resi-BLAST

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.
