Artwork Resin is a UV stabilised clear epoxy Polymer.
 
This resin is an optically clear epoxy resin system formulated to produce clear laminates, coats, linings etc.
It has good UV stability, high gloss, and tough coating with good impact and abrasion resistance. It is commonly used to seal/protect artwork, paintings, sculptures, tabletops and bar counters. Also flower setting and paperweights.
It is easy to use, cures at ambient temperature and is self-levelling.  The resin is non-flammable, odour-free and has no solvent content.
