A Look at Resin Jewelry Glaze Alternatives

Maybe it is the scientist still in me.  But experiments are the only way to determine what will work and what won't. So I really appreciate it when an artisan goes the extra mile to actually try different things. Check out Katherine of Resin Obsession's comparison of different resin jewelry glaze alternatives.


Sometimes the surface of cured resin pieces are less than satisfactory - slight cloudy or frosted instead of glossy clear. I usually just recoat the piece with another layer of freshly mixed resin.  But that is not just extra resin and time but I find I risk getting drips below the piece. Then that is definitely extra work to fix.

So this video methodically goes through some glaze alternatives - including car wax! I really like the resin spray alternative.  What do you think?
