Resin Calculator – Mix Ratios, Layers, and Coverage
Enter your dimensions, select mix by volume or weight, set densities, and plan layers with your product’s max pour depth. The calculator outputs total resin, Part A/B amounts (both volume and weight), pigment quantity, a layer plan, and suggested kit size.
Typical Film & Pour Guides
- Seal coat: 0.3–0.5 mm (thin, to close pores)
- Flood coat: 1–2 mm (tabletops, art coats)
- Self-level floor: 2–3 mm
- Deep-pour casting: 25–50 mm per layer (check product datasheet)

FAQs
Volume vs Weight mixing?
If your resin specifies a volume ratio (e.g., 2:1), use “By Volume.” For ratios listed in grams (e.g., 100:45), choose “By Weight.”
Why a max pour depth?
Thick pours can overheat (exotherm). Plan multiple layers within the manufacturer’s safe depth.
How much pigment should I add?
Most systems recommend 1–5% by total resin. Excess pigment can inhibit cure—follow your product’s datasheet.
