RESIN There are many brands of resin out there, but my favorite by far is Art Resin. It’s a
great product and I’ve only had fabulous results. It’s certified non-toxic and is not nearly as

MOLDS
Next up, you’ll need glossy silicone molds. Molds that are matte will produce a matte end product.
There are endless options when it comes to choosing these and you’ll find most of them listed
under baking on Amazon and Etsy or even at your local homegoods store! There are also plastic
molds available for creating smaller pieces such as pendants and earrings. It’s a little more difficult
to remove resin from plastic but as long as the piece is fully hardened, you should be able to pop it
right out. 1. 6" Silicone Cake Mold 2. 4" Silicone Crème Brûlée Mold
Using plastic measuring cups and either a silicone or plastic mixing spoon will make the clean-up
CLEAN-UP
You’ll need to protect your work surface from the resin that will undoubtedly drop. I recommend
either a shower curtain or silicone mat. 5. Plastic Shower Curtain or Plastic Adhesive Roll 6.
SAFETY
While I recommend using Art Resin which has no VOCs, I still recommend wearing a respirator.
Though Art Resin may be safe (please note that NOT all brands of resin are), alcohol ink has a lot of
fumes and if you’re not in a well ventilated room, you can get a headache in a hurry. Best to be on
MOLDES
A continuación, necesitarás moldes de silicona brillante. Moldes que
son mate producir un producto final mate. Hay infinitas opciones
cuando se trata para elegir estos y encontrará la mayoría de ellos en la
lista de horneado en ¡Amazon y Etsy o incluso en tu tienda local de
artículos para el hogar! También hay moldes de plástico disponibles
para crear piezas más pequeñas como colgantes y pendientes. Es un
poco más difícil eliminar la resina del plástico, pero como siempre que
la pieza esté completamente endurecida, deberías poder sacarla de
inmediato.

tip!
Before you can start the fun part of applying alcohol ink to the resin, you need to know how
1 WARM BATH To avoid micro bubbles from forming in the resin, I place my containers in a sink of
warm water and let them sit for 15–20 minutes. When you remove them from the sink, make sure
you wipe off all excess water from the containers.
1 BAÑO CALIDO
Para evitar la formación de microburbujas
en la resina, coloco mis contenedores en un
sumidero de agua tibia y dejarlos reposar
15-20 minutos. Cuando los quites
del fregadero, asegúrese de limpiar todo
exceso de agua de los contenedores
2 TEMPERATURE Make sure the room you are working in is at least 70°F (21°C). If the room is too
cold, the resin will form microbubbles while curing.
2 TEMPERATURA Asegúrese de que la habitación en la que está
trabajando es al menos 70 ° F (21 ° C). Si la habitación es demasiado
frío, la resina formará microburbujas mientras se cura
3 POUR Pour equal parts hardener and resin into your mixing cup. If your cup does not have
measurement lines, I recommend using a small scale to ensure you pour equal measurements of
the resin and hardener. If you use a brand besides Art Resin, make sure to check the required
measurements.
3 VERTER
Vierta partes iguales de endurecedor y resina en
tu vaso mezclador Si tu copa no tiene
líneas de medida, recomiendo usar
una pequeña escala para asegurar que viertas igual
medidas de la resina y el endurecedor.
Si usa una marca además de Art Resin, haga
Asegúrese de verificar las medidas requeridas.
4 MIXING
Mix slowly. Very slowly! Mixing too
fast will introduce more air bubbles
to the resin. I typically stir for at least
four minutes—despite what the resin
instructions may say
4 MEZCLA Mezclar lentamente ¡Muy lentamente! Mezclando también
rápido introducirá más burbujas de aire a la resina Normalmente me
revuelvo por lo menos cuatro minutos, a pesar de lo que la resina las
instrucciones pueden decir
5 CLEAR RESIN
As you mix, you will notice foggy
ribbons throughout the resin. You will
know the resin is thoroughly mixed
when the ribbons disappear and the
resin is completely clear. Make sure to
scrape the sides and bottom of your
container thoroughly.
6 CLEANUP After you're finished, turn your resin cup upside down onto a plastic or
silicone mat. Once the resin cures (give it at least 24 hours), you’ll be able to peel the resin
out of the cup. If your silicone molds need cleaning, you can do so with soapy water or
alcohol. Just make sure the mold is thoroughly dry before pouring resin into it again.
tip!
Do not let any water contaminate the
resin. One tiny drop of water will keep
the resin from curing properly.

resina. Una pequeña gota de agua mantendrá

tip! Get all your ducks in a row! If your molds are still cold to the touch,
try using your heat gun (not torch) to warm the mold up before pouring
the resin. This will prevent extra bubbles from forming in the resin.
¡propina!
¡Consigue todos tus patos seguidos!
Si sus moldes todavía están fríos al tacto,
intente usar su pistola de calor (no la antorcha) para
calentar el molde antes de verter el
resina. Esto evitará burbujas adicionales
de formarse en la resina.
2 Pour to desired thickness. If you’re working on pieces with a larger width/diameter (6"+) I do not
recommend pouring more than 1” deep at once. Pouring too much resin at once can cause a
dangerous exothermic reaction where the resin becomes very hot and puts off hazardous fumes.
3 When your resin is clear of bubbles you’re ready to drop in the alcohol ink. You
can wait 30 seconds or 30 minutes to drop your ink into the resin. This is totally up
to you! The amount of time you wait will cause the ink to react differently within the
3 Cuando tu resina no tiene burbujas, eres Listo para dejar caer la tinta

