Hi guys,

ive just opened a new bottle of glasscast 50 resin to find its cloudy and almost a bit crystallized in places. is this normal and if not why is it like this? its been stored inside at around 20 degrees unopened for a couple of weeks.

any help will be appreciated

The resin has got cold at some point and crystalised. Don't worry, it is not damaged and is completely reversible.


Sticking it on a hot radiator, oven at 50C or in a sink of hot water for a few hours (lids sealed) is usually enough heat energy to turn it back to a liquid.
