Product Description

resi-BLAST is an innovative, single part liquid additive that can be dropped into wet and coloured art resin to create cells. The additive is commonly referred to as a dispersant, interference or distressing medium.

Popular Uses:

  • Creates cells and lacing in art resin
  • Resin art panels, cheese-boards, wall art
  • Sea shore foam lacing effects

Main Features:

  • Safe and user friendly
  • Odourless
  • Non toxic and non flammable
  • Safe to use –conforms to ASTM D-4236 certified
  • Non VOC formula with no aggressive chemical, solvent or alcohol ink content
  • resi-BLAST can be used along with colour tints, pastes and pigmnets

resi-BLAST is a single part polymeric liquid that reacts with wet epoxy, polyester and polyurethane resins by repelling itself away, thereby stimulating movement in concentric outward circles. It is not a paint or resin and will not cure on its own. This dispersion reaction creates motion into self contained cellular structures as seen in the photos.

IMPORTANT: Read the application and watch the video

 

Add one or two drops of resi-BLAST to the pigmented resin surface immediately after mixing / pigmenting. Pour the resin mixture onto the art surface and watch the cells form. The motion is instigated instantaneously and can be further enhanced by applying heat in that area. Do not wait for the resin to gel or partially cure as resi-BLAST will not work at all.

Alternatively droplets can be added to the pigmented resin surface immediately after mixing/pigmentation.

For small cell effects, simply apply resi-BLAST by spraying in a fine mist. Any excess additive will form shallow uniform depressions (craters) in the resin surface and creates a tactile effect. Once cured, a thin coat of resin will create a smooth surface if you so wish.

Any residue not absorbed and migrated to the surface can be wiped off with a clean dry cloth or alcohol wipe, once the resin has cured. Clean well before applying a second coat of resin.

resi-BLAST will not react or retard the curing cycle of the resin. The additive may leave shallow uniform depressions (craters) in the resin surface which can add to its optical effect. In addition any residue of the additive will migrate to the surface of the resin and should be wiped off with a dry cloth after the resin has fully cured (see individual product datasheets for this info). This residue can also act as a polish layer to further enhance a glossy resin surface.

Please Note: resi-BLAST was developed and tested with Eli-Chem’s own proprietary artwork resins, MasterCast 1-2-1, totalCAST, UltraCast XT, General Purpose Clear Epoxy resin and CER (Clear Epoxy Rigid resin). Similarly the pigments used are exclusively from our own resi-TINT range. As a result we are not able to offer technical advice or performance warranties when used with other brands of resins and pigments.
