      Hi all!

      I have been trying to cast large blocks and I run into cracking issues even with Silmar 42. I ran across an artist who casts large blocks but I’ve never seen a resin like this before. It’s opaque white on the pour and sets water clear.

      Here is a link to his Instagram showing a pour of this mystery resin.

      Any idea what resin this is?

      Hi Evan,

      I’ve never seen anything like this.

      I wonder if the opaque white comes from the mixing? Volumes that large would need an implement of sorts.

      Thanks for the try Katherine. If you don’t mind me asking, what is an implement?

        The implement I’m thinking of is where I’ve seen people use a mixing paddle on a drill to mix the resin.
