Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate the amount of resin correctly?
Measure your mould or surface in centimetres (length, width or diameter) and the height or coating
thickness in millimetres. Choose the appropriate pour type in the calculator, enter the dimensions
and set the mixing ratio A:B exactly as written on your resin. The calculator converts the volume
into grams, using typical resin density. For safety, you can add an extra 5–10 % on top.
What coating thickness do you recommend?
For decorative coatings (tables, trays, boards, panels, etc.) a layer of
about 1.5–2 mm is usually enough. Thinner layers may leave dry spots or visible
texture, while significantly thicker layers use more resin and may need longer to cure. For deep-pour
projects, always follow the maximum pour depth recommended by your resin manufacturer.
What should I do if my mould has an irregular shape?
Select Irregular shape in the calculator. Approximate the area by splitting your piece
into simple shapes (rectangles, circles) and adding their areas together. Enter the total area in cm²
and the average height or thickness. It’s better to add a small extra margin for edges and uneven
surfaces, rather than running out of resin in the last seconds of your pour.
How should I mix Part A and Part B properly?
1. Check whether your resin should be mixed by weight or by volume. This calculator uses weight.
2. Enter the mixing ratio (for example 100:60) and use the values shown for each component.
3. Weigh Part A and Part B separately on accurate scales, then pour Part B into Part A.
4. Stir slowly for 3–5 minutes, scraping the sides and bottom of the cup to avoid unmixed spots.
5. For critical projects, you can pour the mix into a second clean cup and stir again (“double-cup” method) — this greatly reduces the risk of sticky areas.
