Tape

Use blue tape to tape off the back of the board. This way when the resin drips over the sides, it will easily peel off when it dries. Make sure to press down the tape around the edges really well.

Paint in Cups

Add a drip of paint into each cup. The more paint you put in each cup with make the consistency thicker and darker.

Mix Resin

Add equal amounts of each bottle together in a cup or measuring cup. I used 6 ounces of each to do 3 boards. Mix the resin for at least 4 minutes, making sure to scrape the sides of the cup to get all the resin mixed.

Mix Paint

Add a little bit of resin at a time to each cup with acrylic paint inside. Make sure you have enough resin to fill each cup, then you can add more resin as there is more left. Mix the paint and resin together until there are no streaks in the mixture and it is runny.

Apply

I like to start by adding resin layers in stripes starting at the top. This is the fun part! I like to keep a natural edge so I didn’t tape off an exact line on the front of the board. If you want a clean look, you can add a line of blue tape like we did on the back.

Marble

You can use a straw to blow designs or a popsicle stick to swirl the paint around to create a marble effect.

Heat Tool

Graze the heat tool over the resin areas to get all the bubbles out. I let the resin sit for 30 minutes then come back and use the heat tool again.

Let Dry

After 24 hours, take the tape away from the bottom of the board. The resin may take up to 72 hours to fully dry.
