THE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT RESIN: EPOXY RESIN HI-BUILD!

THE PRODUCT HI-BUILD That's it. HI-BUILD Resin is a high-viscosity, two-component resin that offers the benefits of 3D height. It can. HI-BUILD becomes a hard and glassy varnish when its two individual components are mixed together. It also offers the best possible protection against yellowing. This is ensured by so-called UV stabilizers: Our products contain a UV absorber and HALS (Hindered Amine Light Stabilizer) That's what it's for. HI-BUILD has a high viscosity and is a very thick resin. That is why it is perfect for blob art, dot art, geode art and the so-called doming. With HI-BUILD you can create custom effects that add three-dimensional depth to your work. Particularities. Due to its thick and sticky consistency, HI-BUILD is one of the most manageable resins on the market. No sagging, slipping or flowing, HI-BUILD stays right where you put it. It comes in a creamy color by default and can be colored with various pigments. Use a suitable resin pigment, such as Resi-TINT, Resi-TINT MAX or an equivalent of our products. Measure, mix and apply HI-BUILD 1.) Resin and hardener from HI-BUILD are mixed by volume 1:1. Place the two components in a suitable mixing cup. 2.) Stir the measured amount in the mixing cup. Use a plastic spatula for this. Stir slowly and thoroughly for 3-5 minutes; also on the bottom and edges of the mixing cup. 3.) Your mix is ??now complete and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resin. After that, it becomes even thicker and begins to harden. 4.) You have previously prepared your painting surface, which means: it has been dusted off, degreased and is lying flat on your work surface. Now you can color the resin with a resin pigment of your choice and drip onto your surface using a plastic spatula. You can use this process to create three-dimensional shapes. 5.) HI-BUILD is a high-quality product that produces only small bubbles, if any. If bubbles appear, simply remove them with the heat of a Bunsen burner or a heat gun. To do this, walk about 30 cm above your surface in swinging movements. Don't get closer than 30cm to your artwork or there is a risk of ripples and pits forming in the resin finish. 6.) Protect your work from dust or other foreign objects by working in an environment that is as dust-free as possible. Cover it when it's done. 7.) The best way to clean the hardened surface is with a damp Cloth. You should pay attention to this: Although our resins are formulated with the most advanced and safest epoxy chemistry available, you should handle all epoxy resins responsibly and be proactive about your safety: • Always wear nitrile gloves. • When sanding cured resin, wear a dust mask, and better yet, wear safety goggles. • It is advisable to work in a well-ventilated area and to wear a Respirator. • Avoid skin contact (if resin gets on skin, wash with plenty of soap and water). • DO NOT eat, drink or smoke while working. • If eyes get dirty, wash with plenty of water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. • Adding inks/varnishes/mica powder/glitter to epoxy changes its properties and may reduce its non-toxicity. If you are using alcohol ink, DO NOT use a flame to remove bubbles as alcohol is flammable. You can find more technical information about the Eli-Chem-Resin HI-BUILD in our overview table. HI-BUILD Resin is available in 400g, 2kg, 4kg and 10kg sizes.
