This kit was sent to me to review. I have never used UV resin before so I am not sure how this compares to other brands. I have used epoxy and polyester resin in the past and had issues with it being sticky if my studio was too cold or humid (I work in a basement in Maine) so having resin that was cured by the light was wonderful. The Let's Resin UV resin had no smell (I worked with the windows open tho) and was very easy to use. The kit had everything you needed to make several projects as well as tools you can use over and over again. I highly recommend it.
I was not paid to make this video but I am using an affiliate link and the kit was sent to me for free.
I think this is a great way to get into resin, below are pros and cons.
Pros:
no smell
Kit included everything you need but you can add your own things to it with no issue
Affordable
UV light is more reliable than waiting for a warm enough temperature and low enough humidity (a problem I had with other resins)
Cons:
I worked in a basement so it was not an issue but if you were crafting outdoors or near a sunny window you might expose the resin before you are ready.
You need to provide your own gloves and silicone mat or nonstick surface.
