Key features & specs

How it compares

Compared to traditional epoxy resin kits like those from ArtResin or EnviroTex, the Jolly Roger Alternative is dramatically less toxic and has a much lower odor. While standard epoxy kits require ventilation and PPE, this kit can be used indoors safely. It also cures slightly faster at room temperature than many soy-based alternatives.

What to know before buying

1. Ensure your workspace is between 65-75°F for optimal curing.
2. Mix the resin and hardener at a precise 1:1 ratio by volume.
3. Use silicone molds for easiest release; avoid plastic molds.
4. Allow the piece to cure for the full 24 hours before sanding or drilling.
5. Clean up spills with isopropyl alcohol before the resin hardens.
