Liquid Cast is a casting resin perfect for preserving cherished memories, such as wedding bouquets or other sentimental blooms. This resin is ideal for encapsulating dry flowers within a clear, high-gloss medium. Liquid Cast can be poured up to 2" thick in small molds, but it is best layered at 1/4" - 1/2" increments for optimal floral preservation. It is extremely popular for floral preservation due to its easy to use 1:1 mixing ratio.

By using Liquid Cast, you can easily create beautiful keepsakes for those special moments such as preserving bridal bouquets or saving flowers from a funeral of a loved one. The final product will protect your flowers, preventing them from withering and ensuring they remain vibrant and intact for years to come.

Crystal Cast is a crystal clear casting resin specifically formulated for small, shallow epoxy molds up to 1" deep. This product is commonly used in epoxy jewelry making projects, such as epoxy rings, epoxy bracelets, epoxy resin earrings, and other epoxy jewelry creations.

The clarity of Crystal Cast makes it an ideal epoxy resin for jewelry making, as it allows the beauty of your chosen materials to shine through. With Crystal Cast, you can craft stunning epoxy jewelry and other accessories that showcase your artistic vision and make a statement.

Deep Pouring Epoxy is a deep pour epoxy designed for medium to large molds, with the ability to pour up to 2" thick per layer. This casting resin is often used for projects like epoxy river tables, epoxy charcuterie boards, and other DIY epoxy ventures. Among the three products, Deep Pouring Epoxy boasts the best UV resistance and durability, although it does have a slower curing timeline that is beneficial mostly for thick pours.

Epoxy river tables and live edge epoxy tables are popular home decor items that showcase the beauty of natural wood, often incorporating a 'river' of epoxy resin between the wooden slabs. Deep Pouring Epoxy allows you to create these stunning pieces with ease, providing a durable and visually striking finish.
