Epoxy Resins

Epoxy resin is used across a wide range of woodworking and craft applications, including filling voids and cracks in timber slabs, creating river tables, making resin art pieces with pigments, applying a high-gloss surface coating, and casting objects in clear resin. Different epoxy formulas are designed for different pour depths and applications, so it is important to choose the right product for your specific project.

Coating resin (sometimes called flood coat or table top resin) is designed for thin pours, typically 3 to 6mm per layer, and is used to create a hard, clear surface finish over timber, artwork, or bar tops. Casting resin is formulated for deeper pours, making it the right choice for river tables, encapsulating objects, or filling large voids. Using a coating resin for a deep pour can cause the resin to overheat and crack, so matching the product to your pour depth is essential.

Hammer Roo stocks the full Health of Mind Art epoxy range, including Pure Glass (flood coat and artwork), Pure Tough (scratch and heat resistant coating), Cast Away Ultra Clear (shallow casting and void filling), River Cast (deep pour river tables), and an All Purpose formula. Sizes range from 1 litre up to 30 litres, and the range also includes pigment pastes, metallic powders, and application accessories.

For a river table, you need a deep pour casting resin that can be poured in thick layers without overheating. Health of Mind Art River Cast is designed specifically for river tables, curing slowly to manage the heat generated in deep pours and producing a crystal-clear result. Pours are typically done in layers up to 50mm and allowed to cure fully between pours for the best outcome.
