LET'S RESINUV Resin with Light,Upgraded 200g Crystal Clear&Low Odor,UV Light,Silicone Mat,Ultraviolet Epoxy Resin Hard, Starter Kit for Jewelry,Craft Decor

Thus far, this seems like a good little starter kit. I was actually surprised at the amount of resin this kit came with, as well as a curing light and the other items. I thought about dropping a star because the first few items I made were fairly sticky after curing. A bit of searching led me to believe it's common for this brand of UV resin, BUT I re-cured the pieces submerged in water (a tip I found in my searches), and then let them rest for a day, and the stickiness was gone. Overall, I'm pleased with the value. I will say that the cord for the light is VERY short (around 2 ft), but who doesn't have an extra cord (or 20?) hanging around?

The media could not be loaded. This is my first time using UV resin and I love it! I followed the directions to a t and made this experiment pendant. I first did a small layer of resin and added gold leaf. Then I dried it for 2 minutes. Then I did another layer with glitter. Dried for 2 minutes and did one more layer of glitter and gold leaf just playing around. Dried perfect each time and I remembered to flip it over and dry that back too. It turned out beautiful and fully cured. There weren't many bubbles at all! It says to pour very close to the mold and I did that each time. I didn't need to warm the bottle in hot water. It's so easy! The resin does have a bit of an odor so I cracked a window open a tiny bit. This was a perfect starter kit and there is a lot of resin! The lamp works great! You can't charge it and have to plug it in to your own brick. The mat is great and so are the cups and stir sticks. It wasn't messy at all. I never got any on my fingers. I highly recommend this! I see people angry about the lamp being small but it works great so who cares. I actually like it small because I don't have much room on my desk. I'm excited to play around some more and I'll post more pictures later. It's so fun and easy and makes beautiful jewelry. I'll never use epoxy resin for jewelry again! Follow the simple directions and you will make great pieces.

This is my first time working with resin and so far I'm very happy with this kit and find all the parts of the kit very useful I especially love the little silicone tools.I was a bit worried because reading some of the other reviews some people found that their lights didn't work at all and they had issues with the resin being tacky. My light works just fine and I haven't had issues with tackiness as long as I'm making sure to cure for long enough.One review complained about the expiration date, that expired about a year after they bought it. All UV resin has about a year before it expires.There is a smell but it's really not that bad and I'm someone who gets migraines and tends to be sensitive to smells.One thing I do dislike is I wish the light had an on/off button instead of only being able to turn it on being timed, partly because to get the recommended time for curing you have to turn it on at least twice.

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.

This kit was easy to learn how to use and did the job well. I was up and running within minutes of receiving it. My project cured quickly and completely. The UV light is small so you can’t do large projects with it, but, if you’re just looking to make jewelry, it would be more than enough. I wouldn’t recommend it for an advanced jewelry maker. Because it is UV light cured, the fumes are much less than you would have with an epoxy resin. I still would use it in a ventilated area, though.

Awesome kit, everything works great. Best value, and the resin cures hard with no bubbles

great, super easy to use!!

Super clear and easy to use. I will definitely buy again.
