USAGE AND NOTES

MEASURE

Always use proper PPE, especially rubber gloves on. Pour equal amounts (1:1 ratio by volume) of A and B into a mixing cup. Mix more than you need to ensure to completely cover your work and not come up short

MIX

Stir SLOWLY! You are not making whipping cream! Mixing too fast will introduce air bubbles. Stir for at least 3 minutes while scraping the cup sides and bottom. Unmixed A or B material will not cure. Pour mixture into a fresh clean cup and mix 1 more minute to ensure a well-mixed product.

Once you mix the A and B together, you’ll have about 15-20 minutes of pot life time before the resin thickens and cures in the mixing cup. CAUTION! Only mix as much as needed in small batches. Unused epoxy can and will begin to heat up within 10-20 minutes - depending on volume - when left in mixing containers. Do not allow extra unused epoxy to sit! Pour all unused epoxy onto a scrap piece of wood or piece of cardboard in a thin layer to prevent overheating.

POUR

Whatever the project, be sure it is level, free of dust/ dirt and the room temp is at least 72 degrees. Always have a disposable plastic under your project to protect your work surface. Once the epoxy starts to pour it will self-level and this is when you can spread it, move it or manipulate it. You may see tiny bubbles in the epoxy. These are easily popped with a hairdryer or heat gun.

Once you begin using (pouring or spreading) the mixed epoxy, you’ll have about 30-45 minutes of working time before the resin thickens and begins cures.

CURING

Art & Tumbler Epoxy needs to cure for 24 hours for its initial hard cure before handling. Within 8 hours it will have a hard tack. This is when you can pour a second layer if so desired. In about 12 hours, it will be dry to the touch and can be moved without damage. (Do not remove from molds yet.) AT the 24 hour mark is when it can be handled or removed from a mold and will be cured hard in 72 hours. At 30 days it will be a full-hard cure.

Art & Tumbler Epoxy in its “clear cured form” is considered safe for incidental food contact in accordance with the FDA CFR Title 21 Sec. 175.300 Resinous and Polymeric Coatings. Food or beverages should be kept away while it is in a liquid pre-cured state. It is NOT to be eaten, drank or consumed in any manner in either liquid or cured form. Do not cut on, or prepare raw food on epoxy surfaces.

Once epoxy is fully cured for 30 days, it is an inert plastic and safe if all mixing instructions and directions have been followed as stated on the label and online.

NOTE: By the incorporation of colorants or objects, this may alter the epoxy’s food safety, non-toxicity, and non-flammability which may compromise any safety designation. When in doubt, add a thin layer of “clear” epoxy as a final coating to encapsulate the underlying epoxy in question.

Epoxy can and will melt when exposed to a flame and can catch fire. Always keep away from heat and open flames. When exposed to higher temperatures, a maximum of 120F (50C) should be adhered to at all times.
