Description
UV Top Coat no wipe, no stickiness. Perfect for top coats and repairs. With low heat curing and good aftercare this resin should not yellow at all. This is a great size for beginners and anyone struggling with stickiness. You could try using it with epoxy resin pieces too. We have been using this successfully at Tree of Opals for several months and it’s a game changer. Videos below! Can be posted as a large letter so you may notice the shipping is cheaper with this size than our others.
Suitable for finishing small pieces, thin doming, recoating. We do not recommend anything larger than 20mm across or more than 12mm thick. This resin is more environmentally friendly than epoxy as there is much less wastage, no need to mix up your resin in advance, just paint on, cure and go. Will need longer curing due to steel strength.
Please read our full Terms and Conditions and FAQ page before ordering. Not available to ship by courier internationally, sorry. Quantities of five or more will be drop shipped directly from the manufacturer, meaning they may take a little longer but we pay the import duties for you saving time and hassle and we are able to send larger volumes that we can’t keep in stock.
Using UV Resin
Simply pour resin into your mould. You can also add your clients’ elements or inclusions like breastmilk, lock of hair, umbilical cord and placenta or cremation ashes. Then cure in the usual way. If the piece comes out dull, or you need to correct a mistake, or you smudge the finish then UV Top Coat is the perfect way to get a perfect finish. You can use it on top of UV resin or epoxy resin.

This is a game changer. That extra clear top coat gives my pieces are whole new dimension. It finishes them perfectly and neatly !

Well I never!!! After using moulds for beads I often find that they’re left dull (moulds not keepsaker). This little topcoat is wonderful. It makes the pieces crystal clear and finishes them off beautifully.
I am alway dubious of new products as I have used the same supplies since I set up my business in 2015. I have used this on a personal item of my own to check the longevity, something I do with any new product I buy. This has been on now for a number of months and there has been no yellowing, no chipping and it has not been affected by any chemicals that I have used to clean the house.
This is a must have product if you want to finish your items quickly and to a high standard.

I can’t even begin to express how good this stuff is. I use epoxy resin and occasionally some pieces need an extra layer to protect from dirt. I’ve used normal UV resin as a top coat but found that didn’t cover properly, and have bought other variations of this which were to be Frank, absolutely naff. This stuff goes on flawlessly and when cured has such a beautiful, smooth finish! Perfect for my ring pendants and small necklace pearls! Would absolutely recommend this and now use it on most pieces!

Omg I’m so pleased I found this last year, just purchased another bottle as it really does save so much time.
Once you have finished making your item a quick coat of this top coat makes it super smooth and so shiny.
Really makes a difference.
Every resin artist needs this whether making jewellery or other small items.
Game changer.
Thank you For helping us make life easier Nikki.

Absolutely amazing! I never realised my need for top coat until this arrived! As soon as it came I thought I’d see what all the ‘hype’ is about and applied it to one of my breastmilk rings I had made and WOW! The finish looks so much more professional, shiny and glass like!
I will forever use this top coat going forward!
