![]() To learn more about exothermic reactions click here. Please visit the online FAQ before starting your project. Step pour multiple layers for thicker castings.ĬAUTION EXOTHERMIC REACTION: Mixed epoxy generates heat. Every project is unique, but as a general guideline do not exceed 0.5” casting thickness for a full mixed 1.3 gallon kit, or 1” for a half mixed kit. Larger slabs should be poured thinner than smaller castings to minimize exotherm. Max casting thickness can vary depending on a number of factors including shop temp, material temp, mixing quantity, mold material, project dimensions, etc. Working in a shop or with material above 75☏, Deep Pour may set too quickly and exotherm (become too hot) which could cause it to yellow, distort, shrink or crack. Epoxy is a temperature sensitive material. If you have any questions or concerns about the process please give us a call at 8 or send us an email at Conditions:įor best results, all materials and working conditions should be maintained at a constant 60☏-75☏. Keeping the work area cool by adding a fan can help reduce the risk of the epoxy overheating. Pouring too much epoxy into a large area may result in shrinking, yellowing or cracking. ![]() Please take into consideration the volume of epoxy you pour into a void. DO NOT use Deep Pour resin in working temperatures above 75☏. This is an advanced deep pour epoxy resin system.
