Hi
Looking for a bit of advice here.
I have this project on the go at the moment.
I want to pour a clear coat of glasscast 3 to get the surface completely flat.
If I do the pour, say up to 3mm thick will I still get the blue colour coming through and will it definitely make the table completely flat?
Also, what is the best products to remove all the dust and what is the best product to tape round the table to act as a border

Yes the colour will show through no problem as at that thickness the GlassCast 3 is still very clear. Using GlassCast 3 over the table top like that is a great way to get a smooth surface. The GlassCast 3 lays a lot smoother than the 50. 

As that just looks dusty, a damp cloth after a quick hoover should be all that is needed to clean the surface.

The ideal tape for the edges is Flash Release Tape which you can get here:  Flash/Release Tape

Thanks warren.

Really want to use as thin a pour as possible.
What’s the minimum depth I should go for?
Would it still work ok with a 1mm depth of pour?
