Therefore, a thick resin should be used or you won&#8217;t get the effect. If you work with flowers instead, a thick resin is better suited because it permeates the flower better and the bubbles rise easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"933\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-933x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2759\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/en\/thick-or-thin\/img_0103\/\" class=\"wp-image-2759\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-933x1024.jpg 933w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-273x300.jpg 273w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-768x843.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-1400x1536.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-1867x2048.jpg 1867w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-370x406.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-270x296.jpg 270w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-570x625.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-456x500.jpg 456w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0103-740x812.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 933px) 100vw, 933px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Use thick<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"746\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-746x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1012\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/en\/steampunk-letter-e\/i-blumen-2\/\" class=\"wp-image-1012\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-746x1024.jpeg 746w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-219x300.jpeg 219w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-768x1054.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-1680x2305.jpeg 1680w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-1240x1701.jpeg 1240w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-860x1180.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-680x933.jpeg 680w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-500x686.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-400x549.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-250x343.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-200x274.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-100x137.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-76x104.jpeg 76w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen-50x69.jpeg 50w, https:\/\/blog.pixiecrafting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/I-blumen.jpeg 1822w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 746px) 100vw, 746px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Use thin<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the video you can see the thin dripping from the silicone tool, the thick instead holds on to it!&nbsp;You can influence the viscosity further by the temperature, a warm water bath makes the resin thinner, and the refrigerator thicker!&nbsp;Have fun experimenting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpixiecrafting%2Fvideos%2F611769115873402%2F&amp;show_text=0&amp;width=560\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thin UV resin is particularly suitable for very thin layers and spreads by itself in narrow and filigree shapes and bezels.
