USING WITH UV GEL
The UV resin requires a high dose of concentrated UV light to cure, it will not cure in normal sunlight. The curing time depends on the thickness of the resin. Clear gel will cure faster than gel with colour applied. If you are adding lots of colour, cure the resin in thin layers. Leave the piece to set out of the box after curing for a couple of minutes. If the light gets hot it can inhibit curing, so turn the light off and let it cool off in between curings. It is a good idea to leave the resin to sit out of the UV box for a couple of minutes after curing, as sometimes the resin can come out slightly soft and seems to need to sit and cool down to harden fully.
