Instructions

  • Prepare the  Promise Table Top Epoxy.  This is a multi-step process so don’t start mixing until you are ready to do the whole process from beginning to end! If it's cold, add the bottles to a warm water bath before mixing for about 15 minutes. Mix EQUAL parts of the Hardener and the Resin.

  • Use a heat gun to pop any bubbles that rise to the surface of your project. You may have to repeat this a few times to get them all!

  • Allow the resin to cure for 24 – 72 hours (climate dependent). Demold the mobile pieces and drill holes to add the hanging hardware.

Notes

Safety first! Before you start working with epoxy resin, make sure that you’re wearing protective eyewear and gloves, cover your workspace or use a silicone mat in case of spills, and be sure to work in a well-ventilated area.
