This question comes from Christine:

What it’s the difference between the epoxy resin and some just say resin?

Hi Christine,

Good question. Resin generally refers to the two-part systems which when mixed together will harden. (UV resin is a bit of an exception here, but I digress).

When people refer to resin, they are most likely referring to epoxy resin, which is a kind of resin. There are other kinds, however, that you may come across. I detail them here:
