Apex Resin Review
Are you looking for a high quality, easy to work with and long lasting resin? Apex is my absolute favourite. Let’s talk about it a bit more.
Apex Quantum Regular Set Resin Review
Apex have launched two brand new resins that have specifically been formulated for tumbling. They are honestly perfect for tumblers, glasses, pots and vases. Basically, anything you can put on a tumbler turner needs this resin!
This tumbler resin is perfect for tumbling beginners! It gives you a 40 minute working time so you can learn how to add colours and textures without rushing.
It’s super easy to get such a professional finish with minimal effort. And the best thing – it’s non-toxic, BPA free and food safe!
Apex Quantum Fast Set Resin Review
Quantum fast set offers all of the amazing features as the regular set quantium but it has a super fast cure time. This resin will be touch dry in 1 – 2 hours (full cure in 7 Hours). This means you can really quickly add layers which is perfect for intricate designs, adding multiple colours and it means you can add top coats to your project in no time!
Is it still easy to work with? YES! It’s just as easy to work with BUT – you have a short 20 minute working time with this super speedy resin. This means you need to have planned out exactly what you’d like to do and make sure you have all of your materials to hand so you’re ready to get to work as soon as you’ve finished mixing.
Apex High Gloss Resin Review
This all rounder craft resin will give you a great durable finish and it’s super easy to use. It can be poured in single layers up to 3cm or poured in multiple layers (leaving each layer to cure for at least around half its cure time before pouring the next) for a deeper project.
As it is heat Resistant up to 90ºc / 194ºF – it’s perfect for coasters, placemats etc.
This is our go to resin for a huge number of our projects.
Apex Deep Cast Resin Review
With a high heat resistance up to 120°C, pouring thickness of up to 30cm, long working time and fast cure time, this resin is perfect for bigger and deeper projects like tables and flower preservation.
The finish you get with this resin is not only UV resistant but gives you great bubble free projects every time due to it’s very low viscosity and slow curing period.
We love how this resin self releases bubbles which reduces the need for equipment.
Apex Fast Cure Resin Review
This fast cure resin is Apex’s highest viscosity resin (thickest resin). It gives superior coverage and no shrinkage, even over the edges of artwork. This means you can seal and protect your work with one coat.
Again, with a high heat resistance – up to 120ºc, a super fast cure time and the most durable resin on the market for a rock solid, glass like, non scratch surface, this resin is perfect for doming, geode lines and ocean cells, layers (cures in 2 hours), jewellery and clear coating.
Apex UV Resin Review
We love a good UV resin and Apex UV Resin doesn’t fail to disappoint. With its anti-yellowing properties, no shrinkage and glass like finish, it is perfect for resin jewellery, bezel setting, small castings, doming, sealing, bonding and more.
Curing in under 2 – 4 minutes with a 36 watt UV Lamp (thin pours can cure in 30 seconds!), this is a speedy and reliable resin.
