Hi all,
How scratch resistant is the resin that comes with the skinning kit?
Plus the same question for the clear coat resin for tables?
With general use for a coffee table, will the resin scratch/ mark etc.?
Thanks in advance.

Experience with the coating resin commonly used with skinning suggests that it will scratch fairly easily, but post-curing at an elevated temperature will likely help a little and make things a touch harder
It is possible to repair scratches, though but I wouldn't class the resin as highly scratch-resistant
