Easy to use, lots of product
Awesome resin. Granted, I'm fairly new to this art, I had no problem working with this product. The fact that it includes the spout makes it especially easy to work with, as you don't have to keep dipping in with a dropper and can just pour (with a decent amount of control) on demand. No need for mixing, just squirt it right out into your mold. Cures evenly in about two minutes in my UV nail lzmp. Lots of product for the cost, too, so will definitely purchase again.

Easy for beginners and no need for big batches (like 2 part resins)
I'm really enjoying this UV resin. 2 parts require mixing larger quantities to ensure proper curing. This resin cures with UV. I'm using a cheap 36w UV fingernail lamp and it does great. This cleans up easily with alcohol. The photos are of quick projects straight out of molds. The only issue with UV is it doesn't cure if the mold isn't translucent or if you mix opaque color or too much glitter. Basically light has to get to every molecule for it to harden. This is my first time and the results are quite nice. (In my opinion) I've only had it a few weeks and some are hanging in my truck with no signs of yellowing yet.

Perfect for Making Earrings
Pros: Thickness of product is perfect. It was easy to use when making earrings with a thin structure. The product is clear (Minimal to no bubbles). It also mixes well with pigments & glitter and cure time is not affected. Cure time 2-4minutes.Cons: Moderate odor when curing under UV lamp.

Love/Hate relationship!
I've been resin crafting for about 10 months now and sell my products in a local shop! I've tested at least seven or eight different types of UV resin, and for a thin type resin this beats most of them in terms of cure time, transparency and hardness. I have found that most UV resins labeled low viscosity typically are more of a medium viscosity. The other amazing thing about this resin is that bubbles are almost non-existent, and any that are present are quickly gone with a quick blast of a embossing heat gun, something that's trickier with other UV resins.. many people use a lighter to pop bubbles but it's very bad for your molds.My issue with these products is the inconsistency or lack of explanation between the different bottle labels.. after testing three different labels of limino UV resin, there is indeed a difference between the different products with different labels.. a question I've seen many times here on Amazon as well as online forums with no clear answer. I first tested a 100 G green bottle and it was very thin and worked perfectly fine with my colorants.. the resin did very well in a extended yellowing test I did and Bubbles were not existent and the resin cured to a glassy finish. From there I chose to purchase the 500 G bottle with the circular pink floral pattern label and quickly found that resin at all of these qualities except for one crucial thing.. all of my colorants regardless of brand or quality quickly either faded or disappeared when cured under my light. I continued to use that bottle but only for clear pieces containing no color. I found that at lower wattage on my light seemed to preserve the color.. but the colors would still fade in the piece soon after.. I've never had any color fast problems with any of my colorants with any other UV resin. I also found that this resident did not hold up quite as well in my yellowing test, and although it is still clear 3 months later it has a slight yellow tinge to it, while the green 100 Grand bottle is still crystal clear 3 months later.Thinking it had something to do with the larger size bottle and different label, I have now tested this 200 g bottle with the rectangular White label. This resin is slightly thicker than the other two I tested of this product and seems to be more of a medium viscosity resin. While there isn't many bubbles, they do not disappear as quickly with a embossing gun like the other two resins, it does cure very well if you have a 36 watt or higher light and is crystal clear.. but is not quite as clear and seem to take on a slight yellow compared to the 100 G green bottle.. and only one week in my sunny window with 6 hours of direct light a day.. it had already started to Yellow just a bit. This slightly thicker resin however is completely compatible with all of my colorants and I've had no problems with that, and all of the colors seem to be color fast and hold their true color.I have attempted to reach limino us over this phenomenon regarding the different qualities and characteristics of the different UV resins they sell under their name in respect to the different bottles and their labels. In my testing and real world use of these products, they are indeed different there's no doubt about that, I do wish that let me know would be more specific concerning the different characteristics of these UV resins.. and if I did receive a bad batch with the 500 G bottle it would be nice to know if this is a common thing with that particular label of resin or if it was just a fluke. I had recently tested another brand of the type UV resin by decorum and found the same thing.. I had the same positive characteristics as the Thin type limino 500 Grand bottle but also was not compatible with my colorants.. despite the fact that I have a set of colorants that is sold under decorums name lol.Overall I love these products but I feel they lack and consistency when it comes to labeling their products, I have a few necklaces made by this resin over 5 months now that I wear and they have held up well and have not yellowed substantially or scratched easily.

Thin and easy to use
This is the second bottle of UV resin I’ve used. This one is easy to handle because it’s a bit on the thinner side but that also means it’s easy to run over the sides if you’re not working on a level surface. You can always sand off any extra resin once it’s cured though. I didn’t use gloves when I used these one time and when the resin cured, I was able to easily peel it right off my fingers (of course I still recommend using gloves). This gives off a mild scent so use in a well-ventilated room.

No fuss, no muss.
I make dog tags and keychains and this UV resin is perfect for what I do! I just bought my second bottle. I used to do 2 part resin but this takes ALL the guess work out and no messes. Very little bubbles and dries clear and hard. I recommend for anyone that's doing small projects or want to get into UV resin.... love love love.

Great product. Easy to use
The media could not be loaded. Easy to use. Made this beautiful piece with it in minutes rather than the hours 2 part resin takes. There was a strong odor, but that was expected.

Eh, it gets the job done. Almost.
I bought this bottle because I couldn't beat the price for that amount of resin, given that UV resin is a bit on the expensive side. It's UV resin, functions as UV resin should, and if you experiment with the amount of layers and how much UV light you put on it, you can make some pretty nice things with it.However, as I don't see it listed anywhere on this page, this is a "thin" type of resin, and my biggest problem that I've had with this brand is that all my projects have warped or shrunk during curing. Not entirely sure if it's because of the brand/quality of the resin or if thin UV resin does that in general, but up until I've used this brand I've had no problems with shrinkage during curing.This stuff is also super-duper smelly, gets INCREDIBLY hot, and it also smokes when it's curing.Overall, it's a pretty OK brand of UV resin, and I'd say it's good for beginners and very small projects, but if you're looking for high quality UV resin with high quality finishes, this isn't it.
