NEW! Alumilite Amazing Floral Preservation Resin!
This is not just another epoxy resin but floral preservation re-imagined from the ground up! Perfect for wedding bouquets, memorial flowers, and keepsake projects where every petal matters.
Alumilite Amazing Floral Preservation Resin is a purpose-built polyaspartic formula, not an epoxy, designed specifically for preserving dried flowers. Unlike epoxies, it cures with no heat required, making it easier to protect delicate petals while building layered floral pieces.
The resin is fast-curing with low-heat chemistry allowing each layer to be ready in just 3–6 hours. With built-in UV stability, flowers stay bright, detailed, and true to their original colour over time.
✅ 1:1 easy mix ratio– simple to measure and mix for consistent, predictable results. 1:1 by volume (A:B). Stir slowly and gently in one direction to keep bubbles out. Let the mix rest for 3–4 minutes before pouring so tiny bubbles can rise.
✅ Formulated for floral encapsulation– low-exotherm chemistry protects delicate petals from scorching or discolouration.
✅ Crystal-clear, UV-stable finish– the cured piece stays bright and crystal-clear, keeping flowers vivid for years.
✅ Fast working + curing cycle– 15–20 minute work time, layers ready in 3–6 hours, de-mould in ~24 hours.
!No torch or heat required–new technology eliminates air pockets inside the block, releasing bubbles before they form. This product is not an epoxy and behaves very differently from one.
How to Use
- Use fully dried, sealed flowers only – moisture can cause cloudiness or rapid curing.
- Mix 1:1 by volume (A:B) – stir slowly and gently to avoid introducing air.
- Pour in thin layers (¼"–½") – let each layer rest 3–6 hours before the next.
- Do not use heat tools – allow bubbles to rise naturally and pop with a toothpick.
- Cure at room temperature (18–24°C) – de-mould after 24 hours; full cure in 7 days.
- Optional: Use a pressure pot for complex or large floral arrangements to minimise trapped air.
Top Tips!
⚠️ Important - No Heat!
- This is not epoxy resin, so do not use torches, heat guns, or warm-water baths. As a polyaspartic resin, it naturally cures clear and smooth without heat.
- Heat can cause bubbling, speed up curing, or damage your florals.
- If bubbles appear, do not use heat to remove them, use a toothpick or small stick to gently tease bubbles away from petals or the surface.
Bubble Management:
- Dunk your florals before pouring: Submerge each flower in a small cup of mixed resin first, then lift and place it into the mould. This “dunk coat” helps push out trapped air and can reduce bubbles. However, it isn’t a guaranteed solution for every flower, some blooms naturally trap air due to their shape or petal structure.
- Pre-seal fragile blooms (optional): A light mist of floral sealant or clear spray helps reduce micro bubbles in thin or airy petals.
Layering:
- Pour your next layer 3–6 hours after the previous layer during the ideal gel stage. Waiting too long (letting a layer fully cure) makes layer lines more visible, especially in deep floral blocks.
- Pouring layers closer together minimises visible seams and helps prevent micro bubbles from being trapped between pours.
FAQ's
1. Can I use fresh flowers in this resin?
Nope! Only use fully dried, sealed florals. Any moisture can cause cloudiness, bubbling, or rapid curing — dry and seal them first for crystal-clear results.
2. How should I pour for the best results?
Pour in thin layers about ¼"–½" thick. Give each layer 3–6 hours before adding the next to prevent trapped bubbles or heat buildup.
3. Can I use a torch or heat gun to remove bubbles?
No heat tools! This resin isn’t an epoxy — heat can damage your florals or cause the resin to cure too fast. Let bubbles rise on their own and pop gently with a toothpick.
4. What temperature should I work in?
Room temperature is key! Keep your workspace between 18–23°C for best clarity and working time.
5. How long does it take to cure?
Demold after 24 hours, but give it 7 full days to reach complete hardness and clarity. Patience = perfection.
6. Should I use a pressure pot?
Optional, but helpful! A pressure pot can reduce trapped air when working with larger or more detailed floral pieces, but it’s not required for great results.
