      Hi,

      I want to use native tree saps as resin colour but don’t know what I can mix these saps with and then use them as colour.
      Many saps can be boiled down or even watered down to make the colour, also turpentine is a possibility.

      Which of these options would be best for mixing into the resin?

      If I want a hard resin for a sculpture, which resin should I choose?

      I haven’t tried tree sap as coloring, so I don’t know how well it would work.

      If you want a hard curing resin for sculpture, polyurethanes are what I would use.
