I have been making a few wooden plates on the CNC machine & using glasscast to fill any cracks, knot holes & splits in the wood as it is food safe. Works really well but now I have been asked by a Restaurant if I could make them some live edge steak platters from wood that they can provide that has a significance to either them or the Restaurant ( not sure which but not important lol).

Problem is that although Glasscast is food safe I have been told by someone that it is not dishwasher safe & since these will be washed in an industrial dishwasher it's quite possibly not going to be an option.

So my question for the experts, Is what I have been told about it not being dishwasher safe true & if it is does anyone know of a clear food safe resin that is dishwasher safe. 

ArtResin® Epoxy Resin is the only resin we have with an FDA approval for incidental food contact.  It is a bit too soft for chopping boards etc but will firm up a bit with a post cure at around 60C.  However it is limited to around 10-12mm thick as a casting resin.
