SuperCast® Clear Artwork Casting Resin is a two component epoxy resin that produces an optically clear, high gloss finish and is particularly suited to resin art and shallow mould castings (jewellery items, flower-setting & paperweights etc).
Eli-Chem’s SuperCast® self-levels to form a perfectly flat and shiny finish. Once cured, it provides a clear art coating resin that won’t shrink or distort over time. It can be applied by pouring or brush/roller and cures at ambient temperatures. It has excellent UV resistance, clarity and transparency making the resin system suitable for the protection of just about any creative project.

Mixing
By volume: 100 parts resin to 100 parts hardener
By weight: 100 parts resin to 90 parts hardener
The mixing ratio must be accurately followed. It is not possible to change the ratio. This will result in lower mechanical properties and the resin not drying properly. The mixture must be thoroughly stirred to ensure full homogeneity. Epoxy systems tend to heat up much faster in a pot than as a thin film. Mix only the necessary amount usable within the pot life. Mix until it is streak-free, uniform colour & consistency (usually 2-3 mins)
Application
Apply by hand pouring or brush/roller. SuperCast® can be tinted any colour with the addition of polymer pigments available in all solid and translucent colours.
LEVEL: Ensure your piece is perfectly flat and level, otherwise the resin will run to the lowest point leaving too little resin at the corners or run of the edges. Large canvasses should be supported underneath to prevent sagging and resin pooling.
BUBBLES: Any bubbles created by hand mixing can be easily popped by using a sharp object or by passing warm air over the surface of the resin with a blowtorch or hot air dryer on slow speed settings. Do not hold closer than 30cm to your artwork otherwise you risk creating ripples and dimples in the resin finish. If you use alcohol inks DO NOT use a flame to remove bubbles, the alcohol content in the inks is flammable.
Health & Safety
Our resins are 100% synthetic, they DO NOT contain animal parts or any organic content.
No testing is done on animals whatsoever. Our resins are Vegan friendly and cruelty free.
Although our resins are formulated with the most modern and safest epoxy chemicals available, all epoxy resins are chemicals and should be managed and handled with proactive safety hygiene and responsible care.
Adding inks/paints/mica powder/glitter to epoxy resin will change its properties. If you use alcohol inks DO NOT use a flame to remove bubbles, as alcohol is flammable.
