Deep Pour Epoxy Resin Kits
Deep pour epoxy resin is a specialized casting resin designed for thick, crystal-clear pours that standard epoxy cannot achieve. Its slow-curing formula controls the heat generated during the curing process, allowing deep pours up to 50 mm (2 inches) in a single layer without cracking, overheating, or excessive shrinkage.
This type of epoxy is commonly used for river tables, deep molds, wood castings, and flower preservation projects (bouquets, keepsakes, memorial pieces) where large volumes of resin are required. The low-viscosity formula helps trapped air escape naturally while the resin self-levels to create a smooth, glass-like finish.
Craft Resin Deep Pour Epoxy features a precise 2:1 mix ratio, extended working time, and advanced UV stabilisers that help prevent yellowing over time. Whether you're creating furniture, artistic resin pieces, or large casting projects, it provides the clarity, durability, and reliability needed for professional results.

Product specification
Craft Resin Deep Pour Epoxy is designed for thick castings where standard tabletop coatings cannot be used. Its slow-curing, low-viscosity formula allows deep pours up to 2″ (5 cm) per layer while helping control heat buildup during curing. This makes it ideal for projects that require large volumes of resin and exceptional clarity.
The formula self-levels naturally and allows trapped air to escape more easily, producing a smooth, crystal-clear finish with minimal bubbles. With a precise 2:1 mix ratio and extended working time of around 90-100 minutes, it provides greater control when working on large molds, river tables, and complex casting projects.
Once fully cured, the resin forms a durable, glass-like surface with excellent clarity and UV resistance to help prevent yellowing over time. It is suitable for professional woodworking, decorative castings, and preservation projects such as embedding objects or preserving flowers.

FAQ
What is deep pour epoxy resin?
Deep pour epoxy resin is a type of casting epoxy formulated for thick pours. Unlike standard tabletop epoxy, it cures slowly and generates less heat, allowing thicker layers without cracking or overheating.
How do you mix deep pour epoxy resin?
Deep pour epoxy resin should be mixed 2:1 by volume. Mix slowly and thoroughly, scraping the sides and bottom of the container to ensure a complete blend.
How deep can you pour epoxy resin in one layer?
Craft Resin Deep Pour Epoxy can be poured up to 2 inches thick in one layer when used as directed. Pouring beyond the recommended depth may cause overheating, bubbles, or curing problems.
How long does deep pour epoxy take to cure?
Deep pour epoxy cures more slowly than table top epoxy because it is made for thicker pours (48-72 hours). Cure time may vary depending on the pour depth, room temperature, and project size
Can deep pour epoxy be colored?
Yes, deep pour epoxy can be colored with epoxy-safe pigments, dyes, and mica powders. For best results, use colorants in moderation so they do not affect the curing process.
How do you remove bubbles from deep pour epoxy?
To help reduce bubbles, mix slowly, pour carefully, and seal porous surfaces like wood before the main pour. A heat gun or torch may also be used lightly if appropriate for your project.
Is Craft Resin Deep Pour Epoxy food safe?
Once fully cured, Craft Resin Deep Pour Epoxy is food safe for incidental contact. It can be used on projects like serving boards and decorative surfaces when applied and cured properly.
Why did my deep pour epoxy crack, yellow, or overheat?
This usually happens when epoxy is poured too thick, mixed incorrectly, or cured in temperatures outside the recommended range. Following the instructions carefully helps prevent these common issues.
Do you need to seal wood before applying epoxy?
Yes, sealing wood is recommended, especially for porous or live-edge wood. A seal coat helps reduce air release and bubbles during the main pour.
Can you apply multiple coats of epoxy?
Yes. For best results, apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick pour. If you recoat while the first layer is still slightly tacky, the next coat can bond well. If the surface is fully cured, lightly scuff-sand to create adhesion, clean the dust completely, then recoat. Keeping each layer up to 5 cm helps maintain clarity and control.
