How to Get Crystal-Clear Resin Every Time

(Your No-Fail Guide to Stunning, Bubble-Free Pours)

Ever poured resin only to end up with…

• Cloudy finish?

• Microbubbles?

• Yellow tint?

• A weird, hazy film on top?

We’ve been there. But don’t worry — with a few simple pro tips and the right resin, you can get glass-like clarity in every single pour.
Let’s break it down.

First, Why Does Resin Go Cloudy or Hazy?
A few things can sabotage clarity:

• Mixing too quickly (introduces bubbles)

• Cold resin (thickens = traps air)

• Humidity in the room (causes clouding)

• Dirty tools or work surface

• Cheap resin with low-quality formulation

• Yellowing resin that’s past its prime

The good news? All of these can be avoided or fixed.

Step-by-Step: How to Get Crystal-Clear Resin
Follow these steps to get pro-level results every time:

1. Warm Your Resin to ~75°F Before Pouring
Cold resin = thick resin = trapped bubbles.
Pro tip: Place your (sealed!) bottles in a warm water bath for 10–15 minutes before use, or store your resin in a temperature-controlled room around 73–77°F.
Avoid going too hot — over 80°F can cause the resin to cure too fast.

2. Mix Slowly and in Two Cups
This step is essential for clarity:

• Step 1: Mix your resin & hardener in one clean cup for 1 full minute — scraping the sides and bottom.

• Step 2: Pour into a second clean cup and mix again for 1 minute.

This helps eliminate unmixed resin, reduces bubbles, and guarantees a full, even cure.

3. Work Clean
Make sure your:

• Mixing cups

• Stir sticks

• Gloves

• Pouring area

…are all clean and free from dust, lint, or oil. A single fiber can create a swirl or haze in your pour.

4. Control Your Humidity (Under 40%)
High humidity = surface haze and moisture traps.
If you’re working in a garage, craft room, or space with a lot of moisture, consider using:

• A dehumidifier

• A closed resin tent

• Silica packs are stored with your epoxy

Target humidity: 35%–40% or lower for the clearest results.

5. Use High-Quality Resin That’s Built to Shine
Not all epoxy is created equal, and clarity starts with what’s in the bottle.
Artistry Epoxy® is engineered for:

• Crystal-clear pours

• Built-in bubble release

• Long-lasting shine

• Free UV+ Protection (to prevent yellowing)

• A slow, smooth cure (less air entrapment)

You shouldn’t need to add anything — just mix it right, and it’ll do the work.
