Why do I use two different types of resin in my projects?
I use a casting resin to cast and a doming resin for doming.
Casting resin is usually low in viscosity and works very well in molds without much issue with the bubbles. Also the low viscosity will allow the resin to reach detailed area of the mold. Doming resin is thick in viscosity and holds its shape very nicely. It creates a full dome and tends to hold the surface tension much better than low viscosity resin. So lower risk of the resin dripping off the sides. It also gives the piece a smooth, flawless finish.

Just to make it clear, its best to avoid molds with sharp angles but nowadays, it’s getting harder to find cute molds without them. So just keep in mind the latex may be the best option to make them work!

Only just found your channel and I love that your intro is getting safety gear!
Thank you!
Resin is so dangerous when not using safety gear!

So many YouTubers won't even use a mask or gloves and will just say oh don't do what I do. That's not good enough!

I find liquid latex more of a precaution for mistakes especially for trickier pieces. Apart from that i thought everything else you mentioned was extremely helpful! 😊

The turn table is genius!!! I usually just turn my mat but this table thing is so much better 😄 definitely going to buy one!

THANK YOU!!! I've been wondering why I get blemishes. It's been so frustrating because I get the dome perfect otherwise. Going to get doming resin now!

I'm about to start experimenting with UV doming resin. I had no idea that it needed to rest before curing. It also never occurred to me to doming resting for coasters, I can't wait to experiment with that!

Thank you, very good advice. I am new to this and tried to use UV resin to dome some small pieces, one was a shaker and the resin started to set every time, even though I was indoors and did not have the UV lamp on.
