Resin to use for pouring

[hereonmars]

Howdy,

It's really cold now, and I don't want to spraypaint any clear coat in my townhome basement anymore, the two brain cells I have left already don't get along.

I was going to try a pour, but I don't see any how-to threads on this site. I'm going to mosey over to YouTube, but I was curious if anyone could tell me if something like this would do the trick? Is there any specific type of epoxy resin I want to go for?

Amazon Resin I found

I use parks glaze from Lowe’s and envirotex lite from Ace Hardware.

A few pedal have had questions about finishing pedals in envirotex recently and some people had also asked for some pictures of the process. I've got a large backlog of pcbs ready to go but have been super lazy getting any enclosures finished, so last night I started the first five and thought I'd document them here so if anyone has any questions they can ask them as we go.

The first five

1) Klone on a pedalpcb Kliche board
2) ODR1 - Aion legacy board
3) Red Llama - Vero
4) Sunface silicon - pedalpcb
5) Sunface germanium - pedalpcb

I print my graphics onto self adhesive glossy photo...

Great, thank you!

If you think you haven’t put enough on the surface, you have. It’s easy to use too much. I usually pour some down the middle and help it spread out with a tongue depressor looking over sized popsicle looking stick.
