air pockets in your DIY projects.

How to Prevent Air Bubbles in Epoxy Resin

To avoid air bubble formation when working with epoxy resin, it is vital to take certain precautions:

• Work in a clean and well-ventilated environment.
• Thoroughly mix the resin according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Use a mixing stick to prevent air introduction during blending.
• Apply the resin in thin layers, leveling it carefully to prevent buildup and air entrapment.
• Use a torch to eliminate any surface air bubbles.
• If needed, utilize a vacuum to remove air bubbles before pouring the resin.

By following these steps, you can significantly reduce air bubble formation in the resin.

Techniques to Prevent Bubbles in Silicone Molds

Preventing bubbles in silicone molds requires specific techniques. Here are some helpful tips

• Thoroughly mix the epoxy resin and hardener to prevent air bubble entrapment.
• Use a vacuum to remove small bubbles before pouring the silicone into the mold.
• Pour the silicone slowly and evenly into the mold to minimize air entrapment.
• Use a brush to evenly spread the silicone on the model and eliminate bubbles.
• Consider using a degassing agent to reduce surface tension and prevent bubble formation.

By carefully following these techniques, you can achieve bubble-free, high-quality silicone molds.

Tips for Effective Resin Degassing

To achieve exceptional resin degassing, follow these tips:

Utilize a degassing chamber to efficiently remove air bubbles from the liquid resin.

Adjust the pressure and temperature inside the chamber to facilitate bubble release.

Ensure an adequate degassing time for bubbles to rise to the surface and be eliminated.

Avoid excessive resin stirring to prevent the introduction of new air bubbles.

Use high-quality resin products to reduce bubble formation during processing.
