20kg Special water clear casting resin (arts etc) and Catalyst (Synolite 0328-A-1).

Kit contents

  • 4 x 5kg Water Clear Casting Resin
  • 4 x 100ml Catalyst

Please note, due to the styrene content in this Resin, it does have a strong odour. It should be used and stored in a well-ventilated area.

This water clear casting resin is used for embedding and preserving biological and medical specimens. It can also be used for making paperweights and decorative objects, such as costume jewellery.

Because of its water-white appearance when cured it can be used to create water effects such as streams or waterfalls by modellers. Catalyst addition is 1.5% giving a pot life of approx. 20 minutes.

After pouring the resin, we recommend leaving the piece in one place for 4-5 days to allow the resin to cure effectively.

This resin is UV stabilised, meaning it can be used for outdoor use and projects which will be kept in the garden e.g. pebble displays or waterfalls.

If doing multiple pours of clear casting resin, great care should be taken in regards to the heat that is generated with each pour. Before each pour, it is best to ensure the first pour has cooled (and is cool to the touch) before adding the next batch of resin.

This depends on the temperature of your working conditions and how much catalyst has been incorporated into the mix. Warmer temperatures will reduce your curing time and colder temperatures will increase the length of cure.  Likewise, adding extra catalyst will speed up the curing process - often necessary for colder temperatures and reducing catalyst will reduce curing - again often necessary during warmer temperatures. We would recommend mixing no more than 1.5 - 2kg at a time. Once the resin and catalyst are mixed, the curing process will begin and you are working against the clock to get the resin applied - usually no more than 20 minutes. Only mix as much as you need.  Epoxy Resin is mixed on a ratio basis and should not be altered. Room temperature is the ideal scenario for curing. Each resin type will differ so we would always recommend referring to the MSDS and TDS available on each product listing before use.  Although some resins may be hard to the touch after 24 hours, some may not be fully cured for up to 3 days.
