      I am very new to resin and as one of my first projects I used easy cast epoxy resin to fill a series of shallow round wooden discs to make glittery coasters. I thought they came out very well until I noticed that they would retain a concave ring if a soda can was left on them to long and one bulged in the center when a particularly hot mug was placed on it.

      Can I resurface them with a layer of a harder more heat resistant resin?
      If so what resin would you recommend.

      Even when fully cured, I think EasyCast cures soft. The Resin Obsession super clear resin is meant for molds and cures very hard. You can find it in several sizes here: https://shop.resinobsession.com/collections/resin/resin-obsession-super-clear-resin
