      Hi,
      I have been using resin for 6 months now and made many pendants and had great success. I only mix a small portion at a time. I find that when I make earrings – dome them over wood, after 5- 8 minutes my resin gets very thick an extremely hard to work with and end up having to throw it out.
      Is there a way to keep the resin runny in the cup while working.
      Thanks in Advance.

      What’s the pot time of the resin you are working with? It might be that’s all the time it wants to stay liquid for.
