First time epoxy user. I’m just going to do some simple carves into a set of corn hole boards , fill them with clear epoxy , and then stain the corn hole boards, which won’t stick to the clear epoxy I’ve read?), followed up with a few coats of poly.

I won’t be doing a lot of epoxy jobs , so I don’t need a huge kit.

Michaels craft store here sells alumalite clear cast epoxy resin kit. 16oz for $30.

Some bad reviews though. Any input on a little epoxy kit suggestion ?

Thanks.

I only use Upstart epoxy products. They are a little pricey, but I feel it is worth it for the quality.

We’ll. We will see.

1/16 depth.

Gonna clear epoxy, use a little hand blow torch to get any bubble if I see, and let dry overnight.

Going to sand all with 120grit paper and then stain overtop with hopes it won’t dry on the clear.

Sounds good I guess.

So is everything carved, painted and totally covered in epoxy? Like a tabletop?

That looks amazing. Glad you had really good luck with yours………?!

I think I carved too deep……1/8” cut depth….I used cheap epoxy from craft a craft store….and my boards weren’t very level.

The epoxy overflowed a lot onto the board where I did not want it to go. I could not sand it off at all, turned it to warmed up shredded rubber.

Also what did look good within the carve had a crazy amount of bubbles. I tried using a torch and got a little bit out but not near enough to even get that little section to look good.

I didn’t even take pictures….I then lit them on fire in backyard. LOL

Should have used Stone Cote epoxy. The best on the market.

I’ve had great results from Famowood Glaze Coat Clear Gloss oil-Based epoxy. You can get it at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
