Ive been looking at the GlassCast 50 Clear Epoxy Casting Resin. Is this suitable for this kind of project? It does state it can go 25mm deep so I guess multiple layers at 25mm?

In most plastic, metal and silicone moulds, you will be fine with 50mm pours. Warren Penalver Easy Composites / Carbon Mods - Technical Support Assistant
