Hello!
I'm a total beginner and would like to know which is the easiest resin to work with please 
I want to make decorative coasters (ie don't need to be heat resistant or food grade standard) and bracelets using flowers & flowers (so I will need a few minutes to put the bits in place)
Many thanks for the advice! Smile

If you are just coating over the top of the coasters, then the GlassCast 3 is the better choice. For thicker castings around 10mm or so or for pouring into a coaster mould, then I would go for the GlassCast 10.  Both are easy to mix and use but with slight differences in clarity and surface levelling.  The 3 is smoother but less clear than the 10.   You can find both the resins here: Epoxy Resin

Hi Warren
thanks for the reply. It would be a mould for both  Possibly deeper than 10mm for the bracelet. It's the 10 still the best?
Kind regards