tiempo que espera hará que la tinta reaccionar de manera diferente
dentro de la resina. He detallado esto más adelante en la página 12
4 Begin by dropping one drop of colored alcohol ink followed by one drop of white alcohol ink in
the same spot. This is where you get to let your creativity shine with colors and placement of the
alcohol ink. It’s VERY easy to go overboard with the white ink so if you’re just beginning, I suggest
starting using less ink.
5 Once you’re done dropping in your ink, cover the piece so dust doesn’t land in the wet
resin. I suggest waiting 24 hours to remove the cured resin from the mold, but the time can
vary depending on the temperature of the room. In the summer, the resin cures in 12–16
hours, however, in the winter, it can sometimes take 24–28 hours. I know it‘s like
Christmas morning when it comes to unmolding, but the longer you can wait the better the
results!
FINISHING STEPS
Steps for adding one additional coat of resin.
PASOS FINALES
Pasos para agregar una capa adicional de resina.
WHY ADD A TOP COAT? Once the resin has cured and you’ve removed it from
the mold, you may decide to add a top coat of resin for several reasons:
1. The resin picked up imperfections from the mold, which you can
eliminate by adding a top coat. 2. Too much white ink dropped and you
want to sand it out. After sanding, you’ll need to apply a top coat of
resin to make it glossy again. 3. You just prefer the look of glossy
APPLYING A TOP COAT 1. Sanding the sides of your piece adds some tooth to ensure
that the top coat has something to grip onto. It’s not necessary to sand the top unless you
want to eliminate any unwanted ink that has dropped. Sand off any sharp edges with a nail
file. 2. Wash the dust off and dry the piece thoroughly. 3. Apply masking or painters tape to
the bottom edge of the piece. This ensures that the resin will not drip onto the bottom of
your piece. 4. Take a cup with a smaller diameter than your artwork and turn it upside
down. Place the resin piece on top so that it is not resting directly on the table. 5. Prepare
resin (directions on page 8) and begin pouring on the top coat. Make sure the sides are
completely coated as well. 6. Using a blowtorch, eliminate any bubbles that pop up. You
can use a heat gun here but it isn’t as effective. 7. Cover your artwork so that no dust can
land in your perfect top coat! 8. Wait at least 24 hours to carefully remove the tape. Let the
piece sit covered for two more days until it’s fully cured.

8. Espere al menos 24 horas para quitar cuidadosamente la cinta. Deja
que la pieza se siente
cubierto por dos días más hasta que esté completamente curado.
JUST WAIT Try waiting for 20–30 minutes before you apply the alcohol ink. At this point,
the resin has begun to cure and the ink won’t drop nearly as much. The secret sauce, if
you will ADD SILICONE One drop of silicone added into the resin will cause the alcohol ink
to quickly disperse from the area. My preferred type of silicone is bicycle lubricant.
Remember, a little goes a long way!. The ink was dropped into the resin right after pouring
into the mold. 2. The same amount of ink was dropped into the resin 30 minutes after
MIX IN THE WHITE Rather than dropping 1 drop of color and then 1 drop of white each time, try
mixing the inks together in your own ink bottles (page 7)! I started with a ratio of 1:1. One drop of
white for every one drop of color. This creates a heavier ink that will drop into the resin creating
some awesome effects. Try different ratios as well!
TROUBLESHOOTING
SOLUCIÓN DE PROBLEMAS
1 I GOT RESIN ON MY HANDS! Mix dishsoap and baking soda (about a quarter-size amount of
each) in your dry hands. Scrub together and rinse! Try to avoid solvents such as alcohol or paint
thinner. These solvents will start to break down the resin and your skin ends up absorbing it.
I SPILT RESIN EVERYWHERE! Don’t panic! Scrape as much of the resin off of the surface using a
metal or plastic scraper. Any remaining residue can be cleaned using acetone, alcohol, or paint
thinner.
¡DERRÍ LA RESINA POR TODAS PARTES! ¡No te asustes! Raspe la
mayor parte de la resina de la superficie con un metal o raspador de
plástico. Cualquier residuo restante se puede limpiar con acetona,
alcohol, o diluyente de pintura.
MY RESIN HAS A MILLION MICRO BUBBLES. NOT COOL. Pesky microbubbles can appear due to a
number of reasons • First, make sure you’re not mixing the resin too quickly. Go SLOW. • Next,
make sure you’re mixing your resin in a warm room of at least 70°F (21°C). • If your resin was
stored in a cool area, try placing the containers in a warm sink bath for 20 minutes before mixing.
HAPPENED? This can happen for several different reasons. • The first thing to check is
your measurements. You should pour equal parts of resin and hardener if using Art Resin,
but other brands may call for different ratios. • Make sure you are thoroughly mixing the
resin and hardener. The mixture should be 100% clear with no more remaining “ribbons.” •
Also make sure that there is no possibility of water contaminating your resin. One drop of
can foam, smoke, give off dangerous vapors and generate enough heat to
melt its container, or cause nearby items to catch fire. If this happens,
