      I am having dimples occur in the surface of the resin I have poured over alcohol ink tiles. I know why similar areas occur on acrylic pours where there is silicone. These are different than that. There is resin all over the surface but dimples in some areas. What causes this and how to prevent them? I know I can report over the project but I am trying to avoid it happening in the first place

      What kind/brand of resin are you using?

        Master Craft 1-2-3. I believe I figured it out. These tiles were the last I poured and I suspect the resin was beginning to cure and when I torched to remove the air bubbles the resin could not fully self level because it was already starting to cure. But if you have another idea please share.

          That can certainly be the problem. The MasterCast only has a pot time of 10 to 15 minutes. You might want to try mixing smaller batches to make sure you get it used before it starts to cure.
