RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy LV
- Low viscosity
- UV stabilised
- 2:1 mixing ratio
- Suitable for jewellery etc.
RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy LV is an epoxy resin specially developed for Resin Art. Thanks to its convenient 2:1 mixing ratio, it is easy to work with. The resin contains a UV stabiliser, which means it yellows less quickly than standard epoxy resins. This low-viscosity (LV) epoxy is therefore particularly suitable for making jewellery, orgonites, paintings, coasters, and other Resin Art projects on a wide variety of substrates.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced Resin Art creator, RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy LV is the ideal choice for all your creative projects!

Low-viscosity epoxy casting resin
This low-viscosity epoxy casting resin offers excellent flow characteristics, making it ideal for creating Resin Art jewellery, orgonites, coasters, and paintings. It is also suitable for filling silicone moulds.
Resin Art epoxy vs. RESION UV epoxy
At first glance, RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy and RESION UV Epoxy (CAST25) appear very similar. Both resins are transparent, virtually odourless, and suitable for castings up to 2.5 cm. However, there are some important differences.
Resin Art Epoxy has a simple 2:1 mixing ratio, allowing you to get started quickly and easily without complicated calculations. For crystal-clear castings, we recommend RESION UV Epoxy, as this resin offers very high UV resistance and maximum clarity. Resin Art Epoxy LV offers lower UV resistance and is therefore less suitable for long-term clear castings.
| Resin Art Epoxy LV | UV CAST25 | |
| Mixing ratio | 100:50 (2:1) | 100:60 |
| UV resistance | Medium | Very high |
| Viscosity | Low | Low |
| Transparency | High | Very high |
| Odour | None | None |
| Maximum casting thickness | 2.5 cm | 2.5 cm |
In summary: choose RESION Resin Art LV Epoxy for creative projects that require easy mixing, and RESION UV Epoxy (CAST25) when you want a fully transparent and UV-resistant casting.
Directions for use
Using RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy LV is straightforward:
- Accurately weigh component (A) resin and component (B) hardener according to the mixing ratio stated on the packaging (2 parts by weight of resin on 1 part by weight of hardener).
- Mix both components thoroughly for 3 minutes. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing cup thoroughly while mixing.
- If desired, add pigments to colour the resin.
- Apply the epoxy to the desired surface (pot life is 30-60 minutes at 20℃).
- After application, allow RESION UV Resin Art Epoxy LV to cure for approximately 12-18 hours before it can be handled safely (please note: full curing takes 3-5 days).
