Epoxy Mixing Kit

These one-time use mixing cups are intended for use with my coaster mold kit. 

Directions for pouring a multi-color coaster like shown:

1. Using a 1:1 epoxy resin, fill the ‘PRT1’ cup with part A and part B resin to the designated indication lines. Stir thoroughly as directed by the epoxy instructions. 
2. Mix in the epoxy dye and blend thoroughly. 
3. Pour the dyed epoxy into the outer ring section of the coaster mold. The ‘PRT1’ volume is calculated to fill up the outer ring section, with a slight margin for surplus. Do not overfill, causing the dyed epoxy to spill over the ring insert. 
4. After pouring the dyed epoxy, this section needs to partially cure to avoid color bleeding - for a slow cure epoxy, I recommend 1.5 hours, but refer to your epoxy description for calculating the proper time to tackiness. 
5. After the colored section has partially cured, mix your 1:1 epoxy into the ‘PRT2’ mixer, and fill the mold up to just below the brim. This epoxy does not need to be dyed, but feel free to experiment!
6. Once the epoxy has hardened, unclamp the mold and carefully shear apart (pulling apart in tension will not work due to the coaster's brim).
7. Let the coaster fully cure before attempting any polishing. Recommend blending from 120 grit to ~1000 grit for a refined surface finish. Buff with wax for a true polished shine.
