      Hi all I’m at a loss. I am just starting out with resin and have not had many issues yet. I have made lots of pendants with crushed glass, mica etc and all have set okay. I am currently making a pendant that just will not set. I have tried 3 times. After research on here I have made sure the room temperature is okay, mixed the resin for the amount of time and scraped the sides. Ensured I’ve measured quality amounts.
      Issue: the resin continues to set with fine wrinkles all over the surface. What else can I do? Or am I doing wrong?

      Hi Lauren,

      It sounds like your resin is overheating and shrinking.
