ah, I'm sorry, I'm not sure what it is called because I've never tried those resins. You might have to experiment or look for expoxy resin =\. SOrry I can't help more. I did bring some resin home from Hong Kong which I will be selling for $29.99 (free shipping in the US). Let me know if you are interested. If you are, I can take a photo of it and show you. (They have no labels on it, it was packaged that way when I bought it).

I made one~ Not as awesome looking but it was fun. Hand making my rocks (cause I didn't want to go buy some) was tough but worth it~ I'm glad I was able to find my old resin kit!

SmallCreationsByMel In reply to LeanaMee101 [2012-05-28 23:16:19 +0000 UTC]

Did you post a picture of it up? I'd love to see it!

And wow you made all the rocks, lots of patience! =] I'm glad your resin kit worked for you! Some people had problems and wasn't able to make it work. What kind of resin was it?

LeanaMee101 In reply to SmallCreationsByMel [2012-05-29 00:00:20 +0000 UTC]

I use Easy Cast (easily found at Michaels or HobbyLobby). I had trail and error in the past, that's how I knew what to do this time to make it work. You should certainly mention to people who ask about resin is that it's best to put just a little bit more "Resin" than "Hardener" to make sure it works. As stupid as it sounds..hardener doesn't make it harden..x.x

Could you substitute the resin with glaze? I'm thinking about entering something close to this but it's due Thursday

SmallCreationsByMel In reply to xBORN2BWILDx [2012-05-07 22:37:15 +0000 UTC]

I tried substituting resin with super glue, or some glue that's clear. I am not sure which glue is best for this, but the one I used was "Fusion". Here's a post ([link] )I made on my blog about it if you want to read more about it. Hope it helps!
