Polyurethane resin come in many different types, there should be a material that is right to go with hopefully? Or maybe you could consider adding some chopped fibre glass into it also?
The pigments I use are always labelled as being suitable for epoxy or polyurethane.

Hi All,
I'm hoping to make some climbing holds for home use and was hoping for some advice.
The plan is to make a mould and a few practice holds using the Starter Kit:
https://www.easycomposites.co.uk/silicone-mould-resin-casting-starter-kit
Question is, am I buying the right thing? I believe polyurethane resin is used in the commercial manufacture of holds, but will I need any sort of filler and what should I use to colour the holds.
I'm happy to learn as I go but any advice that will steer me in the right direction would be great.
Cheers,
Chimp
