200g UV Resin with Light

UV resin is one of my new favorite hobbies and this kit is to blame. (It's been over 6 months and my ADHD brain has not moved on from it... It's a keeper!) Honestly I only bought this kit because I desperately needed a cheap UV lamp and FAST. I did one of those Rainbow High doll crafts with my daughter that contain resin and the light they provided just wasn't strong enough no matter how long we tried to cure it, and it was the middle of winter, not a lot of sun to help either. But I'm so happy that happened because before my only experience was with slow curing epoxy resin, and that really limited what I could do with this medium. This kit unlocked a world of possibilities for me. With this kit I can make really intricate designs by curing as I go, securing little areas in place with only a few seconds of UV. That could be said of any working UV resin materials of course, but this was the perfect combination of starter items. I use the provided silicone tools constantly, clean up is a breeze now. I don't have to use as many disposable cups and such. Just cure anything extra and throw it out. The little scoop and pointy tools are GAME CHANGERS for real. Love the silicone mat way more than I thought I would too, sometimes I use resin to fix random things that hot glue isn't strong enough for, and it's the perfect thing to catch any mess. I'm serious, this kit saved our cheap plastic banana stand from the landfill lol. It is of course, quite a messy craft in general, and potentially hazardous. Uncured resin is not healthy to touch or inhale. Something I've learned is that if you get resin on your skin the correct thing to get it off is actually oil. Like, cooking oil, vegetable oil. Then use dish soap to wash that off. But really, do your best not to actually come in contact with it. I've heard of people developing allergies with severe reactions over time. A very slight issue I've had, and ymmv, is that often I still need to let stuff cure in the sun after using the UV lamp to get rid of any leftover tackiness. But this is just part of the routine for me now, and it takes far less time than waiting for epoxy resin to dry, I'm not going to complain too much. Not even worth docking a star. I usually do it outside but even a windowsill works a lot of the time, where I leave stuff overnight because I often work at night. Sometimes it's fully cured when I wake up in the morning. Do your research before starting this craft. Watch some YouTube videos and really understand what you're getting into. Once you know it's super easy, but there's little nuances that are better explained by demonstration. For example, you MUST use clear silicone molds designed for use wit UV resin. You have to cure both sides before demolding it or it gets all weird. Little stuff like that. Don't be caught off guard and get disappointed because of something small you didn't know. Also remember not every single attempt will come out perfectly, but that can be said of any art form. I love this product. It changed my life and I don't say that lightly lol. Up in my top 5 favorite hobbies now. It has really upped my jewelry making game because now I can really say I made it myself, I didn't just attach a premade charm to a hook. Maybe any UV kit would do the trick, but this is the one I bought and it has been FANTASTIC. Second best thing I ever bought for crafting besides my sewing machine. Yay!

This little kid is fantastic. It comes with everything you need to start including two bottles of the UV epoxy resin and it even comes with the little UV lamp although I have a much bigger one for manicures, I didn’t have to go and dig it out and I wasn’t making any big projects today!! Pictured is everything I made just today since it arrived. I’m in love with the UV Resin already (after using two part epoxy resin for the last several years!) It’s fun. It’s very quick cures fast tries hard stays clear. I just love it and I had a blast creating!!

I’ve never worked with UV resin before and this kit made everything super easy. The instructions are clearly written in English which is a big plus. The quantities are enough for you to give it a try to see if you actually like doing it. It seems to be a good quality resin, but I am a complete novice. I was just trying it out for fun. The kit comes with a little uv lamp and some simple tools which is great. For me, the fumes were an issue. Although not super strong, it sort of snuck up and bothered me after working with it for an hour or so. I have poor eyesight, so I had to get my face kind of close to the jewelry bezels while I was pouring it which is probably not a good idea. I ended up with a sore throat, so my advice is wear a respirator or a mask at the very least. Also, if you’re vision impaired like I am, this may not be the best craft without using some sort of magnifying lamp.

This was a great kit to try out making some resin items, but the light is SMALLER than you may expect. I ended up curing things outside in full sunlight much faster. It isn't safe to look into the light or to smell the resin while it's setting up, but it was nice to use the light to finish a small project and night. I really liked the protective mat and the bottles themselves were easy to use. I made about 20 objects of about 1" square from the amount given. If you buy, don't forget to get some protective gloves.

This kit is perfect for beginners wanting to use UV Resin. Let's Resin is a great quality & has a large variety of everything you need for that first project including the UV light. All materials are usable & with the owner's manual included, it explains everything you need to know.

Update: after using this many times (and I still love it) - I will say the lamp is very weak. I always have to cure multiple times regardless of how thin the resin is. The lamp is also on a timer which is annoying. The legs are rarely the height you need them, so you're left trying to figure out how to raise or lower the lamp and then you have to hope it doesn't slide around because it's so light. I mean it works fine technically, it's just a waste of time. Dropped one star because of it. Original review: I've never used UV resin before and wanted to try it. The resin is easy with virtually no learning curve, so long as you don't apply it to something which inhibits its curing. It's important to realize that it is only supposed to be applied in extremely thin layers, which can be "stacked" upon once the prior layer has cured. In other words, you don't want to fill a large mold like a 1" sphere or something, because it isn't going to cure. You can, however, put a thin layer of approximately 1/8", cure it, then add another. I haven't dared to try anything more dense than an 1/8" layer due to the things I've read in general about UV resin, so your mileage may vary. Ultimately I think this stuff is good for minor repairs, glossing up surfaces on other resins, "tacking" objects in place on other resins (for example, if you're doing a multi-layered pour), or making small objects like jewelry and keychains, etc. The included lamp doesn't stay on very long (2 minutes 30 seconds at longest, I believe) so you'll probably need to activate it multiple times. Tip: don't partially cure something then cover it in more resin and expect it to cure quickly. When I did this, I ended up needing to run the light for about 10 minutes. If the resin is the least bit tacky or has any odor whatever it isn't cured. Also, I recommend placing the light as close as physically possible without it actually touching the resin, as this will be both quicker and more efficient. Overall, I recommend this product for small crafts and find it quite fun - especially since it lacks the cleanup needed after using regular resin. This one is just a pour-and-go type thing with no mixing or cleanup, which I appreciate for times when I have the itch to create but not the energy to get a regular resin ready and then clean it up.

Absolutely perfect! I have used many different brands of UV Resin and this is the BEST! Crystal clear, looks like glass, no bubbles and unrecognizable shrinkage. I won't buy any other brand. I highly recommend this product.

I have to say, i was impressed and dissatisfied at first. I was stupid enough to think the set come with a big UV led light. However it works brilliantly. I would recommend to a beginner

Muy bien la resina es muy buena, la lámpara funciona bien. Es de baja viscosidad así que para hacer un trabajo completo hay que pedir aparte una más espesa

Hat wunderbar funktioniert. Lässt sich einfach auftragen, super schnell aushärten.

The light is much smaller than I was expecting
