We are an Italian company which sells and installs natural stones, marbles.
We would like to receive a feedback from you, because our Indian marble supplier used your expoxy resin on the surface of Rainforest Green Marble with brushed finish.
We have installed this marble inside a private pool and we would like to be sure that your product doesn't affect marble under sun-light or in contact with pool water!!

Have you ever had similar experience?

Waiting for your kind reply

Are you sure it was the Vac Cast epoxy?  This product: Vac Cast Epoxy Casting Resin

Or did you mean our GlassCast such as GlassCast 3?

If it was the latter, GlassCast 3 is not rated for permanent underwater use so we have no data to know exactly how long it may last or how it may degrade. Fully Cured epoxy is generally waterproof so I would expect it would be fine initially but long term it may not have the durability you need.

Thanks Warren.
Yes, it was Vac Cast Epoxy Casting Resin!

I have no idea why they would use that resin for that application. Unfortunately there is no data and no real world experience with using VacCast in that way so I am not sure how it would last.

Are you sure you mean VacCast?  the resin is grey in colour and it would seem odd to cover a green marble slab in a grey resin.... Or am I misunderstanding you?

I feel like there has to be some confusion or something is getting lost in translation here... VacCast is an aluminium filled epoxy. It is dark grey and completely opaque. It is so unsuitable for this application that I just can't fathom that anyone would have thought it would be suitable... and if they are telling you that it is clear, then either they are blatantly lying, or they are talking about a different product.
